Who we are
The free community events calendar for Farmville and the Heart of Virginia, from your hometown radio station, WFLO.
Ask anyone around Farmville what’s going on this weekend and you’ll get a dozen answers from a dozen places: a flyer at the grocery store, a Facebook post, a church bulletin, a sign on Main Street. Good events were happening every week, but people kept missing them.
In 2024, WFLO Radio set out to fix that. We launched Farmville Now, one free calendar where anyone can find what’s happening nearby and anyone can share their event. We built it with creative partner Ilsa Loeser, who shared our vision for a more connected community.
Today, organizers across eight counties post their events every day, and thousands of neighbors use Farmville Now to plan their week.
To keep Farmville and the Heart of Virginia connected, by making it easy for every neighbor to find, share and show up for what’s happening in our community.
New local events every day, from concerts and ball games to church suppers, story times and town meetings, all in one free, searchable calendar.
