Location
Wade's Mill is located in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, half way between Staunton and Lexington in Raphine, Virginia. Raphine is in what was known as "the breadbasket of the South" and five miles from the spot where Cyrus McCormick invented the reaper. It is an hour from Charlottesville, Virginia and two and one half hours from our Nation's Capital, but a lifetime away. There is fresh air, bucolic scenery and breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge and Allegheny mountains.

Wade's Mill is 4 miles from Interstate 81/64. Take exit 205 (Raphine/Steele's Tavern) and go west 4 miles on Va Rt. 606 (Raphine Road). Look for our sign. We are next door to Buffalo Springs Herb Farm.
