Clermont also serves as a teaching farm for the local Clarke County Public Schools agriculture classes and supports working farmers through the Extension Service. In 2022, schematic plans for the replacement barns were completed and approved. New public events including a Meet the Lambs with an expert talk were created. Clermont hosted the Extension Service's Wool Pool, allowing small registered wool producers to get their product to a large midwestern buyer. Beekeeper training and public school classes expanded. 53110 0 0 HISTORIC PRESERVATION: The Foundation demonstrates best historic preservation practices and conducts education programs about them for special interest groups, university students, and the general public, using the dozen historic buildings (18th and 19th centuries) above ground and the archaeological resources being protected underground. Rehabilitation of and repairs to historic buildings are used not only as active opportunities for demonstrations of best practices and appropriate technologies, but also to conduct further research on and documentation of the buildings. In 2022, the Foundation received a grant of $472,000 from the National Park Service for the rehabilitation of the Owner House, the Smoke House, and the Dairy/Springhouse, with work scheduled for 2023. On-site tours of the site re-commenced in 2022. Research began on reproducing an exceptional 18th century chair at Clermont as a public educational process. 42389 0 0 HISTORY: The Foundation conducts research and education programs related to the history of the farm, its regional and economic ties, and the people who have lived and worked there. The Foundation maintains archives of family papers and research materials related to the farm, and collections of historic furnishings, objects, and archaelogical materials. All of these are available to external researchers. In 2022 planning began for moving these materials out of commercial storage into conditioned space in the new barn, along with the Foundation's offices, a safer and more accessible space which will also open up parts of the historic buildings for visitors. Website development was continued, as well as research on the original 1750 land grant. 278053 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 0 0 true 6 true false false false 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 false false true false false X Robert W Stieg Jr 5409550102 151 Clermont Lane Berryvilla VA 22611 X Doug Lawrence Trustee 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Norma Johnson President 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Tom Judge Secretary/Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Chuck Bishop Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Clay Brumback Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Cooke Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Philip Shenk Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mia Franklin Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Hobert Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Erin O'Neill Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jonathan Noyales Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Robert W Stieg Jr CEO 40.00 X 73198 0 0 Carol Sullivan Vice President X 0 0 0 73198 0 0 false false false 10684 10684 Farm Income 900099 60880 0 0 Education Income 900099 1432 0 0 62312 56375 0 56375 917449 7204 962302 7380 -44853 -176 -45029 -176 0 -44853 3868 3151 717 717 85059 62853 0 11522 111101 78162 32939 0 26775 26775 0 0 10547 8027 2520 0 10775 300 10475 0 19412 0 19412 0 2671 2003 668 0 3496 2622 874 0 32873 32873 0 0 284 284 0 0 71056 71056 0 0 7166 5226 1940 0 Farm Services 3070 3070 0 0 Farm Equipment Expenses 10024 10024 0 0 Farm Supplies/Maintenance 2608 2608 0 0 Education Services 6400 6400 0 0 28623 28623 0 0 346881 278053 68828 0 16451 19742 11234 4925 37266 37266 85221 76570 1571810 346878 1301925 1224932 3055879 2567085 4507976 3930520 16019 9081 7328 2534 4565 4625 27912 16240 X 4480064 3914280 4480064 3914280 4507976 3930520 -261822 -355327 51365 X X true X false true false X 0 44117 116601 84509 6735 10684 262646 0 231449 237182 191945 172160 173620 1006356 275566 353783 276454 178895 184304 1269002 0 1269002 81363 83154 56067 52618 56375 329577 0 0 0 1598579 0.79380 0.78860 X 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X X X false 0 0 0 652494 135415 517079 608419 139545 468874 153820 67830 85990 157077 4088 152989 1224932 Security Deposits 4625 4625 Pt III, Line 4 Elizabeth 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.
