This autumn, venture beyond the familiar and discover the wild bounty of Salamander Middleburg. Led by Restoration Ecologist Clay Morris, our guided Foraging Hikes reveal what can be found beyond the trail, from earthy sunchokes to hickory nuts, walnuts, and more seasonal treasures. 🍂

Along the way, discover the ecology and centuries-old foodways of Virginia’s Piedmont region, then gather around a tasting of dishes inspired by the day’s finds. From meadow to table, it’s an invitation to explore nature, and its flavors, in an entirely new way.

⛳️Earlier this month we hosted The Content Cup at PGA National Resort and Team Influencers came ready for redemption.

The second annual competition brought 20 golf journalists and influencers together for two days of spirited competition, starting with a TGL-style showdown at the SoFi Center before heading to PGA National for foursomes, fourballs and singles across the Champion and Match Courses.

After Team Journalists claimed the inaugural title in 2025, Team Influencers took the trophy in 2026 with a 16–6 victory, celebrating in the same location where Jack Nicklaus and Team USA lifted the Ryder Cup in 1983.

Relive the competition, camaraderie and golf from this year’s Content Cup.

🏌️ As we wrap up National Golf Month, we think you might know this finishing hole...

A generous landing area gives way to a dramatically narrowing lay-up, while water, bunkers, and a demanding approach test every shot.

✨ Can you guess the course?

Clue:
Par 5 | White Tee Yardage: 506 | Handicap: 10

⛳ Don't let the yardage fool you.

A crosswind, a narrow entrance to the green, and very little room for error make this short par three anything but easy. Precision is everything.

Can you name this hole?

Clue:
Par 3 | White Tee Yardage: 133 | Handicap: 17

08/28/2026

Beauty can be deceiving...

Water follows this hole almost the entire way, but the smartest play isn't always the boldest one. Find the fairway, trust your approach, and don't let the island green get in your head.

Know where this is?

Clue:
Par 4 | White Tee Yardage: 325 | Handicap: 5
