Floyd, Virginia

“Having grown up in the Blue Ridge, I am fortunate enough to have been thoroughly familiarized with the hippie pilgrimage that has taken place since the early 70’s…..and they’re all still heading to Floyd county. I believe there must be upwards of 10 intentional communities up on the beautiful plateau where Floyd County is situated and the numbers are ever growing. The nice thing, too, is that the population is fairly consistent, that is to say that it’s not really too transient. People go there and they tend to stay. It’s amazingly beautiful, and I’m so glad that it’s just right outside my back door.”
