CATTLE DRIVE WEEKENDS

Enjoy a long weekend in the great outdoors, full of beautiful views of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the distance and working the herd at Tom and Pat Seay's cattle farm. This is the perfect adventure for riders and horses of any experience level, whether you've worked with cattle before or not.

Guests will learn a variety of skills from horseback, including gathering and moving cattle and team penning. Riders and horses new to cattle will have time to slowly acclimate to moving cattle on Friday afternoon. All of our guests are treated to delicious hot meals throughout the weekend, cooked right here at the farm and served to you family-style around the long dining table. Guests are also invited to take part in leisurely guided trail rides around the property.

DANIEL BOONE DAYS

In 1759, frontiersman Daniel Boone fled the Cherokee Wars in North Carolina and moved his family here to Culpeper County, Virginia at a time when the population was less than 200 people. Boone is believed to have made his living as a teamster, hauling tobacco grown on local farms, including lands where Andora Farm now stands, and taking the tobacco to port to send across the Atlantic to England.

​

During Daniel Boone Days, visitors can learn more about life in colonial Virginia, interact with local artisans & craftspeople, and explore the farm. Past attractions have included wagon rides out to the authentic living-history American Mountain Men Association encampment, trail rides across the property, talks from historians specializing in local and Native American history, visits to the location of an 8,000 year old Native American village, a presentation by the author of a Daniel Boone biography, and booths where you can see colonial craft-folk in action! Past crafters have included blacksmiths, bread makers, candle makers, fur trappers, potters, quilters, soap makers, spinners and weavers.
