Stone Soup Books has been bookselling in the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia since 2006. For 8 years we combined our bookstore with a Cafe dishing up locally sourced good food on Main Street. Then we took to the road mapping new spaces for bookselling in breweries, wineries, conferences - anywhere people gathered to discuss new ideas, listen to stories. We took our love of good food back to the farm and re-discovered the joy & pain of a fully harvested bean field, the sound of hawk freedom,  and the good sense of muck books. 
​
In 2020, we gasped. Then following the lessons of the farm, re-rooted downtown in an industrial green space next to the South River where, whether bookselling by web or push-cart, we're still doing it. Inspired by where we are and where we've been, our book specialties include farming, edible landscaping, nature writing, and spirit-filled sustainable living. Children's books, history, great fiction, and local interests also fill our bookshelves. Drop by to browse our various new releases, New York Times best sellers, our gently used books in all genres, and our carefully selected antiquarian collection.  You may also enjoy attending one of our many events held throughout the county; including Books and Brews, Author Hours, Story Times, and many more.
