CULPEPER CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: Hot Blossom Music Festival: Summer Blooms and Hot New Bands

A e stock 01

Culpeper Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on July 13

Wollam Gardens, one of America's most historic flower farms, is hosting an outdoor music festival on their stunning, 11-acres in Jeffersonton, Virginia. This festival celebrates some of the area’s best emerging bands surrounded by peak summer blooms.

The dynamic festival will feature a full day of pop, rock, folk and jazz in a hand-built, beautiful timber-framed pavilion, as well as food vendors (including a vegan option), local craft beer, and shaved ice to keep everyone cool. There will be farm tours and a make-your-own-flower crown station.

"Wollam is our favorite place for a weekend getaway from the city. It's pristine, full of flowers, and has endless paths to stroll on the grounds. The farm staff make us feel like family every time we come for a visit, and we always leave with absolutely magnificent photos. Our kids love it, too. They feel so free there, and they always learn something new about nature," says Allison Smith, a frequent guest at the 18th-century farmhouse.

The festival will be held Saturday, August 14th, from 12:00 noon - 7pm. Tickets are limited, provide access to all the bands and activities, and are available on their website for $25, or at the gate if available, the day of, for $35. Festival attendees can purchase a ticket for their leashed pet for $10.

“We are known for our events here. Everyone gets the chance to experience the flowers, hands-on at the flower-crown station. And the view of endless blossoms is breathtaking.” says Wollam Gardens’ Venue & Events Manager, Joseph P. Harris.

Wollam Gardens was founded in 1988 on a property dating to 1747. It’s the gem of Jeffersonton, a short drive from both Culpeper and Warrenton.
