Park History Interpretive Series: Conditions of the Enslaved at Temple Hall Farm

The twenty-two enslaved workers at Temple Hall probably performed functions like those at other farms in Loudoun. The farm raised a variety of crops including corn, wheat and potatoes and the adult male (and at times female) enslaved worked in the fields planting, weeding and harvesting. Mason also raised livestock including beef cattle, milk cows, hogs and sheep so the male enslaved tended to these animals as well as the horses kept for riding and plowing.

Picnic Shelter

The farm is home to a large covered picnic shelter with a stone floor, large grill, electricity, fire pits, and nearby indoor restrooms. Birthday Party Packages are also available.
