We all have our own ideas about what “culture” means. Maybe it’s the music we love, the art that moves us, or the way we gather with people who share our values.
But at Chickahominy Falls, culture isn’t just something you attend, but rather it’s something you grow.
And fittingly, the word itself didn’t begin with symphonies or sculpture or café society. It comes from the Latin cultura, the act of tilling soil. Which feels especially poetic when you consider where we live. Because here, on a working farm in the heart of a 55+ Agri-Community, culture quite literally begins in the dirt.
It was Cornerstone Homes who began the careful tilling, laying a foundation of health, wellness, and connection with intention. They built homes, but they created the conditions for something much bigger to grow. The Farmhouse. The Barn. The walking trails. Woodside Farms & Market. The Silo Bar. These weren’t just amenities, but rather the nutrients. Inputs designed to feed a new kind of community.
But like any true culture, what’s bloomed here was never dictated. It was nurtured.
Over time, the people of Chickahominy Falls, the growers, the walkers, the porch-sitters, the jam-makers, the first-name-neighbors, took over the tending. And in doing so, they’ve made this place richer still. Health and wellness, yes. But also joy. Camaraderie. Shared purpose. The kind of soil that supports both quiet personal growth and deep-rooted friendships.
As any good farmer knows, what you plant matters. But where you plant it? That makes all the difference.
At Chickahominy Falls, culture isn’t something we aspire to, but rather something we live everyday. Grown with intention. Sustained by community. And flourishing, season after season.
