Planned services

Everyday offerings with a larger purpose.

Commercial services are planned to support a profitable, self-sustaining model—while creating visible, meaningful roles for people with special needs. Mount Gilgal is also seeking a partnership with the Commonwealth of Virginia to help deliver on-site healthcare, therapy, and education services.

Events & experiences

Projection-mapping and immersive-tech events
Art sales and exhibitions
Themed private events — baby showers, weddings, religious ceremonies, and birthday parties — staged with projection-mapped and immersive-tech decor instead of physical décor
Chef pop-ups — Something Light Supper Club continues, with chefs cooking on-site
Experiential classes for young adults — sip-and-paint, cake decorating, and similar
Corporate events, team wellness retreats, and conferences
Day-pass and subscription access to experience the site

Family & wellness

Beauty services and kids' play areas
Wellness, gym, and swimming
On-site daycare and on-site adult day care
Car wash
A working farm — animals (goats, chickens, turkeys, and cows) and produce (hydroponics preferred) — run by residents with disabilities, who are front and center, selling what they raise and grow
Farm grocery

Workspace & skills

A 24/7 co-working space
An on-site hub and permanent spot for existing disability-employment businesses — such as Bitty & Beau's Coffee — to operate before Mount Gilgal has its own license
Occupational therapy and a broader on-site health and therapy wing
Horse therapy, with riding also open to the public
Carpentry, sewing, and baking taught on-site — see Pillars & Trades

Accessible fashion

Tall and petite sizing
Adaptive clothing
On-site and online retail

Many of these offerings are envisioned to be run by people with special needs—not positioned at the edge of the economy, but active within it.
