HarpersFerryNHP-07-sjs-19 (Small) The Historic Eastern Panhandle was the first region of West Virginia to be settled and is steeped in history. Situated between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Allegheny Plateau, the rolling hills, long ridges and valleys of this region can easily be described as “Almost Heaven, West Virginia.” This area is most noted for its American Civil War experience and for its beautiful and bountiful orchards. Come learn about the Eastern Panhandle, its history, beauty and taste a fresh locally grown West Virginia apple straight from the tree.
