PHA has been a HUD‐approved Housing Counseling Agency since 1998. Director Shelley Murphy has been at PHA since 2005, following a long career in the real estate and non‐ profit housing sectors. Jo Olson started out at PHA as an Americorps‐VISTA volunteer in 2003. Sarah Brazelton joined PHA’s staff in 2009, just a year after graduation from UVa. Her proficiency in Spanish helps us to better serve local Spanish‐speaking clients with their housing and financial stability issues. Sherry Gray came back home to Albemarle County in 2010, bringing housing counseling skills learned in the social service arena in New Jersey. These certified counselors have a combined total of 30 years of experience. “We are grateful to receive this award from VAHC,” stated Frank Grosch, PHA’s Executive Director, “and especially pleased that our outstanding counseling staff is receiving the recognition they so richly deserve. They consistently go above and beyond in helping our clients to reach their housing and financial stability goals, providing the highest quality service at no cost to residents of the Thomas Jefferson Planning District.” Piedmont Housing Alliance is a comprehensive housing service provider that serves Charlottesville and the counties of Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa and Nelson. In addition to lending, PHA provides financial education and pursues development and rehabilitation projects to increase access to affordable housing. In addition to being a HUD‐approved Housing Counseling Agency, Piedmont Housing is a Virginia‐certified Community Housing Development Organization, and a US Treasury certified Community Development Financial Institution. Piedmont Housing has helped nearly 800 families become

homeowners, and has provided more than $7 million in down payment and closing cost assistance to first time homebuyers.

SPCA Announces 1st Annual Bow-WOW-Walk On Saturday, May 31st, the Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA is holding the 1st annual Bow-WOW-Walk K-9 2.5K presented by Virginia National Bank to support the SPCA’s lifesaving programs. The walk will begin in Lee Park at 10:00 a.m. and wind its way through Charlottesville’s historic downtown mall neighborhood before returning to Lee Park for a post walk festival that promises to WOW doggie friends. The animal-friendly festival will run from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and will feature human and doggie entertainment, canine competition, treats for humans and pups and a pack of animal friendly vendors and sponsors. The public is invited to register now at caspca.org. Being part of the BowWOW-Walk is so much more than just a single day of fun. Supporters are encouraged to form teams and fundraise amongst friends to support our local animals in need. The SPCA has a goal to raise more than $35,000 to support their programs, including subsidized spay/neuter, animal medical care and humane education. “Participants in our inaugural walk are leading the way to help us save animal lives in our community. This event is completely underwritten by support from our generous sponsors, so every registration fee, and every dollar raised goes to support our animals in need,” says SPCA Director of Marketing and Development. “With help from our animal loving community, we hope to attract hundreds of walkers to this first-time event and have it become a recognized annual event for animal lovers in our community.”

Piedmont Housing Alliance Named 2014 Housing Counseling “Agency of the Year” Piedmont Housing Alliance’s Housing Counseling staff received the “Agency of the Year” award at the Virginia Association of Housing Counselors spring conference held this week in Hampton Roads.

Celebrating History

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

IN NELSON

COUNTY

STORY BY KEN WILSON | COVER PHOTO BY NORM SHAVER AND BLUE RIDGE LIFE MAGAZINE

hat was life like in early 19th century Nelson County? What did it take to cook a meal over an open hearth fire? How were bricks and mortar made? What mourning rituals were observed when someone died? Pharsalia Plantation will celebrate its 200th anniversary the weekend of May 17 and 18 with an educational festival designed to step back in time – and to feast, frolic, and take in the air on a flower farm surrounded by fields planted with apples, grapes, peaches, and corn. Pharsalia’s 2014 Folk Life Festival will bring artists and artisans, chefs and musicians, authors and historians and all manner of aficionados of country living to a working farm in Tyro with an historic home constructed in 1814-16 by a man who served under George Washington in the Revolutionary War. Over 90 vendors will teach and demonstrate skills like basket making, cider pressing, and limestone plastering.

