Out of the darkness of the tragic events in Charlottesville comes one more beacon of light. American Airlines contacted Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville with the very generous offer to fund the construction of a Habitat home this year. This unsolicited contribution will provide a local, low-income family the chance to achieve their dream of homeownership and enhance the mission of Habitat to create safe, decent, affordable homes and communities. “Habitat’s work is made possible by our partners and we are thrilled to count American Airlines as one of them,” said Dan Rosensweig, President and CEO of Habitat. “It meant so much to us that American reached out from its corporate offices in Dallas—without prompting—and pledged to support our effort to build a more equitable and inclusive Charlottesville. The nation stands with us as we reject the hatred of last week and create neighborhoods built from love and respect.” Long before Charlottesville was in the national spotlight, Habitat had worked to help this diverse and vibrant town be more accessible to all families. Like many growing metropolitan areas, Charlottesville faces an affordable housing crisis, and Habitat is seeking to increase the amount of housing, build mixed-income communities, and find new, innovative solutions. American Airlines’ sponsorship of a Habitat home aids the non-profit organization’s efforts to build neighborhoods in Charlottesville where families of different incomes, races, and cultures can live side-by-side. Habitat homes are built with volunteer labor and sold at no profit to local families earning between 25-60 percent of area median income. In the next year, Habitat will begin construction on a record 28 homes. American Airlines is a leader in the aviation industry with a place in the Charlottesville community, being one of just three airlines to serve the

Charlottesville Airport (CHO). It operates a carrier airline, Piedmont Airlines, whose employees will have the chance to help build this special Habitat home—from hanging drywall to painting to landscaping. The volunteers will give back to their community as they work alongside a Habitat homebuyer who is completing sweat equity on their home. American maintains a robust employee volunteer program and their employees committed more than 125,000 hours to volunteering in 2016. “Our mission at American is to bring people together—to each other, to faraway places, to new cultures, and to make the world smaller and more connected,” said Doug Parker, Chairman and CEO of American. “Like Habitat, we believe in bringing people together to build strong foundations for future generations. We are inspired and humbled to be in a position to support the mission of Habitat, and stand with Charlottesville, as the community moves forward in a positive way.” About Habitat: Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville was founded in 1991 by a group of dedicated volunteers who were committed to helping future homebuyers achieve their dreams of homeownership. Since that date, we have built nearly 200 new homes and safely housed 2,000 neighbors thanks to the commitment and dedication of our thousands of volunteers and supporters. In the past

Freefall concerts meet fear with the courage to embrace our eclectic, beautiful community The solar eclipse just passed over Virginia, but Charlottesville recently experienced a different kind of darkness—one that was human-made, despicable, and that will take much longer to recover from. The town is still recovering from the tragic and abhorrent events surrounding the neo-fascist ‘Unite the Right’ invasion. As part of that community recovery, WTJU’s Freefall Music & Art Festival takes on new meaning this fall, with free community concerts at the IX Art Park every Saturday in September and October. “We join this community in meeting fear and suffering with the courage to be. The courage to affirm life and to make our community better for all,” said Nathan Moore, WTJU General Manager. The Freefall concerts, presented by WTJU and the IX Art Park, embrace acceptance and inclusion of all people of

The Community Mental Health and Wellness Coalition is committed to the health and wellbeing of our community following the violence that occurred at the white supremacist rallies on August 11 and 12. While there is no standard way of processing or expressing feelings of grief, fear, and anxiety, there are proven ways to reduce trauma such as reaching out for mental health support. The Help Happens Here website and information line are important community resources for local residents struggling with the violence that has affected our community. Help Happens Here is a public awareness campaign spearheaded by the Community Mental Health and Wellness Coalition. The Help Happens Here campaign connects residents to local providers that offer free or affordable care through the Help Happens Here website, www.helphappenshere. org, and through an information and referral line (434-227-0641). The referral line is answered Monday-Friday between the hours of 9a.m. and 4p.m., but residents can call after hours and leave a message that will be returned within one business day. All calls are confidential and can be anonymous if you prefer not to identify yourself. Reaching out for assistance after a traumatic event is important, and the Help Happens Here referral line can direct you to current information about services in our community, including services for individuals who are uninsured or underinsured, as well as

