Plains Life

Farm life just outside The Plains, VA. Known globally as the home of Great Meadow (location of the Virginia Gold Cup and other events), The Plains is also near Long Branch Baptist Church — one of Virginia’s oldest — and boasts Wakefield School, a Pre-school through G12 independent school.
