Blue Ridge Parkway Shopping Guide

The Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation provides private funding for the preservation of the Blue Ridge Parkway. This funding supports projects with lasting value including the Parkway's educational outreach program "Parks as Classrooms"

In 2005, the Foundation opened an online store to create a marketplace for Parkway visitors to purchase supplies, informational products, and gifts in their quest to Share the Journey® with fellow Parkway enthusiasts.

The store's product line includes apparel, books, maps, souvenirs, calendars, videos and much more!
