BlueRidge Country is a bi-monthly magazine that embraces the "feel and spirit of the Blue Ridge region." According to their website: "Our territory extends from Western Maryland south through Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley of Virginia down into northern Georgia, and includes all territory within about a half day’s drive of the Blue Ridge Parkway. It includes the mountain regions of Kentucky, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia." They cover traditions, recipes, farming, country stores, and "everything that will allow and encourage the reader to 'take a trip home for the weekend.'" According to their guidelines, they pay $25 (for department shorts and book reviews) up to about $250 for major pieces. Original photos (shot by writer) are paid $50 per photo published.