early 50,000 people live in Charlottesville, and the fun starts when they get hungry. There is no “bored mouth” syndrome here in “C-ville”—not with taquerias and smokehouses, bistros and sushi bars, inns and noodle counters, highend pizza and burger joints to choose from. Not with Chinese, French, Italian, Indian, Irish, Japanese, Korean, Mediterranean, Thai and Vietnamese cuisine. . .have we left any out? No doubt. From organic markets to diners, from food trucks to pop-up restaurants, Charlottesville is an exciting city for environmentally responsible, health conscious and adventurous eaters, and the creative and conscientious professionals that make it so.
“Charlottesville is on a very short list of best places to live if you want to make food an important part of your life,” says Matt Rohdie, whose company, whimsically named Carpe Donut, has been delighting kids and adults for ten years now. “It’s one of the hubs of the country for exploring the idea of artisanal ingredients, exploring the components of organic and local sourcing. It’s striking—not just the sheer number, but the range of foods that are available.”

Timbercreek Market
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
FEATURE
Another market putting food on local tables is Zach and Sara Miller’s Timbercreek Market, in the historic 1939 Coca-Cola building on Preston Avenue. Talk about local: all the meat the Millers sell—pastured pork, chicken, and duck, and grass-fed beef and lamb—comes directly from their own farm, only seven miles away, or farms they lease. All their produce is locally grown in the Albemarle County area. “Timbercreek Farm was based on taking a family farm and putting it back to use,” Sara Miller says. “Zach and I have been so fortunate to have been given access to a large plot of land close to town, so we really thought long and hard about how we could use it to better our community. The farm had been in his family since the 70s and it was his grandmother’s biggest love, so really it’s in honor of her as well.” While the Millers adhere to humane and sustainable farming methods, they keep their prices down and their standards up by controlling as much of their operation as they can. “Of course we’re not going to be able to be competitive with the Food Lion or conventional products,” Miller says, “because we don’t raise our animals in conventional ways. But direct marketing ended up being very important to us, as well as continuing to vertically integrate our system: having full control of our products, as many steps of the process as possible. In a lot of cases we spend years raising the products— the beef sometimes 24 to 30 months, and to get the exact steaks out of it that you want can take looking at the carcass as a whole and figuring out what is the best use of every piece of that meat.
vendors offer fruit, produce, cheese, honey, coffee, meats, jams and relishes—pretty much every food item that can be lovingly hand grown or handmade, including organic coffee and bagels, Mexican tacos, and Filipino, Hawaiian and Caribbean cuisine. Other vendors sell soap, candles, jewelry, and other arts and crafts. A University of Virginia study estimated that over 5,500 people (not including babes in arms) come browse,
buy and socialize each week. “The Market is an amazing community event,” says city Business Division Manager William Bassett. “How great is it to be able to talk to the actual person who planted the seeds and grew the plants until finally the plants produced the crop?” WTJU radio comes to the Market every fourth Saturday of the month, and local musicians play sometimes as well. From May through September many local farmers also offer their pro-
For us it’s really about a nose to tail, whole animal butcher shop.” It’s a concept that’s found wide appeal. “I’m very proud to say that at any given time you could walk into my shop and you could find a woman in her 60s, a college kid, and a person from our neighborhood.” Some of those customers come for the pot pies, shepherd’s pies, cottage pies and lasagnas, all made in house and sold frozen. But only ten percent of Timbercreek’s business is direct sales to consumers; the other ninety percent is wholesale marketing to restaurants, including such local favorites as Citizen Burger, The Whiskey Jar, and Revolutionary Soup on the Mall, Brasserie Saisson on East Main Street, and Michael’s Bistro on the Corner.
The Spice Diva While Timbercreek has local roots, Phyllis Hunter came to Charlottesville six years ago by way of West Texas, New York and Virginia Beach. “I wanted to do something with food when we moved here,” Hunter says. “I had decided that.” It was on a visit to her son in California that she decided exactly what. “He took us to the city market in Napa and there was a spice shop there,” Hunter remembers, “and we bought several things and the next day we went back and bought several more. And I said, ‘That’s what I’m doing when I move to Charlottesville.’” Today Hunter owns The Spice Diva in Main Street Market on West Main, where herbs and spices sit on the shelves next to chilies, curries, rubs, salts, extracts, teas, and dried fruits and flowers.

