WMS Map: Harrisonburg, VA Land Use

About Harrisonburg, VA Land Use ....

Harrisonburg, Virginia is located the heart of the Shenandoah Valley and is a sprawling college town, surrounded by rolling farm country, much of which is used for crop production -- corn for chicken, cattle and hogs but also a lot of forages. Heading to the west into West Virginia, you leave the farm country away for the hills and mountains of West Virginia.
