Camden Farm sits on the banks of the Rappahannock River, an important tributary of the Chesapeake Bay. The Rappahannock has been recognized as a river of national significance, providing freshwater to the Chesapeake Bay and providing habitat for globally rare plant species, regionally important fish populations and neotropical birds species and raptors. “It’s important to me to be a part of the natural, historical and cultural legacy we leave for future generations, and this partnership gives me the opportunity to do that,” said John Pratt, owner of Camden Farm. “It’s our responsibility to preserve the unique character of the Rappahannock River Valley.”
