Clover Hill Village Wine Festival, Appomattox

Every year on the third Saturday in August, the Clover Hill Village Wine Festival unpacks for a full day of sipping and snacking. The day features live music, kids activities, and a smorgasbord of different vendors, and proceeds raised by the event ensure the village itself continues to prosper. Here's what you can expect this year:

• Wine: A total of 10 wineries will be on hand, including Mountain Cover Vineyards, Peaks of Otter Winery, Bright Meadows Farm, and more.
• Food: Local chefs will be doling out their eats, including Gregory's Grill (seafood), No Butts About It (Barbecue), and El Cabrito's (Mexican).
• Extras: Nearly 30 additional vendors will participate, too, selling everything from cigars and fragrances to jams, jellies, and exotic oils.
