On Saturday November 5, a crowd of nearly 700 guests gathered on the grounds of the Historic Woodlawn estate in Alexandria, VA, home of Arcadia's two acre sustainable farm and educational hub. The occasion? The Vices That Made Virginia, our biggest fundraiser of the year to benefit Arcadia and Woodlawn, a National Historic Trust Site. The monies raised on this unforgettable night will fund the continued growth of our farm, educational programming, and the launch of our Mobile Market. We sincerely thank the guests and generous local sponsors who came to support us!
Woodlawn looked magical as the sun set over the crisp, fall evening, and spotlights lit up the estate and grounds. Local chefs and artisans prepared a spread of the season's finest meats, cheeses, oysters, vegetables and other prepared dishes. After the guests sampled the evening's finest foods and featured wines, whiskeys and beers, they could listen to the bluegrass music, take a snapshot the photo-booth, or watch a cigar-rolling demonstration. The air was full of laughter, great tunes, and merriment.
Arcadia's Mobile Market made its debut at Vices. The awesome, bright green school bus attracted guests who stopped by to pay a visit with the team and learn more about the program - even take a tour. Fully stocked with fresh produce from local farms, it was a sight to see. We can't wait to get it on the road!
Many thanks to all of the volunteers, staff, partners, sponsors and attendees who made the event a huge success. Be sure to sign up for our
