Cake, champagne and courage were on tap during a recent party at Sheltering Arms Institute in Goochland County to celebrate the release of a new book by a local publisher.

With an eye toward ensuring the safety of local students, the Goochland Sheriff’s Office recently donated 40 bleed management kits to Goochland County Public Schools (GCPS). The kits contain supplies necessary to treat injuries in the event of an emergency and control blood loss until medical help arrives. Pictured here are Deputy T. Carter, GCPS superintendent Dr. Jeremy Raley, Sheriff Steven Creasey, and Deputy C. Bollinger.

Those living near site of proposed subdivision say traffic is a major issue

One by one during the public comment period, nearly a dozen speakers implored board members to carefully consider the safety implications of adding more vehicle traffic to Fairground Road, a stretch they say is already treacherous.

A local developer’s plan to bring 40 single family homes to a 49-acre parcel near the intersection of Fairground and Maidens Road remains in limbo after county supervisors decided Sept. 6 that the best option would be to defer their decision until at least February of 2023.

Journalist’s book celebrates triumph after tragedy

The plan for The Village at Hidden Rock Park, put forth by Truett Real Estate Investments, LLC, will require a rezoning from an agricultural zoning classification to residential. But while it has gone through several iterations—growing from 23 lots in the first version to 47 lots last February—no amount of revision has thus far been able to alleviate the concerns of residents living near the site of the proposed project.

Sabot Village, once a thriving community, has almost completely disappeared. Sadly, only one of the buildings shown here is still standing. In the center of the picture is most likely Mr. O. B. Taylor, who owned the store on the left, and the flour mill on the right. In the background is All Saints Episcopal Church, built in 1884. Prior to the consecration of the church in 1886, it was known as St. Thomas Episcopal Church. In 1935, author Richard Wight wrote “Our home was the Dover Mills property at present day Sabot. All Saints Episcopal Church was built in the front yard by Mrs. Stanard and my father, William W. Wight.”

When many plants begin to fade at summer’s end, its color adds beauty to the landscape well into fall. Visit your local nursery to find the best goldenrod plants for your garden.

By incorporating perennial goldenrod into your garden, not only will you be adding long lasting color, you’ll also be offering nature a helping hand. According to author and entomologist Doug Tallamy, goldenrod leaves provide food to more than 100 species of caterpillars. An abundance of caterpillars is an all-you-can-eat buffet for birds feeding their young. The flowers are a pollen source for 35 species of bees as well as a late season nectar source for migrating monarch butterflies. Its seeds provide winter food for finches, juncos andTheresparrows.are nearly 40 species of goldenrod in meadows and roadsides in Virginia, providing blooms from mid-July through October. It can survive drought, making it an excellent choice for native gardens and in areas of water conservation. It prefers full sun and dry soil. Some species are known to increase nitrogen levels in the soil. And, as an added bonus, goldenrod is deer resistant.

Yellow is a prominent color in the fall landscape, and goldenrod (Solidago spp) is one of the most abundant yellow plants in autumn bloom. A member of the aster family, goldenrod is often blamed for fall allergies, but that is a false accusation. Its large, sticky pollen grains are dispersed by insects, not wind. There are many reasons to appreciate goldenrod.
