In addition to his political contributions, Jefferson brought winemaking to Virginia, an art that has become
tradition with many quality wine producers offering vineyard tours and wine tasting.
Horse farms and Fox Hunt Clubs populate the region, bringing horse enthusiasts from all over the world.
Steeped in tradition, the Fox Hunt is exciting for both participant and observer. Reminiscent of the Kentucky
Derby, men in seersucker suits and ladies in straw hats are commonplace at the annual Steeplechase, Point–to-Point races and other horse country events which are highly anticipated and celebrated by many.
Outdoor types find heaven in the Blue Ridge Mountains, on the shores of the James River and in the
numerous parks, rivers and lakes in the area. Hiking, camping, fishing, paddling, and climbing are all afforded by
the natural terrain and waterways. |
