Piedmont Environmental Council

Description

Founded in 1972, The Piedmont Environmental Council’s mission is to promote and protect the natural resources, rural economy, history and beauty of the Virginia Piedmont. PEC’s primary service area includes Albemarle, Clarke, Culpeper, Fauquier, Greene, Loudoun, Madison, Orange and Rappahannock Counties.
