Appalachian Earth

The Appalachian Earth Story Box is a journey into a region where tradition, craft, and nature are deeply intertwined. It gathers the flavors of orchard and farm, the textures of clay and stone, and the voices of the mountains themselves. From a hand-thrown cheese board to small-batch apple butter, from the grounding presence of unakite to the stories captured in Sing Me Appalachia, each piece reflects the land and the people who shape it.

This collection is more than objects—it is a reminder of connection: to the soil that feeds us, the artisans who preserve heritage, and the simple rituals that keep culture alive. Light a candle, slice bread for the board, or lather with mountain soap, and you hold a piece of Appalachia in your hands.

Every box includes the stories behind each item and can be personalized with a gift note at checkout—making it as meaningful to give as it is to receive.
