Building more spaces of belonging takes many partners and a variety of gifts.

In addition to Arlington County, and other faithful friends carrying this project over the years, two key organizations are making this home a reality: Our construction partners Habitat for Humanity of Washington, D.C. and Northern Virginia and HomeAid National Capital Region.

 

We can’t wait to move in and have you over!

This project has our heart and soul in it. We’ve been working on it for years–from pandemic pauses, to on-site archaeological digs, to our two-million-dollar capital campaign to open the home–we are so grateful to be creating more spaces of belonging, together.

We are beyond grateful for the support and encouragement from the Scannell (Reeves) Family, who called Reevesland home for generations. We are honored to carry on their legacy of welcome and care.

Reevesland History

Reevesland was the last operating dairy farm in Arlington, VA. William H. Torreyson purchased the land in 1866, leaving it to his daughter, Lucy, and her husband, George Reeves, in 1898. Their son, Nelson, was born and spent his life farming there until 1955. Most of the land was subdivided and sold. Only two acres containing the farmhouse remain, which Arlington County has owned since 2000. We are thrilled to return it to a family home once more!
