About Floyd

Floyd County is a region of rural pastoral beauty. It contains the longest section of the Blue Ridge Parkway of any county in Virginia. High on this plateau, vistas range from rolling meadows, to scenic mountain views. In the town of Floyd, the only traffic light in the county is near several interesting eateries, a country hardware store, antique stores, and other shops. Floyd has local wineries and a gourmet and health food store. The Floyd Country Store has Appalachian mountain music spilling into the street every Friday night. The Crooked Trail, Virginia's music heritage parkway, also meanders through the county. The natural beauty of waterfalls, mountain meadows, and the winding Little River can be found everywhere.

About Montgomery County

Montgomery County hosts both the cultural diversity of Virginia Tech, and the beauty of rural farmland and rolling hills. The county lies in the broad picturesque area between the Appalachian Plateau and the Blue Ridge Mountains. In downtown Blacksburg (the home of Virginia Tech), you can find a range of restaurants and coffee shops: try the great breakfast at Gillies or the pizza at The Cellar. On weekends there is live music and a farmer's market. Minutes outside of Blacksburg there is beautiful Ellett Valley. Mountains rise on either side of you, nestling within them country homes and fields of sheep and horses. The New River edges the county and provides great fishing, canoeing, swimming and tubing.  Where ever you go in the county, enjoy the wild blooming dogwoods and redbuds in the spring and the collage of colors in the changing leaves autumn.
