Land acquisition in Gloucester County paves way for Virginia's 40th state park


RICHMOND The Conservation Fund has transferred 643 acres known as Timberneck Farm to the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation. This transfer brings Virginia one step closer to opening its 40th state park: Machicomoco.
