Frederick County, formed in 1743 from Orange County, was home to George Washington for ten years. The apple industry was for many years its main economic base, but other industries now dominate. At the top of Virginia, Frederick County is the gateway to the great Valley of the Shenandoah.

Winchester is the oldest town west of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It was settled in the 1730s, saw George Washington spend his formative years here, and changed hands 72 times during the Civil War. Harry Byrd and Patsy Cline both called Winchester “home.”
