Windblow is an unincorporated crossroads community on the border of Montgomery and Richmond counties, North Carolina, United States. Located at the intersection of North Carolina Highway 73 and NC State Road 1003, Windblow is an agricultural community. Windblow is noted for its peach production; it is the namesake for the Winblo variety of peach.
