It has come to my attention that I am not the only one who wishes we had a Trader Joe’s in Loudoun County. Apparently there is a grass roots effort to attract them to a new shopping center in Ashburn. Hooray! To join this effort all you need to do is fill out Trader Joe’s location request form.
You can fill out as you like, or complete as the masses have suggested:
City: Ashburn
State: Virginia
Comments: Village Center at Belmont Greene
5÷26÷08 UPDATE: Another local blogger has done some digging on this topic. Here’s what she discovered.

I voted…early and often. Well, maybe not “often” since they can track that stuff with all this whiz-bang technology. And maybe not “early” since you posted this request on 4/17. But I voted! Saw your campaign on CafeFreecycle–Rock the Vote, babe!
I live in Belmont Greene and am HOPING Trader Joes DOES end up here!
We want a Trader Joe’s in Ashburn, VA. Belmont Greene, off Belmont Ridge Rd, has a vacated store since Bloom’s closed in Feb. Perfect location. There is a huge demand; I’ve heard people talking about the lack of a Trader Joe’s since I moved here two years ago. Safeway and Giant have gone the way of our father’s generation. We want Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods. A lot of gasoline is used driving to Reston and Fairfax for our shopping. The zip codes for Ashburn have 135,000 residents. It is about time we get what we want.
