  • Appalachian life

    I am a huge fan of anything Foxfire. Since a teenager I have been fascinated by Appalachian mountain life in the early 20th century. Such strong, resourceful people gifted with artistic and practical talents. I visited Foxfire Museum in northeast GA. this summer w/ my grandkids and I was not disappointed. Such a wonderful thing for youngsters to experience.

  • Foxfire books are good resources

    There are many interesting details in all the old Foxfire books. I wanted to see what wild spring edibles were referenced in this volume, and was not disappointed.
