This Virginia Farm Store Is A Hidden Gem For Grass-Fed Beef, Farm-Fresh Eggs And Local Foods

A farm store with its own playground, so the kids can swing and climb while you shop for steaks? That alone got my attention, and honestly, it should get yours too. The beef here comes from the family’s own Black Angus cattle, raised on pasture without hormones or antibiotics. It is dry-aged for just under two weeks before being vacuum-sealed and prepared for sale.

The Kauffman Homestead: A Bicentennial Farm Looks at 250 Years

Was he Augustus to his friends? Ethel and Geary Showman can’t be sure. But after reviewing the St. Andrew’s manifest, they know that a German national by the name of Augustine/Augustus Kauffman boarded a ship in Rotterdam, Holland, and arrived in Philadelphia on October 2, 1741. Like so many others, Kauffman found his way from Pennsylvania to Virginia, where he enlisted as a soldier in the French and Indian War. The German immigrant so impressed his commanding officer—none other than Col. George William Fairfax—that he received not one, but two land grants totaling 624 acres located five miles west of Woodstock on what is now Coffmantown Road.

Staunton, Waynesboro tax win opens door to major school renovations

Kristin Siegel spent much more time this election cycle promoting the 1% sales tax for school construction than she did on her own campaign for reelection to the Staunton School Board. "I have put in so many hours just getting the word out to the public," Siegel said. "I am so excited for our students and for our staff members who deserve to have safe, modern buildings." Money from the tax, which will apply to most goods but exempt food sales and hygiene items, can be used only for new construction or major renovation of public school facilities and related financing costs. The tax dollars cannot be used for school operating costs or salaries. The tax passed in Staunton with about 57% of the vote , passing in four of the five wards with only Ward 2 rejecting the proposal. It also passed in Waynesboro with about 63% of voters in favor. It passed in all four of Waynesboro's wards. 1% sales tax a 'big win for the city of Staunton' Siegel seemed more enthusiastic over the sales tax passing on Election Night in Staunton than with her own win where she received the most votes of all five candidates
