The Solar at the Great Barn is on! We had a little switch flipping ceremony with our friends from Solarsimple yesterday. It was a joyful occasion. The sun even came out for us! Thank you to all our friends who really made this dream come true for Claymont .

Coming up on Saturday, April 19th-- Join us for a Forest Walk & Talk with retired WV State Forester, Herb Peddicord.

Free and open to the public. All ages are welcome, though youth must be accompanied by an adult. Registration is required and limited to 30 participants.

From 12-1 pm, Herb Peddicord will present on the Forest Stewardship Management Plan he recently created for Claymont—an educational retreat center nestled in Jefferson County—including how to conduct hands-on land surveys to gauge forest health; collecting data on timber density and soil types; and how it all comes together to shape recommendations for sustainable forest management. Then from 1-3 pm we’ll venture out into Claymont’s forests to see the plan in action; learn to identify signs of forest health as well as potential threats and challenges; and start to apply the plan’s stewardship recommendations out in the field.

We are proud to announce that this year we will be planning along with Friends of Happy Retreat a tour of Washington Homes in Jefferson County! Please save the date for October 18, 2025. Ticket availability will be announced later this spring.

Right now, we are offering several sponsorship opportunities to local businesses.
