Good Day. I’m posting in hope of being able to offer some assistance with the community. My company D’Artagnan is the purveyor of sustainably raised meat. We work with the best chefs, retailers, grocers and home chefs to provide antibiotic free and hormone free proteins, mushrooms and truffles. I have experienced the challenge and frustrations from the grocery stores and butcher shops being out of stock on much needed items. For some the option to leave the security of home isn’t an option due to health concerns. Furthermore, if you’re able to find these items online, scheduling a delivery is next to impossible. I have coordinated a program for residents to get free delivery direct to their doorstep via our refrigerated trucks. If you are interested, go to the page I have set up and click on the link

Please ensure to enter Reston in the promo code at check out! I hope to make this program a useful and viable option for the community during this crisis. Stay safe and be well everyone!
Reston's vision is legendary AND sustainable. Senator Janet Howell says it well: "We need to keep reminding people about what Reston is." Our future is bright, even with changes and growth.

Thank goodness I found this site, and what a FABULOUS TRIBUTE to our Reston founder Robert E. Simon. Here is the first a 2-part series interview thanks to "Cowboy" Frank Harrelson Coalition for a Planned RestonRescue Restonand Reston Citizens Association appreciate the genius of this man.
We could use some goats in Fairfax County!
How does your community do w**d and pest management? I know some in my area are still using roundup 🤦🏻♀️. There are no restrictions on it. The problem is, it may be very damaging to human and animal health.

Thanks to Steve Mona and We Are Golf for graciously meeting with members of Rescue Reston, RA and Reston Citizens Association to learn about the importance of golf in Reston and the role the game plays on both the South and North courses. We Are Golf is in DC for the twelfth year to celebrate National Golf Day May 1st to promote legislative matters on the Hill.
What happened to my post from last night? Did you delete it?
There is a Fairfax County Board of Supervisors Public Hearing to "Permit Residential Use with an overall density of 100 dwelling units per acre" to build a 20 story luxury condo building TOMORROW. The building is 1801 Reston Parkway across from RTC at the corner of Temporary Road. From the posted agenda, it looks like they will address this beginning at 3:30 pm at the Fairfax County Government Center Board Auditorium at the Fairfax County Govt Center. There are no road improvements that I can see from the plans but there will be several hundred more people and cars not to mention the aesthetics. I, for one, am going to be there to give my voice and I think as many of us that can, should go and fight these developers & RTC high rises that are pushing out and now hopping over Reston Parkway! This is an "east elevation" I snagged from the submitted plans:
I received this email and it raised a concern. Will the citizens of Reston be represented at this meeting? Is there a plan for anyone from the Reston citizen groups (i.e. Reston Now, 20/20 Reston, etc.) to attend? I think this might be important and Reston should have a voice at this meeting. There is also a survey you can fill out on the webpage to submit your opinions.
OK - You ALL know how passionate I am about protecting our green space . . . and especially our golf courses, in Reston. Please plan to listen to the Kojo Nnamdi Show tomorrow from 12:00PM to 12:30PM.
