HISTORIC GARDEN WEEK 2021

Historic Garden Week 2021 is two weeks away. This year Dolley Madison is giving the Warrenton Garden Club a hand with the Warrenton Tour on Thursday, April 22, 2021. Although tickets are sold out for this tour, other tours may still have tickets available. For more information, visit www.vagardenweek.org. And stay tuned for HGW 2022 when Dolley Madison will once again be hosting the HGW Orange County Tour!
Our Conservation Committee has an important notice about bird feeders. In our local area, the Blue Ridge Wildlife Center is sounding an alert about finches and disease from bird feeders.  Bird lovers are urged to stop using feeders for the next few weeks. Read more about this on the Conservation & Beautification page on our website.
