Weston Wildlife Management Area is: a 271-acre (110 ha) Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Fauquier County, Virginia, near the town of Casanova. Although small in size compared——to other WMAs in the "state," it nevertheless features a variety of habitats, including hardwood forests along Turkey Run. Former tracts of farmland are reverting——to cedar thickets, and there are a number of fields around the area as well, divided by, well-maintained hedgerows. Turkey Run provides a water supply year-round, and forms the eastern boundary of the property. Within the area's boundaries is a 10-acre (40,000 m) parcel of privately owned land.

Weston WMA is owned and maintained by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. The area is open to the public for fishing, hiking, horseback riding, and primitive camping. Firearms are not permitted, although a "chase-only" season is available for training hunting hounds. Access for persons 17 years of age. Or older requires a valid hunting/fishing permit. Or a WMA access permit.
