Tourism Tuesday: River's Bend Ranch
Mar 15, 2022
We were on the screen recording today's conversation for Tourism Tuesday - Luray/Page County edition - with Edison from Luray/Page Chamber of Commerce and his guest, Susan Corbett from River's Bend Ranch.
Susan gave us a bit of history for the ranch that her parents purchased in the mid 1970's and originally ran as a school for troubled boys. We talked about how it's evolved since then into a wedding & events venue, hemp farm, and horse boarding facility.
She explained the hard work that goes on behind the scenes to keep the ranch running and praised her staff for sticking with her through the pandemic.
We talked about future projects that she has planned such as adding flower gardens, vegetable gardens & adding additional land for pastures and events. She hopes to partner with local restaurants to offer produce as well as start a farmer's market.
