Great Country Farm is hosting an in-person egg hunt. This year’s egg hunts will be by time slot so guests can enjoy a relaxed, socially distanced hunt for treasures.
The egg hunts are broken down into two age groups. There is one for 2 & 3 year olds and one for 4 to 10 year olds. The egg hunts includes up to 25 treat filled eggs per child. One adult may enter the hunt area to assist their child.

What’s better than waking up with the kids on Easter morning to discover your yard is covered in brightly colored, candy and trinket filled eggs? Not having to sneak outside and scatter eggs yourself without getting caught is certainly a big help!
For a $50 donation, Friends of Loudoun County Animal Services will deliver 30 eggs to your yard on Saturday night and place them in an area designated by you. They will text you before arrival to let you know they’re on the way, and again when they’re leaving so you know the job is done.
The bunny helpers are stuffing eggs now in preparation for the big night! Sign up now to secure your spot and to support a good cause!

There’s been a critically low blood supply throughout the pandemic, not just for Inova but across the country, and the instability of blood inventories continues to escalate.
Blood donation takes less than an hour and can save up to three lives. More than 250 blood donations are needed each day to support patients in our community. There is no substitute for blood. Inova is experiencing a severe blood shortage in our community and we are urgently requesting your help. Your donation can save up to three lives. All blood types are needed but there is a desperate need for Type O and Type B blood.
Please call today to make an appointment.
