“Christmas in July” – Open Farm Day at Oak Shade Farm in Rixeyville
2024-07-13 13:00 - 17:00 | Oak Shade Farm, 14455 Waterford Run Lane, Rixeyville, VA, 22737, United States
Thoughts of Christmas don’t usually present themselves in July….unless you have a Christmas Tree farm. July is when we shear the trees to shape them for sale in December.
So please come to our Open Farm day on Saturday, July 13, from 1 to 5 pm and we will show you what goes into preparing for Christmas, even in July.
We will demonstrate how to shear the trees, how we make garland, and how we make the ornaments and woodenware that we sell during Christmas. Our shiitake mushroom production, and our weaving loom, might also interest you, and the firepit might be of interest if it is not too hot. Our Tree House shop will be open, and cool, as well.
So please come by for a visit. The farm looks very different in July than what you might have experienced during your Christmas visits.

Lecture Series
2024-07-09 19:00 - 20:00 | Museum of Culpeper History, 113 Commerce Street, Culpeper, VA, 22701
Join us on Tuesday, July 9 at 7 PM as the museum continues its lecture series!
Culpeper County was among the earliest Virginia counties to produce Resolves in 1774. Join us as local historian Jim Bish explores the importance and uniqueness of these resolves. Virginia was the wealthiest and most populated of all of the colonies. Their commitment against the actions of England became paramount in the success of the Revolution. The results of the British disenfranchisement and anger manifested itself in what came to number over fifty local Virginia Resolves. Culpeper’s Resolves served to voice our grievances, but in a larger sense, they served to unite Culpeper and other Virginia localities for the long-term upcoming struggle against England. Culpeper was ready for war.
This program will be held at the museum. Space is limited so save your seat today and then pay at the door! Admission is $5 per person but Museum members get in FREE.
