About the Organization
The Riverdale Farm Neighborhood Organization covers an area in both the City of Roanoke and Roanoke County that strives to create a safe, quiet and clean community where residents live harmoniously, honoring and respecting one another through dialog and interaction.
The boundaries of the organization include the Roanoke River to the north and west, Mt. Pleasant and Rutrough Road to the south, Eastland Drive forming the southern boundary in the Roanoke County and the Roanoke River to the east.
In addition to the neighborhood parks, churches, and convenience stores, other amenities scattered throughout the neighborhood include easy access to Mill Mountain Park, the Roanoke River, and the city's greenway trail network.