59 Towler Way Wonderful vintage 3 BR, 2 BA farmhouse,
shop stocks oils and vinegar, beans and rice, chocolates and gelato as well. So what does a spice diva sell the most of? Well what’s the perennially top-selling ice cream? (Vanilla, not rum raisin or salted caramel.) “Definitely black peppercorn,” Hunter says. “We have several kinds of those.” Shoppers come for the pepper, and the Saigon cinnamon and Honey Rub, Hunter’s other top seller, but the names—French Grey Sea Salt, Asian Smoked Tea Rub—colors and aromas of the hundreds of other items are hard to resist. The Spice Diva offers cooking classes once or twice a week, September through December and January through May, usually by one of the area’s talented young chefs. Tomas Rahal of Mas, Melissa Close-Hart of Palladio at Barboursville Vineyards, Adam Spaar of Orzo have all taught there.
“Paleterias in Mexico are like McDonald’s here,” Polania says. “You can find one on every corner. This artisanal type with the fruit is from Michoacán, Mexico, it’s number one in Mexico.” Polania moved to Charlottesville almost 20 years ago, but didn’t open La Flor Michoacana till July of 2014. In the summer he sells a thousand paletas a week. “I’m working to let people know this is the place you can find tropical fruits from Central and South America,” he says. “Eighty percent are natural; we don’t use artificial flavors, everything is homemade.”
Little Manila Fernando Dizon was born in Pangasinan, a Philippine province “about five hours bus ride from Manila,” but it was after his family moved to Charlottesville at age 12 that he started cooking. “I learned by watching my

La Flor Michoacana Sometimes you want something exquisite and exotic, and sometimes you just want a popsicle, but in this town you can have both at once. Jimmy Polania hails from Colombia, but his culinary contribution to Charlottesville, at La Flor Michoacana on Cherry Avenue, is a Mexican dessert specialty called the paleta. Polania grew up eating paletas— popsicles with fresh fruit and milk or water—“but not this type,” he says, only “the classic ones: vanilla, chocolate, with some fruits like passion fruit.” You can find passion fruit on Cherry Avenue, but you can also find pumpkin, papaya, cashew, soursop, tamarind, guava milk and a couple of dozen more, many with intriguing names like mamey and Jamaican Flower. Avocado, lime, cheesecake, and blackberry are some of the most popular flavors, along with chamoy mango—fresh cut mango with a tangy, chili-based sauce.
ed for at least 24 hours, then grilled and served with rice, and pancit (noodles). But egg rolls are his most popular offering. “We go through a thousand of them every week,” he says. Lumpia, they’re called, and they’re about the size of a finger, and filled with ground pork and vegetables—mostly ground pork. It’s that higher meat to veggie ratio that distinguishes Filipino from Chinese egg rolls, he explains. “I worked in banking for seven years,” Dizon says, “but I would never go back to any other job. It’s ten times the work the bank is, but it’s definitely worth it. Working at the City Market is like a family thing; everyone knows everyone. You give them food, barter. It’s a lot of fun. I wake up at four o’clock in the morning to work at the market, and it doesn’t bother me because it’s so enjoyable.”
Lucky Us
parents and my uncle,” he remembers. Dizon lives on a dead-end street in the Fry Springs neighborhood renamed Manila Street, because, he says, “every single person that lives in the street is my relative.” Seven years ago he began manning a booth at the Charlottesville City Market, selling what is still the only Filipino food in the area. Since 2013 he’s also been bringing his Little Manila food truck around town three or four days a week. Dizon sells Filipino barbeque— chicken, pork, and pork belly marinat-
Ambitious farmers, sleep-deprived but contented purveyors of unusual treats—the folks who make Charlottesville such a fun place to eat, Hunter avers, are also among its most outstanding citizens. “These very impressive and talented people are also big-hearted and generous and have a real community,” she says. “It’s not just a bunch of carny-like people who travel around; these are people who have a stake in the community and they are here for the long run.” When a young chef recently suffered a terrible accident, Hunter marvels, “this community raised in excess of $200,000 for that couple in about six weeks.” But though Charlottesville’s a cornucopia for the, shall we say, lay eater, how about for these seasoned professional chefs? “Oh my gosh, definitely, yes,” Dizon says. “Restaurant after
restaurant is popping up here. if you’re a foodie, it’s definitely a place to go and check out.” Culinary standards here “are very high,” Hunter agrees, and the scene is constantly changing. “There is always some new and exciting concept coming in. I have really seen that the people who don’t have great food don’t last very long.” With so much happening so quickly, what might we expect next? “The next trend I see is about zero food waste,” Miller says, citing the WastED (waste education) movement championed by New York chef Dan Barber. “I think a lot of the chefs who are very focused on high quality food are also very focused on food waste and how to utilize every part of everything that they get, whether it’s every piece of the vegetable or every piece of a chicken. People in bigger cities are interested in it and I think that is quickly coming to Charlottesville.” And if it is, then lucky us.

