Richmond native and long time area resident Noel Oliver has been hired as staff writer and photographer for The Kenbridge–Victoria Dispatch and Farmville Newsmedia, LLC.

During his time with Lancaster Farming News, Oliver worked as a Virginia Correspondent for the paper’s Southern Edition, which encompasses the Delaware/Maryland/Virginia region. His work as a news writer, however, began here in the Heart of Virginia.
“I am excited to have the opportunity to work as a member of The Dispatch team and be able to focus my efforts within my community,” he said. “Even though I have lived here all along, being able to cover and report the news of the community feels a bit like coming home”
“Oliver is a great addition to our news team” said Dispatch Publisher, Betty J. Ramsey. “He brings with him a strong connection to the community and a passion for reporting and photography. Readers can expect to see him out and about in the community covering meetings and other news worthy events.”
