About Independence, VA

Independence is a town located in, and the county seat of, Grayson County, Virginia, United States. At the 2020 U.S. census, it had a population of 1,001. It is situated on Virginia's Crooked Road, a heritage trail celebrating the musical heritage of Southwest Virginia. The town and county are noted for the original red brick 1908 Courthouse at the corner of Main Street (Virginia Route 58) and Independence Avenue (US 21), site of the annual July 4th Celebration and autumn Mountain Foliage Festival. In 2021, the town created its first public park in its 115-year history, Town Park, on vacant property opposite the original Courthouse. Town park is home to the Independence Farmers Market, which opens weekly from May–October and online year-round. The market uses a timber-frame, white oak, pavilion completed in 2021 in collaboration with the Timber Framers Guild. Remaining work includes bathrooms, utilities and sitework — as well as a stage. The stage hosts Farmers Market as well as Crooked Road events and is named the Uncle Wade Old Time Stage, after noted musician and Independence native, Wade Ward.
