Come for the Cider...Stay for the Fun!

There’s just something special about a fall evening on the farm—and beginning this Friday, September 25th (5-8 p.m.), we’re giving you a reason to start your weekend at Bees & Trees!

Friday Nights at the Farm are all about good food, good music, a little cider, and a chance to relax and enjoy the farm when the workweek is finally behind you.

There's food!!

Come hungry, because we’ve got you covered! We’ll have oven-baked pizza and popcorn, along with complimentary cider tastings for the grown-ups, full pours and you can even cool things down with one of our cider slushies. And, of course, The Farm Store will be open the entire evening, so you can browse, shop, and stock up on your Bees & Trees favorites while you’re here.

There's music & games!!

We’ll have music playing and games for both the grown-ups and the little ones, but this isn’t one of those evenings where you need an itinerary. Grab some pizza, find a comfortable spot, challenge somebody to a game, wander around the farm, sip some cider, or just sit back and enjoy the evening. The whole idea is to slow down, have some fun, and spend a little time together.

So grab your family, bring some friends—or round up that person you’ve been saying, “We really need to get together sometime!”—and make Friday night THE night.

Friday Nights at the Farm begin September 25th at Bees & Trees Farm. Come for the cider, stay for the pizza and music, and head home with a bag of goodies from The Farm Store.

Now THAT sounds like a pretty good way to start the weekend!

Holy Cow! 
What a Great Farm Tour!

If there’s one thing we learned during this year’s Culpeper County Harvest Days Farm Tour, it’s that a LOT of people are ready to spend a beautiful fall weekend on a farm!

We had a wonderful turnout at Bees & Trees Farm, and from the moment the first visitors arrived, the farm was buzzing—quite literally in one corner of the property!

One of the biggest hits of the weekend was our honeybee demonstration. Visitors had the opportunity to get an up-close look at the fascinating world inside a beehive and learn just how remarkable these tiny creatures really are.

We may be a little biased here at Bees & Trees, but watching people—especially children—become completely captivated by honeybees never gets old.
We send a big ole thank you to Gates & Valerie Bierhausen for managing our hives and being our presenters.

And then there were the falcons!

Our falconry demonstrations were another crowd favorite and gave visitors the chance to see these magnificent birds of prey up close while learning about falconry, their incredible abilities, and the relationship between bird and handler. 

Many thanks to our fantastic farrier, Bradley Justice and his friends, Kim Maddox and Chris Ross for sharing their knowledge and their beautiful birds with our visitors.

Judging by the number of people gathered around—and the number of phones held up taking pictures—we’d say the birds all earned themselves quite a fan club!

Of course, there was plenty more happening around the farm. Visitors explored the property, stopped by to see the animals, shopped in The Farm Store, and the barrel train spent the weekend making its rounds with some very happy little passengers aboard.

But our favorite part of Farm Tour weekend is always the people.

We loved seeing familiar faces, meeting families who were visiting us for the first time, answering questions about the farm, and watching people simply slow down and enjoy being in the country for a little while.

To everyone who visited, volunteered, demonstrated, helped behind the scenes, or told a friend to come see us: thank you. You made the weekend such a success and so much fun for all of us.

As if sunset weddings at Bees & Trees Farm weren’t already pretty enough, our wedding gazebo is now twinkling with fairy lights.

Intimate by design- 
Beautiful by nature

At Bees & Trees Farm, we believe a wedding can be beautiful, romantic and unforgettable without being enormous—or enormously expensive. Some of the loveliest weddings are the ones where you’re surrounded by the people who truly matter, in a place that feels warm, welcoming and special. That’s exactly the kind of wedding we love to host.

Our weddings are intentionally intimate--with a maximum of 50 guests. That means your wedding day can feel less like managing a crowd and more like celebrating with the people you love. There’s time to visit, laugh, linger and actually enjoy the day you’ve spent so much time planning. Small doesn’t have to mean simple, either. An intimate wedding can be every bit as elegant, thoughtful and beautiful as a much larger affair.

