Keep on truckin’, Patrick!

Big thanks to Patrick O’Connell and The Inn at Little Washington for blazing the path of small artisan food businesses. You taught us the importance of supporting local farmers, and showed us how to treat their produce, dairy and other items with respect. It really is all about peace, love and understanding. Congratulations on 40 years!

n September 2nd The Inn at Little Washington will host a food and music festival in Washington, Virginia, to celebrate our 40th Anniversary.

The event will be like a giant family reunion loosely inspired

by Woodstock, which I happened to attend 50 years ago.

We’ve invited 25 of our alumni chefs to prepare their finest offerings, which we will serve in our Field of Dreams (behind the Tavern building) along with beer, wine, fried chicken and BBQ, while enjoying live music, fireworks and hot air ballooning.

At this point in our journey we are able to reflect on the wonderful relationships that we’ve forged in the last four

“center stage” starring in a Patrick O’Connell theatrical production . . . one that has gotten only better over forty years. This weekend the “stage” will be outdoors, filled with Patrick’s extended family of famous chefs and friends.

We hope that you will find throughout your weekend here, as you discover the special joys

of our villages and county, that there is a most wonderful world not limited to The Inn. We are small in population and proud that there are no stoplights, no name brand stores, and a protected and preserved landscape.

So enjoy. Indulge. Have fun and the best of times as you create new and good memories for yourself.

And do come back.

John Fox Sullivan Mayor of Washington

In Rappahannock, it’s a small step from routine to Extraordinary

ESTATES

Rappahannock County an hour west of DC ... A World Apart A treat for the eye and soul with 25% of the County in the Shenandoah National Park and another 25% in Conservation Easements. A beautiful and interesting place of rolling fields and forests, clean mountain rivers and “named” foothills.

No stoplights, box stores or strip malls mar the landscape, and one can see the Milky Way at night! Mountain trails and waterfalls abound in the adjacent national park. Add good zoning, environmental protection and the arts, and one begins to see the depth of this friendly community.
