Buffalo Springs Herb Farm

A friend kindly invited me to accompany the garden club to the Buffalo Springs Herb Farm in Raphine, VA. It's a lovely place with flowers and a variety of intimate gardens and pleasing structures.
You can find ideas for planning your garden here even if you don't grow herbs. Update: They are no longer open. See comments.

Also in the Raphine area is the Cyrus McCormick Mill and Farm, a parklike historic site that's worth a visit. It's close to I-81 and has ponds and a nature trail.

    Please note that Buffalo Springs Herb Farm is no longer open to the public. We closed December 2007. Thanks.
