At Traditions, we celebrate our Nation’s early history by making the most of our Farm to Table program. With this, we supply our restaurant with fresh, seasonal ingredients, many of which are harvested from the ninety acres of gardens in the Colonial Williamsburg Historic Area. This practice is reminiscent of tavern kitchens, which depended on local farms and gardens to provide the heirloom fruits and vegetables included in traditional colonial fare. At Traditions, our Chefs continue the timeless custom of Farm to Table by sourcing local foods from family farmers, cheese makers, beekeepers and fishermen in our neighborhood.

Established in 1926, the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is the not-for-profit educational institution that preserves and operates the restored 18th-century capital of Virginia as a town-sized living history museum, telling the inspirational stories of our nation’s founding men and women.
The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is the largest outdoor living history museum in the world. The mission of the Foundation is “that the future may learn from the past.”
In addition to the historic area itself, the Colonial Williamsburg Company Hospitality Group operates a world-class resort to accommodate one million visitors annually.
