Thank you to everyone who came out to Weston Manor in Bloom this past Sunday at Weston Manor with the Historic Hopewell Foundation!

The weather may have been a little chilly, but it certainly didn’t keep folks away. It was such a joy to see so many families and friends enjoying a beautiful afternoon together.

A big, BIG thank you to La Lavande for bringing their awesome charcuterie cart, Amanda's Bakes and Batter for their delicious cupcakes, St. Elpis Greek Orthodox Church of Southside Virginia for the baklava and other fresh goodies, and Waves Sandwich Company for providing the boxed lunches! Silver Oak Farm provided fresh cut flowers for bouquets, and the petting zoo by Flat Creek Farm brought a host of wonderful animals to Weston! Lamb Center for Arts and Healing provided fun art kits, and a round of applause for The Mags Va. for playing live music throughout the whole event!

We are already looking forward to our next event this July. Stay tuned for details!

The countdown is on! 🌸 We can’t wait to celebrate a chilly spring day! 💐
