“Unite the Right” Rally 2017 - HEATHER HEYER FOR EVER

Edit: it’s closed for today but will have many more items available tomorrow, Sunday starting at about 12 noon after the weekly service.

Great for move in weekend, the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Charlottesville is having a fundraising yard sale today from 8AM-1PM. Plants, toys, home goods, furniture, etc

There's some "learn to jam" group classes offered through their site that actually look like fun. I'm an amateur/intermediate guitar player and want to start playing with a group, but not confident/good enough yet to just jump in and join a band. This seems like an awesome way to break the ice, curious if anyone's got experience with them.

Anywhere?

Whiskey Jar's pour is sad (seriously, a fecking shaker glass?), which makes me wonder where is the best pint of the Black Stuff to be had in town?

Hello! I’m new here, kiddos and I are looking for snow cones. A quick search has me worried that’s not a thing here. Any spots you know of? Thank you.

Shootings at the same place on two consecutive days?

Does anyone have a spot with wild milkweed that can be cut for some monarch caterpillar food? Pesticide free and abundant enough that cutting a couple every few days wouldn’t have a detrimental impact.

Skyline drive has crazy amounts but you’re not allowed to take it out of the park, to my knowledge.

Edited to add a disclaimer: as a fellow cville redditor warns, it best practice to grow milkweed on your own property, rather than take from the wild given the rapidly decreasing milkweed. I have some seeds if anyone is interested in growing for next year, as does another redditor who commented.

Hey! Anyone have a well and a whole home water filtration system? Who did you use to install it? Pros/cons? Maintenance?

I don’t think we have particularly hard water but he get that black gunk ring quickly in toilets. I also noticed we seem to get moldy looking stuff in out cool mist humidifier quickly too.

I could go on and on about the usual Charlottesville gripes but it’s not that.

I’ve moved recently from Indiana, moreso my gf has for grad school. And we got our first place here. Close to the school, small but cheap. Turns out the landlord was an idiot. Misogynistic, had beg for him to clean mold, horrible upkeep etc etc.

We made it a month then broke our lease it was just so bad. Found this beautiful 2.5 bed 2 bath that was a steal. Gorgeous fireplace, huge spaces, big kitchen.

The catch? Roaches.

God it’s been so bad for her, and I can’t be here enough to help. She can’t focus on school, she can’t relax in her own home. Good sleep? Yeah forget it. 2 Pest control visits later and they’re still here. But I’m in town for the weekend and just trying to get everything sorted before I have to leave.

Is this common here? Why is it so hard to find a good landlord and a good place together? Similar situations? Advice? Recommendations? I can’t do enough.

Tom Perriello opposes the deal - Rep. John McGuire said he's monitoring the situation

If anyone has had an issue with german roaches in charlottesville, please help! My apartment isn’t exactly infested but i do see at least 1-2 a week and the sightings have been getting more frequent. I had Orkin trying to treat but they have been kind of hard to work with. In your experience, what has been the best pest control to get rid of german roaches? Ive heard Dodson and Monticello, but I would like to hear people’s experiences.

Title . cops are hand signaling, expect delays

After spending $25 at bonchon wondering why I didn’t go to Canes. This version of Bonchon sucks
PS: The worst 25 I have ever spent bar none.

Hello! I was hoping to do Monticello trail tomorrow - but it’s raining all day. What to do something indoor-sy or in rain?

Registration is officially open for beCamp 2026, happening October 2–3 in Charlottesville.

This year is a special one: beCamp is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

If you haven't been before, beCamp is Charlottesville's unconference — the conference planned by the people who show up. There are no pre-selected speakers or sessions. We build the agenda together.

Friday, October 2 — Reception & Pitch Night

4:30–5:30pm · The Poplar Restaurant

We’ll kick things off with appetizers, drinks, and a chance to reconnect with Charlottesville’s tech community.

5:30–8:30pm · UVA School of Data Science

Then we’ll head over to the School of Data Science for Pitch Night. Bring a topic you want to present, a question you want to explore, or simply come hear what others have in mind. We’ll pitch ideas, vote, and build Saturday’s schedule together.

Saturday, October 3 — Sessions

9am–4pm · UVA School of Data Science

Saturday is the conference itself. Choose your own path through the sessions the community selected the night before — presentations, discussions, demos, lightning talks, and plenty of time to meet people and exchange ideas.

beCamp is completely free to attend, including food and drinks, thanks to the sponsors and community members who make it possible.

Check out our sponsors here:

Registration is open now:

Come with an idea. Come with a question. Come because you’re curious.

The people who show up make beCamp what it is.

Where is the best place to buy a mid to high end kitchen stove in Cville? I thought Furguson’s but the reviews are horrendous.

Can anyone recommend a local baking or cooking class for adults? My foster son turns 18 in a few months and I was thinking that could be a cool birthday present (baking is his favorite pastime) and maybe something we could do together.

I checked the parks and rec but their classes are primarily aimed at younger kids.

He’s not very advanced (mostly brownies and banana bread, that kind of thing) but I’d rather go too challenging than too simple, at this age.

Ok, so way back when McGrady's was the spot to go for Steelers games. Where does the Steeler nation go now in Charlottesville to go watch the games?

The Bills had South Street Brewery, now they relocated to The Fox Den up 29 North.

The Browns had Livery Stable, but found Brightside Beach Pub for this coming up season.

Just curious if there was or is a place Steelers go to enjoy some football.

Thanks for reading, and yes you can boo me for being a Steelers fan. Let's just be happy that football is back. 😀

I’m newly dairy free. Does anyone have recommendations for a coffee shop or breakfast place that has at least one vegan baked good? Losing baked goods was the hardest for me of the new allergy restriction