Major Thomas Massie situated Pharsalia’s 11-bay, Federal style, frame manor house at the foot of dePriest Mountain, naming it after an epic poem by the Roman writer Lucan on the war between Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great in 48 B.C. “Pharsalia was originally built as a wedding gift for my great-great grandfather, William Massie,” says Foxie Morgan, current Pharsalia owner and conservator with her husband Richard. “It stayed in the family till the late 1800s, then it had two owners, one for a brief time and another, a dentist, for about 55 years. When he died his family did not want Pharsalia, so it came up for sale and my grandparents helped my parents buy it back into the family in 1951.” “The original at one time included four farms and up to 10,000 acres that William Massie owned. Today it is about 20 acres. It has always been a farm of some sort.” The house, as Morgan describes it, “has four large rooms, with a center hall across the front and a T with a hall and two large rooms and an added large kitchen at the back of

gan says. “Apples were big. He raised hogs. Salt curing meat was big business. William tried everything,” including cranberries and potatoes. “He was way ahead of his time.” Two hundred years and five generations later, Pharsalia is a flower farm, a wedding site, and a treasured parcel of Nelson County listed on the National Registry of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register. Morgan grows annuals and perennials mainly for cutting; her biggest crop is peonies.

saddleback design. They took measurements and pointed out a lot of things I never realized.” Ever the historian, Morgan is asking everyone coming to a family reunion this June to bring their photos of original Pharsalia items, “so we can make a book of Massie pieces and know where they are.” Pharsalia back in William’s day was a bustling, multi-faceted enterprise made possible by as many as 170 African-American slaves. “William had successes and failures, but agriculture was pretty much how they survived,” MorBY NORM SHAVER & BLUE RIDGE LIFE MAGAZINE

Each window has a narrow panel of glass on each side and a wide pane in the middle.” “Pharsalia is an amazing place,” says Steve Crandall of Tectonics II Construction, and of Devil’s Backbone Brewing Company, which is presenting a farmto-table meal and wine tasting there on August 9. “It still has all the infrastructure buildings – slave hospital, outdoor kitchens, ice pits, four-seater outdoor potty – in place. And it sits on this amazing bucolic hill overlooking vineyards and apple orchards. The house is kept pristine. Foxie Morgan has done an amazing job restoring it and bringing in period furniture. It’s a neat asset for Nelson County.” As with any property, historic or not, Pharsalia requires continual maintenance and rehabilitation to be kept in such great shape. “We’ve taken a room at a time, one a year, to restore,” Morgan says. “We’ve documented things we’ve found, like pig and horse hair in the plaster, but we’ve also left things in the wall. We put in a little bag of money and a note – somebody else will find it in another 100 years.” “My parents did a wonderful job of keeping good roofs on buildings. Some things are preserved correctly, and some things haven’t been touched. So I feel like we’re a good teaching plantation. Last week Monticello was here studying our slave quarters. Ours are called

Make sure you step in to see and smell the aromas of early 19th century cooking.” Two big tents on the grounds will save the day in case of inclement weather. Tradespeople will ply their trades in buildings around the property – most of them original – including the weaving house, brick kitchen, smokehouse, and slave quarters. Traditional acoustic musicians Kim and Jimbo Cary will help kids make music. Wandering minstrels Jim Robertson and Corbin Hayslett will roam the grounds and also perform on stage. Octogenarian basket maker Paul Younger will show and sell his wares. Morgan promises homemade oyster ice cream available for sampling “at your own risk,” plus “a chicken whisperer, rabbits, and a sheep or two.”

ways to begin with,” explains Smith. “Rain gardens capture runoff, slowing it down and allowing it to filter through the soil. Plants then play a major role by absorbing pollutants and either holding them, or using them for nourishment and growth.” Rain gardens not only corral some waterborne pollutants, they help recharge our aquifers. It’s estimated that a rain garden helps absorb as much as one-third more water than the same area of lawn.

