Set against the scenic backdrop of Over Jordan Farm, Working Lands, Working Solutions will feature an outdoor photography exhibition showcasing the stories behind our research and conservation efforts. Through striking images and firsthand accounts, guests will discover how Virginia Working Landscapes works with the community to support farms that benefit both people and wildlife.
Enjoy an evening of hors d'oeuvres and beverages while connecting with fellow conservation supporters, agricultural leaders, Smithsonian researchers and members of the community who share a commitment to Virginia's working lands.

We look forward to celebrating with you.
