Farmington Hunt Club

Northwestern Albemarle County near Free Union

Our territory encompasses the rolling hills and fields at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. We have followed hounds since 1929 and reach into historic southern Albemarle along the Hardware and James rivers. Our country’s diverse terrain presents constant opportunities for great sport with a wide variety of riding experiences.

President’s Letter-Late Summer 2020

This communication comes to you at the end of a unique summer, not just for FHC, but for the world.

So first the GREAT NEWS: Cub hunting starts in just three weeks! We will begin our Cubbing season from Millington at 8AM on Labor Day, Monday, September 7. Thereafter, we will go out on our usual Tuesdays (not September 8), Thursdays and Saturdays.

GOOD NEWS: Despite a delayed start to our off-season Horse Activities, our amazing Horse Activity Committee has pulled off several highly successful events including two well attended Hunter Paces, one Junior Gymkhana, and one VHSA Jumper Show. Hats off to Pace and Show Organizers for demonstrating that with excellent leadership, great volunteers and enthusiastic and compliant competitors these events could be presented in both a COVID safe and fun atmosphere. Thank you to all who made these events so enjoyable and financially successful for our club.
