Nelson County in bloom
If you missed the cherry blossoms in Washington, D.C., you have another chance to see one of nature's spring spectacles. Nelson County is fragrant with apple blossoms - acres and acres of them.
Well-marked signs along 35 miles of country roads will guide you through five county orchards. Pick up a map at the visitors center in Lovingston, as well as information about the area's other natural beauty. Nelson County is an hour or so northeast of Roanoke.
Call (800) 282-8223 and don't forget to roll down your windows.
