​ 2022 King & Queen County Tour

The Garden Club of Virginia’s Historic Garden Week took place April 23-30, 2022, and the Garden Club of the Middle Peninsula was part of it. Homes and other places of interest welcomed visitors to King & Queen County on Friday, April 29th. 

​King & Queen County on Virginia’s Middle Peninsula was established in 1691. This tour was in the lower end of the county known as the Buena Vista District. Visitors find themselves in a forested landscape with open fields and winding roads. All of the homes are surrounded by towering shade trees, and three of the five have sweeping river views of the York or Mattaponi rivers. One home is the site of a ferry between the county and West Point that began in the 17th century and existed for 200 years. Visitors to this rural part of Virginia heard about the history of the area and enjoyed a day of simple pleasures.
