Thursday, October 8th, 3pm: Thanksgiving in October

My brothers at Thanksgivings Past

As we’ll all be together in October this year while we focus on gathering with family and dear friends, we thought it would be nice to celebrate Thanksgiving early! We've been growing turkeys and squash just for this :)

The weather should be nice enough to set up an outdoor buffet style gathering full of big belly laughs, an abundance of amazing farm-to-table food, and meaningful memories. It's amazing to watch the colors of autumn boldly replace summer petals with a riot of scarlet and gold. Crisper air, warmer foliage, family around the table...

Friday, October 9th: Family Fun Day

A good day for visitors to get out and see the area. I've listed a ton of things to do over on our "Stay & Do" page so check it out. There are also a lot of great hiking and biking spots right here in our community, so you don't have to go far to nestle into a nature walk.

Let's all keep an eye on this for expected openings in the fall:

I might convince Mike to schedule a range day or some other kind of macho axe throwing stuff for those that want to hang out at the farm... stay tuned.

We gather together in the formal garden behind the Hard Bargain Farmhouse just before the sun sets on the Potomac to celebrate the joining together of Dana & Mike.

5:00 pm: Ceremony begins.

5:20 pm: Throw the rice! Light the sparklers! Get your cocktails! Yay!

6:00 pm: Load up for a sunset hayride to the Potomac.

7:00 pm: Farm-to-Table Dinner, live music, sea-stories, and shenanigan's ensue under the stars on the front lawn of the farmhouse.

10:00 pm: Shenanigans secured. Guests depart well-fed and festiv'd.

Sunday, October 11 @ 11am: Celebratory Brunch

Come as you are!

Join us on the farm for Sunday Brunch (and maybe a little hair of the dog!). For some it'll be a farewell as they depart for home. Others will be sticking around and will have an opportunity to experience the stillness of our little farm in the woods.
