Community & Affiliations
Rooted in the Blue Ridge
Autumn Laurel & Co. is built in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and shaped by the communities, organizations, and traditions that sustain Appalachian craft.
We believe that small business does not stand alone. It is strengthened by the networks that support it, the standards that guide it, and the places that give it meaning.
As a member of Round the Mountain, Autumn Laurel is part of a regionally recognized network of makers preserving and advancing craft across Southwest Virginia. This connection reflects our commitment to heritage, quality, and the enduring value of handmade goods.
We are also proud members of the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce and the Lexington-Rockbridge Chamber of Commerce, supporting local business development and economic vitality throughout the New River Valley and surrounding communities.
Our work is further grounded through membership in the Handcrafted Soap & Cosmetic Guild, aligning our products with established standards for safe, high-quality formulation and production.
We are also a member of Visit Virginia's Blue Ridge, connecting our work to a broader network that celebrates life, culture, and small business across the Blue Ridge region.
These affiliations are more than credentials. They reflect a business rooted in place, shaped by community, and committed to contributing something lasting to the region we call home.
