The Hanover Tomato Festival is right around the corner! We went behind the scenes with Hanover Vegetable Farm to see how their tomatoes get from the farm to the festival. The farm is supplying 500 boxes for the festival, which is nearly 6 acres of tomatoes! Watch to see how this family farm is preparing for the County’s biggest event of the year. 

Hanover County is nearing the final round of its community engagement events for the update of the Comprehensive Plan, which establishes a long-range vision for the County’s growth and development. The focus of all these meetings will be environment + resilience, community facilities + utilities and transportation.

Results of the meetings will be reported at a joint workshop between the Board of Supervisors and the Planning Commission on July 26.

There will be an informational meeting about proposed sidewalk improvements at Cool Spring Elementary School on Wednesday, July 12 from 6-7:30 p.m.

The plan includes sidewalks, curb ramps, a median and pedestrian refuge island and two crosswalks.
