The '''Wintergreen Country Store''' is a historic building built originally as a country store located near Nellysford, Nelson County, Virginia. It is a one- and two-story, shed roofed, frame vernacular building with weatherboard siding on a masonry and concrete foundation. The store was built in four phases: the original store was a one-story, one-room building with a porch, built between 1908 and 1909; the second was living space added in the late 1920s; the third phase added a two-story section with a two-story porch; and the fourth phase was added by Wintergreen Ski Resort as a welcoming center when it first opened in 1975.
After closing as an office and gift shop for the Wintergreen resort, the building was used as a meeting place for Peace in the Valley, an Episcopal Church mission. Thereafter it served as a gallery featuring local artists. It now serves as the Rockfish Valley Foundation Natural History Center and is affiliated with the Virginia Museum of Natural History.<ref name="dhr">{{cite web|url=http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Nelson/062-0117_WintergreenCountryStore_2005_final_nomination.pdf|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form|date=2008-11-21|work= Wintergreen Country Store|publisher=Commonwealth of Virginia, Department of Historic Resources}} and [http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Nelson/062-0117_WintergreenStore_photographs.htm Accompanying photograph]</ref>
