Clermont also serves as a teaching farm for Clarke County Public Schools and supports working farmers through the Extension Service. In 2025, additional best practice conservation measures were added to the farm, including a 780' tree shelterbelt and 21 acres of brush management. The middle school experiential ag program was expanded, and a tour wagon was built to support more farm tours. 2.2 acres of former state highway were acquired connecting cropland as well as expanding equipment/hay storage and wildlife conservation areas. 59843 HISTORIC PRESERVATION: The Foundation demonstrates best historic preservation practices and conducts education programs about them using historic buildings and archaeological resources. Repairs to historic buildings are used as opportunities for demonstrations of best practices, appropriate technologies, and to conduct further research and documentation. In 2025, The Foundation was awarded $747,000 in a second National Park Service grant. The grant honors the U.S.'s 250th anniversary by rehabilitating sites associated with the nation's founding. This will repair the main house interior, five service buildings, and five structures. A similar 2022 grant was completed in 2025 on the spring house, smoke house and main house exterior. Clermont's 2005 National Register nomination was updated based on the 2013 Historic Structure Report. 44826 3734 HISTORY: The Foundation conducts research and education programs related to the history of the farm, its regional and economic context, and the people who have lived and worked here. The Foundation maintains archives of family papers and research materials related to the farm, and collections of historic furnishings, objects, and archaeological materials. All are available to external researchers. In 2025, a new website was introduced, with more historical materials, as part of an expanded digital public outreach program, as well as new social media accounts with daily updates. Community events for physical access were also increased through scheduled Saturdays. The Foundation was a sponsor of the revived county Juneteenth celebration. The research on a rare 18th century chair made locally was published nationally in American Period Furniture. 306210 true true false false false false false true false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 4 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 12 12 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X X Robert W Stieg Jr 5409550102 151 Clermont Land Berryville VA 22611 X Robert W Stieg Jr CEO 40.00 0.00 76163 0 0 Carol Sullivan President 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Cooke Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Lisa Murphy Sec/Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Michael Hobert Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Philip Shenk Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Norma Johnson Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy Dorsey Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rick Bolling Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Roderick DeArment Trustee 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Erin O'Neill Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Turner Kobayashi Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Joseph Whitehorne Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 76163 0 false false false 0 406098 890 406988 Education Income 900099 3734 3734 Farm Income 900099 100675 100675 104409 85102 85102 0 0 0 340704 41944 315970 15333 24734 26611 51345 26611 24734 0 0 0 Cash Sales 900099 50 50 Credit Card Rewards 900099 650 650 700 648544 131020 110536 0 0 0 0 117163 100763 16400 0 42172 42172 0 0 12189 10935 1254 0 0 9825 9825 0 0 22866 22866 0 0 5132 3849 1283 5858 4394 1464 0 0 0 0 0 602 602 0 71846 71846 8094 6725 1369 Farm Livestock Expenses 33073 33073 Education Services 18244 18244 Farm Equipment Expenses 9997 9997 Farm Services & Supplies 2620 2620 1992 990 1002 361673 306210 55463 0 4925 4925 43726 29542 0 0 0 0 41944 79639 79639 0 2028543 522973 1199006 1505570 2892382 3161088 0 0 0 0 4219678 4822708 5266 5402 4625 4626 9891 10028 X 4209787 4812680 4209787 4812680 4219678 4822708 X 286871 297438 18594 -10 X X true X false true false X 6735 10684 20606 42346 406988 487359 0 172160 173620 160770 153762 157087 817399 178895 184304 181376 196108 564075 1304758 0 1304758 52618 56375 76840 83272 85102 354207 0 0 1658965 0.78650 0.75780 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X X X false 1574861 334465 1240396 129285 91239 38046 324397 97269 227128 1505570 Rounding 1 Security Deposits 4625 4626 Part III, Line 1a: If organization elected under SFAS 116 to not report are, historical treasures, o Eliabeth Rust Williams, who created The Clermont Foundation at her death in 2004 to oversee a program of education, research, and demonstration at Clermont Farm (1750), also bequeathed to the Foundation the historic Shenandoah Valley home's furnishings and family archives.
