Farmhouse with new roof


Did you know that River View Farm is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places?  Local historical landscape architect, Liz Sargent, will guide us through the research work of a dedicated group of volunteers who support the preservation and interpretation of RVF.  This important and exciting work helps further the ICF mission of connecting people to the past and present by honoring the land, history, and community.    Join us in learning more about the vision and how you might participate or contribute!  

Liz Sargent is a historical landscape architect, and principal of Liz Sargent HLA, a historic preservation firm based in Charlottesville. Liz is a former Board Member of Ivy Creek Foundation and lead of the Farmhouse study group that took the lead on preparing a National Register of Historic Places nomination for River View Farm. The group included many dedicated supporters who conducted extensive research into the history of River View Farm and the Carr-Greer Farmhouse in order to guide appropriate preservation and interpretation strategies for the future. This work continues under the auspices of the Foundation's Education Committee. Liz continues to contribute to this process by sharing her experience working on similar projects throughout the country.
