Apple Blossom Time Shines Over Shenandoah Valley Festival
Shenandoah Valley hosts Winchester Apple Blossom Festival with crowds of cadets, families, and dignitaries. Visitors ride free shuttles through miles of orchards as a festive crown ceremony honors Mrs. Isabella Tyson Gilpin, wife of Virginia Representative Gilpin, with War Department officials attending. Local growers emphasize pride, heritage, and the valley’s apple industry despite marketing challenges and rotting fruit elsewhere in the state.