Y
es, we know it’s still pretty warm around here these days, but Mother Nature is dusting off her ski parka. Time to beat her to the punch by preparing your property for cold weather. “For most people, the family home is one of their most valuable assets,” declares REALTOR® Kelly Ceppa with Charlottesville’s Nest Realty. “It makes good sense to maintain it regularly as you would any other asset you want to serve you well for a long time.” Here are some reminders to get your home ready for winter.
Outdoors Walk around the outside of your property, inspecting for cracks or loose shingles on the siding or roof. After dark, look around doors and windows for light shining from inside and mark these air leaks for caulking. Search for spots where critters looking for a cozy, warm winter den might sneak in. (Amazingly, a mouse can slip through an opening the size of a nickel.) Check for ailing trees that could fall on your roof, power lines, or driveway. Forestall ice dams that can cause roof leaks or lead to gutters breaking off from the eaves by removing leaves from the gutters and downspouts. There are adapters to connect to a hose to wash out debris and many leaf blowers have attachments that can blow the gutter clear.
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
Indoors Shinny up into the attic to check for moisture or visible leaks in your roof and repair if needed. If you have some sort of trap door for attic access, cover it with insulation. Replace tired weather-stripping on your doors. For air leaks under seldom-used doors, buy (or make) a “door snake.” This old-timey device, usually made of fabric with a fairly heavy stuffing such as rice or beans, acts as a draft blocker. There are easy directions online. Have your heat pump or furnace professionally serviced right now because that first cold spell finds many heating repair companies overwhelmed. If your system is more than 15 years old, you might be surprised how much more efficient replacement equipment could be. Except in the very coldest weather, heat pumps are effective in Central Virginia. Change the direction of any ceiling fans to blow upwards and circulate warmed air around the room. Ensure your heating registers haven’t become blocked by rugs, toys, or other items.
WINTER’S
Coming! BY MARILYN PRIBUS
Replace your air filters, whether disposable or washable. Consider a filter’s MERV (minimum efficiency reporting value). Disposables generally have a significantly higher MERV and can filter out pollen, dust mites, textile and carpet fibers, mold spores, animal dander, and smoke from tobacco or wood fires. Disposable filters can be vacuumed once to extend their use, but then discard and install a new one. Some people employ permanent washable filters, which means you’re never caught without a filter and, after the initial expense, can save you money.
Safety first Clean dust and cobwebs from smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Install new batteries even if the old batteries still have some juice. For safety’s sake, redeploy them in less important devices. Cold weather can overload electrical systems and create fire hazards. Never use extension cords for space heaters and don’t overload circuits with several
heating devices. Keep flammables far from the fireplace. Candles are cheerful, but can be dangerous if you don’t pay attention to them. Check for lint buildup in dryer vents. Have your fireplace or woodstove checked, especially the chimney to ensure there is no blockage or creosote buildup, which could cause a dangerous chimney fire. If you use your fireplace or stove for emergency heat, be sure you have seasoned wood available in a protected place that keeps it dry. And keep an eye out for our upcoming September feature all about heating with wood. Check the expiration date on your fire extinguishers. Have a family fire drill with a rehearsal about how to actually use a fire extinguisher—without discharging it, of course. Remind your whole family of fire safety plans including various exit strategies such as testing a door for heat before opening it, and especially about a meeting place at a safe distance from the house.
Power outages can be especially frustrating if you are dependent on a well pump or medical device. Without power you can’t use the garage door opener, the invisible fence won’t keep the dog at home, and you won’t be able to recharge cell phones and laptops. (If you have the correct cord, you can recharge a cell in your car.) Electric backup comes in a variety of prices for different applications. Some people opt for a whole-house generator that switches on automatically when the power fails. Others choose one they start themselves to serve essential circuits, but not the entire property. Prepare for outages with a camp lantern, a flashlight for everyone in the household, and plenty of fresh batteries. “Juice packs” which store power for electronic devices often have a built in flashlight. Chemical “snap” lights—also called glowsticks—last up to 12 hours. These are effective to provide emergency lighting in a hallway or bathroom and are far safer than candles. “Deferred maintenance will damage the value of your home as well as its function,” concludes REALTOR® Ceppa. “If you change the oil and repair your car regularly, shouldn’t you do the same (or more!) for an asset that is worth many times more than your car?” Marilyn Pribus and her husband live near Charlottesville. He has replaced weather stripping on the front door and they’ve laid in a supply of fresh flashlight batteries plus a couple of glow-sticks.
