Hunting and fishing have always been a big part in Appalachian culture. We learn more about the history of hunting in SWVA, along with going on a coon hunt in Boones Mill, a turkey hunt out in Wytheville, fishing a creek in the same area, and learning more about how Elk were re-introduced to Southwest Virginia.
Bridging the past to present, the show celebrates the rich culture and history of Virginia’s Appalachia by seeing how treasured traditions are kept alive and are thriving today. This six part mini-series takes you on a journey exploring the intricacies of making moonshine, experiencing different Appalachian cuisine, watching logging first hand, and putting needles to fabric with quilting, successfully canning, and even going on a turkey hunt. @PBSAppalachia @BlueRidgeStreaming @BlueRidgePBSEchoTV
