Our Favorite Websites

 
 

 

Below you'll find the websites of some of our favorite links and other plant-people:

 

 
  If you want to see us in the D.C. area, joining us at the farmer's market might be the easiest way. This is the website for the Fairfax County Farmer's Markets. We attend the Saturday Burke Market every week in the Spring and Summer.
     
  Every year, we bring our perennials, annuals, and herbs to at least two plant sales at beautiful Green Spring Gardens, which is a park in Fairfax County. Visit their website or find directions here.

 

 
  The American Horticultural Society holds a plant sale every year at their headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia. We attend and, along with selling our usual herbs and annuals,  marvel and the incredible grounds and views of the Potomac.
     
  There are two major plant sales at Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens in Richmond, one in the Spring and another in the Fall. We always attend both three-day sales. Come for the plant sale but don't forget to enjoy the gardens (and the incredible conservatory!).
     
  The Maymont Foundation of Richmond, Virginia holds one of the most exciting plant sales of the year every Spring. They call it Herbs Galore and you can find directions here.
     
  Blandy Experimental Farm, which is affiliated with University of Virginia, also holds two huge sales every year, one in the Spring and another in the Fall. We'll be at Blandy's Spring Sale for the first time this Spring, so come out and join us on the grounds of this beautiful "experimental farm."
     
  If you're looking for the freshest cut flowers and the most beautiful arrangements, check out Lynnvale Studios here.
     
  For only the best native plants, go straight to Hylabrook Farm here.
     

  Under the shadow of Graves' Mountain, you can always find interesting perennials at Hollerfolk Nursery here.
     
  For the finest in Neuhaus Belgian Chocolates and anything else for the Gourmet Taste, this is the only place to turn in Culpeper. Our entire kitchen is stocked by the Frenchman's Corner. Visit them here.
  Sara Schneidman is one of our favorite artists. Lucky us, her flagship shop is right down the road in downtown Culpeper. Be sure to visit her gallery for "artwork rich in color, pattern, and symbolism," among many other beautiful gifts. Browse her website here.
     
  The Windmore Foundation for the Arts is Culpeper's patron of theatre, art education, dance, literature, music, and visual arts. Their offices, a former dairy farm, are right around the corner. Check their schedule for shows and events here.
 
     
  For all the news about what's happening around Culpeper County, turn to the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce (and it's associate, the Culpeper County Board of Tourism). We're happy members. Enjoy their online resources here.
     

  The place for locally made art near Charlottesville. The Barnswallow has some of the most beautiful (and useful) pottery we've seen.  Not to mention great taste. This place is gorgeous.
