Charlottesville Insider: Your Guide to Wineries, Hotels, Events, and More!
Not every town has unparalleled vistas, a Cab Franc made at the hands of the same person pouring it, or Dave Matthews and John Grisham walking by as you enjoy lunch at a café on its historic pedestrian mall—but Charlottesville does.
It’s urban and bucolic, historic yet modern. There are boundless hiking trails, wedding venues, wineries, breweries, boutique retail shops, and theaters (not to mention more restaurant seats than there are people to fill them). It’s for the limitless adventurer, the wine-taster, the music-seeker, and the family searching for a new experience.
At Charlottesville Insider, our goal is simple: to showcase what to do in Charlottesville by curating our ideas about what makes it unique. Follow our insiders to see what’s new, find exclusive deals, or simply figure out how to spend your day in our favorite city.

🥪🏀 We wanted to spotlight the “Ty Jerome” sammie special at @ivyprovisions - chicken, grilled peppers and onions, melted American cheese, tomato, green goddess, spicy mayo, lettuce, served on a fresh baguette. Named after the former UVA basketball star turned Pro, and member of the 2019 National Championship team, $1 from each Ty purchase goes to benefit the UVA Children’s Hospital! Why Ty? A fan of Ivy Provisions, he reached out to the sandwich shop, then came in and collaborated with the kitchen to create his ultimate sandwich! @uvamenshoops opens their season this evening at JPJ against Campbell! #gohoos 🔶🔷

🥩🍯💐 Make a little visit to the Barracks Road Farm Market, and we guarantee you will leave happy! Maybe it’s because you brought home some fresh baked pumpkin bread, or because you stocked up on mini pumpkins and mums to decorate your porch. Maybe you purchased a bouquet of locally grown flowers to brighten your house, some fresh fruits and veggies and some grass fed beef for dinner, or a jar of local honey. The Yoders stock what is ripe now, and feed your family with nothing but the freshest seasonal produce. The best part is that it’s less than a 10 minute drive from the downtown mall on Barracks Road. They also carry a line of Poly furniture!
M-W 10am-5pm

🧑🌾 Here’s a little history…
Nathan and Doris Yoder bought their 15 acre farm in 1999 consisting of 5 acres tillable ground on which to grow plants and vegetables. The farm had one greenhouse and one grow tunnel to start planting in the spring. However in order to support their family of ten children, the expansion of the nursery continues to seven greenhouses where they enjoy growing fresh vegetables, annuals, and hanging baskets. Their markets also gave opportunity for baking various goodies and jams. As of January 2015, their son Luke, and son-in-law Maynard, continue operating the farm as a partnership.
