Raise a Glass: It’s Time to Celebrate Virginia Wine

The Virginia Wineries Association likens “the story” of Virginia wine to that of Virginia itself: “a tale of secondary characters from the Old World who learned to thrive in a new environment.” Faced with unconventional growing conditions, generations of Virginia winemakers were willing to adapt and experiment to perfect their “agricultural art.”

This Old-Fashioned Virginia Country Store Has Been Stocking Bulk Foods, Homemade Treats And Pantry Treasures Since 1987

Teaberry gum and Sen Sen still sit on the shelves here. Those are candies many folks haven’t spotted since their grandparents’ kitchen drawers. I love that someone keeps them around on purpose. The nostalgia doesn’t stop with gum. Mallo Cups, creamy fudge, and made-from-scratch dips share space with...

Friendly City Eats: October 2026

Nothing rustles my jimmies more than a wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing farm stand touting fresh, local produce while repackaging out-of-season vegetables grown hundreds or even thousands of miles away. Consider my jimmies un-rustled at Woods Edge Farm Stand. Located north on 42, the grocery and greenhouse reopened under new management in April. It’s the real freaking deal, chock full of local produce, dairy, fruit, meat, tea, coffee, baked goods, honey, syrups, and more.

‘The Debut’ Is the Go-to Festival Crowdpleaser as Jesse Eisenberg’s Musical Comedy Launches at Virginia

Another day, another film festival. I have been on quite the fall festival tour, starting back in Telluride over Labor Day Weekend, back to Los Angeles for a bit, then the sprawling New York Film Festival, then Middleburg in Virginia, and finally, a festival in another part of this large state, the University of Virginia’s 39-year-old Virginia Film Festival (October 21-25). Watch the 'Buddy' Team Explain How They Made the World Fall in Love with a Murderous Unicorn This year’s VAFF program offers 100 films and a smattering of starry attendees, including Visionary Award winners Nathan Lane (“The Birdcage”) and Jessica Lange (“Long Day’s Journey Into Night”), interviewed by TCM’s Ben Mankiewicz, as well as writer/director David O. Russell in conversation with Career Producer honoree Todd Black about their upcoming sports film “Madden,” Aaron Sorkin opining about “The Social Reckoning,” and a talk with “The Odyssey” production designer Ruth De Jong, a Charlottesville native. On the first go-round, it’s fun to navigate new towns (downtown Charlottesville is walkable and charming), tourist attractions (I have not yet checked out Monticello), and complex ticketing systems. The press corps at this festival is slightly less awards-focused than Middleburg (Vanity Fair, Filmmaker Magazine, Vulture,

What Those Tiny Bugs Covered in Dust Suddenly Crawling Across Virginia Walls Actually Are

A strange little bug can be easy to overlook in a Virginia home until it begins moving across a wall where nothing seems to be happening. At first, it may look like a gray clump of dust, a scrap of lint, or a tiny piece of dirt that somehow became attached to the paint. Then the speck starts crawling past a light switch or along the edge of a doorframe, revealing several moving legs beneath its uneven covering.
