If you need to get outside – which we all should do for our health – please know that our Wessex Hundred farm property and its 400 acres (surrounded by another 2,000 acres of farms and federal parkway) remains open to all.* This is one of the huge things that we can do for our community – offering a dose of fresh air free from pollution. Come and walk, hike or run. You do not need to be a customer, just come enjoy.
Please continue to practice good hygiene, social distancing and common sense as we all navigate these current events.
We would like to think that the measures being taken will result in an abatement of this sad crisis and we keep our prayers for those most threatened by this unfortunate disease.
* All gathering places including the outdoor pavilion and picnic areas are closed. Groups of more than 10 people are not allowed as we adhere to guidance on how to limit the spread of novel coronavirus COVID-19.
