Overview
To create something big, evolution of a family business over time breeds multigenerational passions to become actualized. Angela Zielen, Cheryl’s daughter-in-law and professional ballet dancer with First State Ballet Theatre, had dreams of bringing the arts and performances to Kent County. In 2022, she created a 501 (c)3 non profit to The Art Society at Loblolly Acres to follow her dreams of bringing the arts to Central Delaware. Joining them is Cheryl’s daughter, Dr. Megan Epps, who is a local chiropractor with a passion for serving the Delmarva community, to bring to light the full evolution of Loblolly Acres, from Christmas Tree farm, to the go-to event destination and wedding venue in Delaware.
From humble roots to the actualization of it’s full potential, Loblolly Acres has revamped and has evolved into a place with a large vision to serve Delaware. It is a place where the dream wedding can be conceptualized into reality. Concerts of various sizes can finally be brought to Kent County, and community arts, performances, and events can be hosted for Central Delaware to thrive.
