Our Story at Under the Stars Farm
Under the Stars Farm grew from a childhood dream into a 12.5 acre gathering place in Gloucester, Virginia, where owners Billy and CJ welcome guests to slow down, connect, and make lasting memories.
ABOUT US
A Dream Rooted in Gloucester, Virginia
Under the Stars Farm began with a simple childhood dream of living on the land surrounded by family and community. After more than two decades in a demanding corporate career, our founder traded constant travel and long hours for a slower, more meaningful life. A serious health setback became an unexpected turning point, and through faith the family found the courage to pursue the farm they had always imagined.
Today that vision lives on 12.5 acres in Gloucester, Virginia, anchored by a historic farmhouse built in 1842. Owners Billy and CJ have shaped the property into a place where neighbors and travelers gather for flowers, food, workshops, and celebrations. Their goal has never been only to grow lavender. It has been to use the blessing of this land to help others create moments and memories that last a lifetime.
Just sixty minutes from Richmond, the farm is an easy escape that feels worlds away.
What We Believe
Built on Faith, Family, and Connection
At the heart of Under the Stars Farm is a belief that beauty, connection, and purpose grow best when shared. The farm was born out of hardship and hope, and that story shapes how we welcome every guest who arrives. We pour our God given talents into the land so that others can step away from busy schedules and reconnect with the people they love.
That means keeping visits reservation based, tending the fields with care, and treating each guest like a neighbor. Whether you come to pick flowers, gather for dinner, or celebrate a milestone, our aim is the same. We want you to leave feeling refreshed, welcomed, and eager to return.
