Come to the Crossroads with Cooperative Living!
Vint Hill began as a manor home and farm that transformed from a Civil War and early 20th-century estate into a top-secret Army station. After the Army closed Vint Hill Farms Station in 1997, the Vint Hill Economic Development Authority (VHEDA), with assistance from Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative (NOVEC), began revitalizing the place.
