Jarratt, VA

united states

Jarratt is a small Virginia town right off I-95, about an hour south of Richmond. Most people know it as a highway stop between Virginia and North Carolina, though it's also home to Smithfield Foods' major processing plant. The town sits in Sussex County's flat farmland, with US Route 301 running alongside the interstate for those preferring back roads. It's a quick 90-minute drive from either Norfolk or Raleigh.
