The Piedmont Virginian is a quarterly journal of information and appreciation—of nature, place, and ways of life. For the northern Piedmont region of Virginia—as attested by those who live and visit here—is a special place. Even those far away only familiar with its history must agree. The magazine's mission is to give voice to this special, even magical, place—in the hope that it remains so. The magazine's editorial platform therefore promotes: Historic preservation Open spaces Sustainable agriculture Country values Local Food/Wine Art Sustainable living The Sporting Life ...and so much more! The Piedmont Virginian is designed for citizens and businesses sharing these goals. Affinities, not simply geography, create the Piedmont's unique regional identity. The Piedmont Virginian was founded in September of 2007. Look for us in bookstores, restaurants, Inns/B&Bs, and other businesses in the Piedmont and surrounding areas.
