This Week at Ivy Creek
Sunday, June 30 | 10:00am
Farm and Barn History Hours
Join us for the opening of the barn at Ivy Creek Natural Area and Historic River View Farm. This was formerly the showpiece of the working farm known as River View Farm. It is also one of the reasons that River View Farm is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, along with the contributions of the Carr/Greer family to their community. Come and learn about the family, their work, and the historic exhibits featuring equipment used on the farm.
Saturday, July 6 | 7:30am
First Saturday Bird Walk
On the first Saturday of each month, the Piedmont Virginia Bird Club offers a bird walk, led by a club member, at Ivy Creek Natural Area and Historic River View Farm. Participants gather in the parking lot at 7:30am.
Birders of all levels are welcome. The club has binoculars which participants may borrow. This event is open to the public and no pre-registration is required.
Saturday, July 6 | 11:00am
River View Farm Tour
Join us for a tour of historic River View Farm. Founded by Hugh Carr, a formerly enslaved man, in 1870, the farm was later owned by his daughter, Mary Carr Greer, and her husband, Conly Greer, both leaders in the African American community in Albemarle County. Join us on July 6 at 11:00 am at the kiosk to learn about their struggles and successes. This event is free and open to the public but space is limited, so please preregister here.

About Ivy Creek
Scenically shadowed by the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Ivy Creek Natural Area (ICNA) is a 219-acre preserve bordering the South Fork Rivanna Reservoir in Charlottesville, Virginia.
With seven miles of trails traversing a mix of upland woods, pine stands, fields, streams, and shoreline, ICNA is an ideal site to learn about the rich natural history characteristic of Central Virginia.
