Galleywinter Farm, established in 1991, is a healing, horsemanship, and creative arts sanctuary located in Afton, Virginia. Long a source of nourishment and restoration for Gail and her family, the Farm now draws guests and Integrative Health clients from far and wide. The relationships and community built here provide a sense of hope for the beautiful and connected future we create together.
Galleywinter is at the base of the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia, 4 miles from the Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway (where we trail ride), 20 miles from Charlottesville, 7 miles from Waynesboro and Crozet, and 15 miles from Staunton.
Galleywinter, and our philosophy, revolve around the opportunity to connect. We invite you to come here to get away, whether that's finding quiet and solitude to reconnect with self, with loved ones, exploring a deeper connection with nature, or all the above.