And then there’s the setting. Imagine saying “I do” in our wedding gazebo as the sun begins to set over the Blue Ridge Mountains. As daylight fades, the gazebo’s fairy lights begin to twinkle, giving evening ceremonies a little extra magic. Mother Nature handles the sunset. We’ll handle the twinkle!

We also believe couples shouldn’t have to begin married life wondering why one wonderful day had to cost a small fortune! Weddings have become extraordinarily expensive, and we simply don’t think beautiful memories should require an extravagant budget.

Our goal is to offer couples a lovely country setting where they can create a wedding that feels personal and special—while keeping the celebration, and the cost, at a more comfortable scale.

If your dream wedding is less about impressing hundreds of people and more about sharing a beautiful day with the people closest to you, Bees & Trees Farm may be just what you’ve been looking for. Gather the people you love, make the day your own, and let the farm provide the scenery.

Sometimes a smaller wedding leaves room for something much bigger: the joy of simply being together.

Saturday, Nov. 28 | 10 AM–4 PM
Come make a Christmas memory with us at Bees & Trees Farm!

It's B-A-C-K!!

Sarah’s Caramel Apple Cider has returned to The Farm Store!

Made just the way Momma made it--it's been a fall favorite around here for years--and apparently some of you have been waiting not-so-patiently for its return!

Stop by The Farm Store and we’ll pour you a complimentary taste. No strings attached. No cider salesperson following you around. No high-pressure quart negotiations.

Of course, if that little taste happens to convince you that a quart needs to go home with you, well…who are we to stand in the way?

And, for the grown-ups: Sarah’s Caramel Apple Cider also happens to make an AMAZING adult beverage with a splash of Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. We’ll just leave that little bit of information right here.

We've Booked 19 Consecutive Quarters as an Airbnb Superhost!

We’re delighted to share that The Garden View Suite at Bees & Trees Farm has once again earned Airbnb Superhost status—our 19th consecutive quarter!

Since welcoming our first guests in August 2021, The Garden View Suite has maintained an extraordinary 4.99 overall guest rating and has also earned Airbnb’s Guest Favorite designation.

But the recognition we treasure most comes from the guests themselves. Many return year after year—some to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries, and others simply to enjoy another peaceful getaway at the farm.

To everyone who has stayed with us, returned to see us, recommended us to friends, or taken the time to leave a thoughtful review: thank you. We have truly enjoyed getting to know so many of you, and we’re honored that you continue to choose Bees & Trees Farm as a place to come back to.

Country living,
First-class pecking

Bees & Trees has recently purchased a new home to house its 'feathered freeloaders'...which has been affectionately called "Cluckingham Palace!"

The new chicken tractor, err 'palace,' which is capable of housing more than thirty laying hens, has been providing a happy home to 18 new golden comet hens at Bees & Trees Farm since May of 2026.  And, if egg production is a way to gauge happiness, the girls are literally thrilled with their new accommodations!

"It's actually worked out even better than we'd planned." said owner Jeff Gregson.  "We were getting tired of telling customers that we'd run out of eggs," said his wife, Teresa,  "but these new hens are laying a dozen or more eggs daily.  We even have a hen that consistently lays double-yolked eggs!

Chicken tractors, which can be moved to new grass daily, give hens the ability to eat fresh grass and all sorts of healthy insects while fertilizing the field they are in--all while improving flock hygiene.  It's a buffet in the barnyard!

Be sure to get these amazing eggs while they're only $4.50 dozen.

We now carry thick & juicy 
PORK CHOPS!!

The Bees & Trees Farm Store is now carrying tender, delicious and downright yummy pork chops.  Sear them on the top and cook them slow (like above) or marinate them overnight in a baggie full of our Apple Salsa and slow bake them...either way, pork chop lovers will NOT be disappointed!
