Welcome to the Farm!

   Ballentine Farm is a family-owned and operated educational facility located in beautiful Waterford, Virginia. Run by three generations of farmers and two generations of Virginia certified teachers, we are able to facilitate hands-on guided discovery amongst living laboratories of gardens, fields, orchards, and barns, our pond and two educational centers. Ballentine Farm prides itself on preserving the lifestyle of a small, working farm. Our humble twelve acres allow us to offer individualized attention and meaningful learning experiences to visitors of all ages.
