Celebrate National Picnic Month at One of These Area Parks

July is National Picnic Month.  What better time to pack a picnic basket and head out to your favorite park with family and friends.

Part of the Richmond area's draw is our wealth of green spaces.  It's not hard to find a soft patch of grass to spread out a blanket for the ultimate al fresco dining experience. With so many options available, we thought we would help you narrow down your choices.  

Our REALTORS® take a look at five favorite parks and picnic spots in and around Richmond.

1. Armour House at Meadowview Park – 4001 Clarendon Road, Henrico, VA 23223
   When you're in the market for one of our Henrico homes for sale, you'll soon discover why Armour House & Gardens is an ideal setting for an afternoon picnic. Enjoy the view of the Victorian-style historic home located on the grounds. Visit the scenic walking trail, manicured gardens, or the flowing fountain before or after your meal. It's all located just minutes from the local elementary school.  Many of the area's cultural and art events take place here, too.
