Route 11 Chips factory in Mount Jackson, Virginia
Every so often my father and I stop by the Route 11 Potato Chip Factory to pick up some chips. The factory used to be located, of all places, along Route 11 through the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, but they eventually outgrew the location and moved their factory to 11 Edwards Way in Mount Jackson, Virginia.
You can stop by to purchase chips and other related products, and you can also see the chips being made when the production line is active. It’s an interesting process to watch. And note, I’m not in any way affiliated with or sponsored by them. We’re just another customer.
It’s not a building I’d normally spend a lot of time photographing, but on this day I really liked the clouds and how the sun lit up the building, so I decided to create a photo.
Living in Virginia I’m used to seeing these chips all around. But I’m curious how widespread or local they are. Have you ever found them in your area? And have you tried them?
