The Preserve

Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains the Locust Hill Farm encompasses 4,600 continuous acres of diverse, wildlife habitat.

History

The ability to hunt the same land as our forefathers is a truly unique experience. Only 90 miles from the center of Washington, D.C., the Locust Hill Farm (LHF) is surrounded by untouched, historic land. The Preserve borders Cedar Mountain where the historic Civil War battle took place in August 9, 1862. Confederate army camps existed on the land so it is not uncommon to find Civil War artifacts such as bullets, belt buckles and cannon balls as you trek the landscape. The Preserve is only 15 miles from Montpelier and 40 miles from Monticello.

The Preserve

The landscape includes 4 miles of frontage on the Robinson River, open soybean and corn fields, hardwood and pine forest, multiple creeks and ponds. This is truly a wildlife haven for deer, turkeys and geese. The land has been in a Deer Management Assistance Program (DMAP) since 1989. This management has led to a high population of Trophy whitetail deer and an abundance of wild turkeys.
