The General's mother was a very independent sort, who, aside from her culinary expertise, was said to be the "best horsewoman in Virginia" in the mid-18th century.
The Ferry Farm (across the Rapahanock from Fredericksburg) is where young George spent much of his youth.

Has anyone here eaten at the restaurant at Mt. Vernon? I missed it the last time I was there, but was looking at their menu online and saw several “authentic colonial” dishes. Quite reasonable prices too.
