Important Blue Ridge Mountain Heritage Festival Announcement!


The Food Vendor area of the festival map has been shifted due to building damage to ensure the safety of our vendors and guests. You can view the 2026 Festival Map by clicking here.

My name is Clem Satterfield, and I am excited to become a member of the Alleghany County Chamber of Commerce and part of this wonderful community.


After many years living and working in North Carolina, my wife Carolyn and I recently made the move to the Roaring Gap area, and we are thrilled to call Alleghany County home. We were drawn to the area's natural beauty, friendly people, strong sense of community, and exceptional quality of life. From the scenic mountain views and outdoor recreation to the rich local heritage and thriving small businesses, Alleghany County truly offers something special.


Professionally, I am the owner and Realtor of Cottage Realty, a real estate company I founded in 2002. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of families buy and sell homes across North Carolina. I am passionate about connecting people with communities they love and helping them achieve their real estate goals.


As a Chamber member, I look forward to building relationships, supporting local businesses, promoting economic growth, and contributing to the continued success of Alleghany County. I believe great communities are built through collaboration, service, and a shared commitment to making a positive difference.


Carolyn and I are grateful for the warm welcome we have received and look forward to becoming actively involved in the community for many years to come.


Thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself. I am excited about the future and proud to be a part of Alleghany County.

Annual Pepper Tasting, Saturday, September 19


September 19 features the annual Pepper tasting. While the selection isn’t quite as extensive as our tomato tasting, it’s a great way to taste lots of sweet and hot peppers. Don’t worry, we’ll label the hot ones! We’ll have water, but if you plan to eat lots of hot ones, bring your own milk or cheese. Dairy quenches the heat, water can just spread it around.


100 E. Main St., Independence, VA 24348