Here are five easy steps for making a rain garden. 1. Choose a location. Plot your garden at least ten feet away from building foundations, underground utilities, or septic system drain fields. An ideal location might be a place that already seems to collect water. 2. Determine if you have good drainage. Dig a hole 6-8 inches deep and fill it with water. Measure the water’s depth, then measure again in an hour. If it drains more slowly than one inch in an hour, you’ll need to add gravel at the bottom of your rain garden. A bed of at

least six inches of gravel will ensure that you have good drainage and that your plants will not drown. 3. Design your garden. It can be anything you like from a formal rectangle to freeform. Use a rope or hose to test various outlines, until it’s the size and shape you like. 4. Prepare the soil. The ideal mix will include some sand, topsoil and compost. Your local nursery or gar-

5. Now the fun part! Decide on your plants and get them settled in the garden. While you can use trees, shrubs, flowers, and groundcovers in any combination, your best choices will be a variety of perennials native to this region because they already thrive in this climate, are generally less vulnerable to insect pests, and require less care. “There are hundreds of plants and trees that are useful in rain gardens,” declares horticulturist Smith. “Some of my favorites are Butterfly Bush, Virginia Sweetspire, and Crested Iris.” Select plants that are tolerant of both wet and dry weather. It’s a good idea to put plants that prefer drier soil at the edges and the ones that like “wet feet” at the lowest part of your garden. Especially consider varieties that attract bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. Your new plants should receive water about every other day until they are growing steadily, then weekly until they are thriving. Once they are well established, they will probably only need watering during extended dry spells. Now you can sit back and enjoy your rain garden, knowing you are helping the environment at the same time. n

Five Easy Steps to Building a

den store can provide both guidance and soil amendments. Loosen up the soil for about two feet deep. Grade it so the center is 6-8 inches lower than the sides. Make allowances for overflow in the event of heavy storms, possibly a dry riverbed of stones.

Marilyn Pribus and her husband live in Albemarle County near Charlottesville. A large flat area at the lowest point of their property was deliberately left uncultivated and serves as a natural rain garden. CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

rain garden is a planned depression inviting rainwater from roofs, driveways, and sidewalks to soak gently into the ground rather than running off into waterways. The addition of such a garden to your property will add charm and beauty while helping to reduce erosion, flooding and water pollution. “Much of the water in our area is drawn from the Rivanna River watershed, which encompasses all of Albemarle and some of Fluvanna and Greene counties,” points out REALTOR® John Ince, President of the Charlottesville Area Association of Realtors, an Associate Broker at Nest Realty, and President of Charlottesville Country Properties, emphasizing how important it is to protect our waterways. Eventually some of this water even makes it way to the Chesapeake Bay where pollution can affect wildlife from birds to fish and even oysters— which provide valuable filtering for water. “We have built parking lots, roadways, and other impervious surfaces,” says Virginia Nursery and Landscape Association-certified horticulturist Karyn Smith. “Each time it rains, pollutants such as nitrogen, phosphorus, zinc, and even lead flow directly into our sewers and waterways.” Fortunately, as more people become aware of runoff-caused pollution, they seek better ways of managing their property to protect the environment. They install permeable pavers for walkways and even driveways, so rain can soak through the pavers to the soil beneath and eventually into the groundwater. They have larger natural areas in their yards. And some people install a bio-retention area. That’s the technical name, but we think rain garden has a far more romantic sound.

Refreshments will be served. A donation is requested at the door. The Grand Squares have hosted dances since 1985, and members have been invited to take part in a square dance scene in the movie “Altar Egos,” to be filmed April 23. The 40th Annual Nelson County Fair takes place July 14 through July 19 at the Nelson County Fairgrounds on Route 31 East. A $10 daily ticket price provides admission for everything from clog dancing and cowboy mounted shooting, to the Miss Nelson County and Tiny Tots pageants and the Pig and Youth Market Lamb shows. Nelson County is remembering its history this year, and celebrating its culture. Tourists welcome!
