Take out the papers and the trash during the Orange, Virginia, Trashy Ribs & Blues Festival. If you are a fan of eco-tourism, there is no better way to enjoy a green getaway then to attend this event on June 26.

The day's events begin with a Trash Rodeo Roundup. Gloves and other essential trash collection materials will be passed out and participants will scour the historic Orange downtown district in search of trash. Prizes will be given out later in the day in several categories, and all participants can enjoy the satisfaction of leaving the village's beautiful historic downtown clean and beautiful.

The Trashy Ribs and Blues Festival will follow the event, and you can sample ribs and beers from a variety of local vendors. In addition, the Blues Farm Band will be entertaining the crowd throughout the event.

As for where to stay, the Holladay House Bed and Breakfast offers an ideal location, right in the center of downtown Orange on Main Street. This historic Orange, Virginia, bed and breakfast includes six guest rooms and all of the rooms include a private bath. As partners in the Virginia Green Lodging Program, one-third of the Holladay House's power comes from renewable sources, such as wind and solar. Food items, such as fresh produce, meats and the gourmet coffees are produced either locally or close by. Cleaning products are hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly.

But it's not just about the environment as this Orange, Virginia, bed & breakfast. The innkeepers at Holladay House are committed to making their guests feel pampered and relaxed. The romantic guest rooms, several with a fireplace and whirlpool tub, includes soft, luxurious linens atop the most comfortable of beds. Thoughtful amenities, such as soft robes and hypoallergenic bath products are among the special touches you will find in your guest room. Private, in-room massages also can be arranged, for an additional fee.

This Virginia inn is near to dozens of unique historic sites, including the homes of three U.S. Presidents. There are wineries to visit, antique shops and plenty of hiking, biking and golfing in the area. So come for the ribs and blues and stay awhile to enjoy all the Orange, Virginia, area has to offer.
