The George Washington Foundation held its annual Volunteer Appreciation Reception on Thursday, October 20 at George Washington’s Ferry Farm.  Volunteers contributed over 11,000 hours of work at Ferry Farm and Historic Kenmore over the past year! Without them, we’d be history! If you’re interested in volunteering, click here.

Thank you!

The reception took place under Ferry Farm’s Great Oak Pavilion on a beautiful fall day!
