MeadowCroft Farm is a 7th generation working family farm in the rural community of Swoope (pronounced Swope), named after Jacob Swoope, the first mayor of Staunton and a land developer in the late 1700s. Run by Bill and Judie Croft, the Farm dates back to the mid 1700s and is a diversified operation consisting of beef cattle, sheep and crops. MeadowCroft Farm is located in southwestern Augusta County at the heart of the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, five miles from the Interstate I-81 / I-64 Staunton bypass.In 2013 restoration began on an 1820 two-story hand-hewn log cabin that stands on the property. Shortly after beginning this renovation, the Crofts purchased a 1795 two-story cabin, dismantled it and brought it to the site to be added to the original cabin. As Judie anxiously watched every exterior board being removed she thought, “If only these walls could talk!” Renovations and updates to the adjoining cabins were completed in 2018 and the Inn at MeadowCroft opened to delight guests to this beautiful, historic property.
