Our Work
The Foundation has been involved in many aspects of historic preservation at a local level. Its biggest and most
important project is the restoration of the Historic Andrew Zirkle Mill in Forestville, VA. The Executive Director of the Foundation
also serves as Shenandoah County Trustee for the Northern Shenandoah Valley Branch of Preservation Virginia(NSV-PV).
Other projects the foundation has been active in include relocation and preserving of late 19th century farm outbuildings, installation
of historic highway markers, and the establishment of historic districts in Shenandoah County VA.
The Foundation has also commented on land use and zoning issues, historic preservation statutes and ordinances and espouses the proper
techniques and materials for historic preservation.
