Piney River
Nelson County, Virginia

After a long Winter’s hibernation Saunders’ Farm Market in Piney River is back open for the season. Actually they opened the doors the last day or two of May, but it’s this time of year when things begin hopping as the peaches start coming in!


Music is sometimes played at the market on the weekends and is a favorite for folks dropping by!
