Virginia's Summer Festivals & Fairs

Summer in Virginia means plenty of exciting festivals and fairs celebrating local crafts and heritage, regional produce and music. Let's travel back in time to when life was a little less complicated . . . back to when batteaux floated down river and tall ships sailed into port . . . when fiddle music and flat footin' were a way of life . . . and nothing tasted better than a big ol' ripe tomato fresh from the garden.
