Forget Taco Tuesday, how about tacos every day? For breakfast, lunch, dinner or even a late-night snack, tacos deliver a burst of flavor in a handy, edible wrapper. Tacos are so popular, we think you could travel the state and have a taco at every stop. With that in mind, we thought we’d explore a Virginia Taco Trail. Dreaming of tacos, we took to social media and asked our followers to give a shout out to their favorite place, and y’all definitely delivered. So here goes! The official Virginia Foodie Taco Trail:

The holiday season revolves around our favorite thing – food. We spend much of our time cooking, eating, and thinking about cooking and eating. We’ve tapped the minds of some of the state’s leading culinary lights for some unique, scrumptious, and hearty inspiration for your holiday feasts. Dig in and start cooking

There’s no better way to spend a day in Virginia than by getting the heart rate up and then tending to your appetite! Here at VA Foodie, we’ve put together a list of options for outdoor recreation—from city streets to Appalachian wilderness—paired with a fuel-up or cool-down meal in every region of the state. 

Did you know that a thriving chestnut orchard is growing in the foothills of the blue ridge mountains? It’s true! Virginia Chestnuts is a family owned and operated orchard that has deep roots in the heart of Nelson County.
