Additional marker topics include the Melchers&rsquo; farming practices, the early canal along the Rappahannock River that helped power 18th- and 19th-century mills in Falmouth and a gravesite for members of the family of Joseph B. Ficklen, the Civil War-era owner of Belmont. The George J. and Effie L. Seay Foundation provided funding for the project.<\/p><p>In Corinne Melchers&rsquo; will deeding Belmont to the Commonwealth of Virginia, she expressed a desire that the property be developed into a public park for the enjoyment of local residents.<\/p><p>&ldquo;We are excited about this long-awaited opportunity to increase the appreciation of local history for walkers exploring our network of trails,&rdquo; said Site Preservation Manager Beate Jensen.<\/p><p>Belmont&rsquo;s trails are open year round without charge. Trail maps are available on the museum&rsquo;s website and in the museum shop. Markers at the trail entrances also illustrate the various routes available.<\/p><p>Volunteers from the Virginia Master Naturalists program hold free guided hikes for the public on the last Sunday of each month at 2 p.m. These hikes focus on native plants and animals, as well as Belmont&rsquo;s historic features.<\/p><p>Gari Melchers Home and Studio is a 28-acre estate and former residence of the artist Gari Melchers and his wife Corinne. The property, which is operated by the University of Mary Washington, is both a Virginia Historic Landmark and a National Historic Landmark. Located at 224 Washington St. in Falmouth, Va., a quarter mile west of the intersection of U.S. 1 and U.S. 17, it is open daily with an admission charge. The museum also serves as the official Stafford County Visitor Center.&nbsp; For directions and other information, call (540) 654-1015 or visit the museum website at <a
