The new trail system, public art project and entra

The new trail system, public art project and entrance are all busily underway at the @shenandoahvalleymuseum this summer, but they still have lots to offer like fantastic rotating exhibits (yes, admission is still free on Wednesdays), great events and the outstanding and surprisingly serene Glen Burnie House and Gardens. Make sure they make it onto your summer agenda this year.

A little bit of early color here at the lake at Sherando Park today. Will this last few days of good rain be the last minute saviour that our foliage season needed? Only one way to find out - wait and see!

Feeling stressed out? Get some fresh air in the wide open spaces at the 36-hole Rock Harbor Golf Course, right on the western edge of #winchesterva in beautiful #frederickcountyva - we just snapped this pic this morning!

A quick video recap we snapped of the annual #celticfestival held in @oldtownwinchesterva last weekend featuring @armstrongirishdance and Winchester Pipes and Drums. The weather was an authentically cool Irish afternoon, but everyone kept warm in all the stores, restaurants and coffee shops. We’ll see you all back next year!

Day one of research for our upcoming blog focused

Day one of research for our upcoming blog focused on our local Mexican restaurants and bakeries found us just down the street from our offices at @antojitosmexicanos.va enjoying homemade tamales and this beast of a drink, a #mangonadas which is made of chamoy sauce, fresh mango, lime juice, tamarind and chili powder. The cuisine is based around owner Israel’s early life growing up near Mexico City. Make sure you say hello to him when you visit, he’s so friendly and a gracious host to his guests! Keep an eye out for our blog - that’s one spot down, 19 more to go before we can finish it up! #discoverwinchester #winchesterva #frederickcountyva @wincvagov @visitshenandoahvalley @vashenvalley @visitvirginia #shenandoahvalley

Another day researching for our new Mexican restau

Another day researching for our new Mexican restaurant and bakery blog, and another fantastic discovery. The tiny no-frills Trigo de Oro Bakery/Panaderia, tucked in the same shopping center as Dazzling Divas Fitness on Weems Ln, turns out these delicious #conchas as well as a variety of other Mexican specialties, and had some hot fresh #churros on the counter when we visited. Keep an eye out for that blog of ours, we're sure having fun researching it!

Have you caught a movie under the stars at the @thefamilydrivein yet this summer? You've still got time - they've implemented an array of safety measures and are the perfect family activity to get out of the house. Enjoy! @visitvirginia @vashenvalley @visitshenandoahvalley @capitalregion_usa #wanderlove #winchesterva #driveinmovie #frederickcountyva #loveva

Take a walk with us right now as we meander through this beautiful row of #peachtrees in #bloom here at Marker-Miller Orchards Farm Market. We just shot this a moment ago. The honey bees are hard at work, and in the early fall these trees will be heavily laden with fresh peaches. Enjoy this moment of zen and keep hanging in there!

DID YOU KNOW that the small spring-fed pond behind

DID YOU KNOW that the small spring-fed pond behind our Visitors Center has a long history? It powered the first grist mill on the adjacent Hollingsworth property, provided recreation activities for the citizens of Winchester, and eventually was purchased by the City of Winchester, using a $30,000 grant from philanthropist Charles Broadway Rouss in 1890 to serve as the City’s main water supply until 1956. It now feeds Wilkins Lake, which borders both @shenandoahuniversity and Jim Barnett Park. 100+ year old dividing walls still border the spring. Check it out next time you’re at the Visitors Center! #discoverwinchester #winchesterva

In need of some pink and green? Just minutes ago we got some very limited stock of handmade #appleblossom mugs by @lightningbughollow , and we still have a few handmade pink, white and green #soycandles and soap made by @thehomesteadfarmva ! Our Visitor Center and Gift Shop are open every day through the weekend, 9am-5pm. We have free parking, free WiFi, large bathrooms and even local beer and wine for sale! Have a safe and happy Bloom!

Here’s a little Monday morning moment of zen to start your week off, shot a few days ago at @bellegrove1797 - we shot a 360 degree virtual tour while we were there, check out our Facebook page to see it. Have a great week!

We were so excited to welcome @abc7kidd yesterday for his first in-depth visit to #winchesterva and #frederickcountyva ! Big thanks to @oldtownwinchesterva , @winchester_ciderworks and @richards.fruit.market for helping make him feel like family while he was here. We’re equally excited to see the finished segment air in a few weeks to help show off how fantastic our community is! #wanderlove #discoverwinchester

Did you ever want to know what it was like to sit in a big #combine when you were a kid? Well, thanks to @westoaksfarmmarket, now your kids can! Yes, this is a real combine, and yes, it has been converted into a slide. Oh, and their pick your own pumpkin patch is just steps away!

We’re almost there! A gorgeous, warm spring-like week is upon us here in beautiful #winchesterva ! We know most of you are still working remote - what’s the difference if that means from Winchester a few days? We promise we won’t tell your boss 🙂
