Did you see that this year’s Loudoun County Spring Farm Tour will be May 17th and 18th? One in nearby Round Hill that we haven’t visited is Old Apple Valley Farms, which has a presentation on bees and sells honey. It’s also veteran-owned. See more—to include recipes–and plan your trip at https://loudounfarms.org/farmtour/. Lovettsville is also having their Mayfest event on May 17th, which puts you in the neighborhood of Georges Mill Farm Artisan Cheese shop and the Bully Goat Farm, should you need some goat snuggles! We can also vouch for the goat milk gelato at Georges Mill being delicious! Memorial Day Weekend brings lots of small town fun to Western Loudoun. This year the town of Hamilton will mark it’s 150th anniversary on May 26th with a parade and festivities at the town park. Keep your eye on our Facebook page for details as we get closer to the end of the month. Bob & Lynne McCann opulaMay 1, 2025 You may have noticed you’re getting the May newsletter a little early.
