Appalachian Folklore and Food Culture
Welcome back to the Wanderers of Weird Podcast! This week the ladies are doing their "take two" of this episode on Appalachian folklore and food (and begging the Appalachian Gods to be happy with this version).  Happy frolicking and don't forget to be a good human this week! Non-Profit of the Month SAGE USA https://www.sageusa.org/ In honor of Pride month, I selected SAGE: SAGE stands proudly with the LGBTQ+ pioneers across the country who’ve been fighting for decades for their right to live with dignity and respect. We are excited to work with the current administration (idk if that’s been updated) and key staff in Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco, plus our nationwide network of affiliates, to advocate for LGBTQ+ older people at the federal, state, and local levels. We: - Mobilize LGBTQ+ people and allies when our rights are at stake - Educate policy makers about LGBTQ+ aging issues - Release original policy briefs, publications, and infographics - Lead coalitions that integrate diverse elders into policy conversations - March and rally with LGBTQ+ older people and our allies   Donate Directly: https://give.sageusa.org/give/501252/#!/donation/checkout Our Socials: Buy our stickers: https://brittersells.etsy.com/listing/1859322392/wanderers-of-weird-podcast-sticker Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086927584791 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wanderersofweir BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/wanderersofweird.bsky.social TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wanderersofweird?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@WanderersOfWeirdpodcast Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1Q93WBL150EWN?ref_=wl_share&fbclid=IwAR2XxWoZ6iZUMB27odOqPhbpXv3SWqcVa2pKbVy8mI5Ef1uzF-XWrtXo91s Email: wanderersofweird@gmail.com Episode Sources: https://www.eatflavorly.com/appalachian-cuisine-original-farm-to-table-eating/ https://10best.usatoday.com/food-drink/10-delicious-appalachian-foods-you-need-to-try/ https://uacvoice.org/2021/10/appalachian-foodways-the-tradition-of-foraged-foods-by-mike-templeton/ https://www.smliv.com/food/appalachian-foods-defining-generations/ https://modernfarmer.com/2021/11/appalachian-foodways-traditions-at-risk-of-being-lost/#:~:text=According%20to%20many%20food%20experts%20and%20historians%2C,country%2C%20and%20a%20bounty%20of%20spring%20vegetableshttps://www.hauntedrooms.com/minnesota/haunted-places https://www.smliv.com/food/comfort-food-traditional-appalachian-mountain-recipes/ https://www.painlesscooking.com/appalachian-mountain-food.html https://www.thewanderingappalachian.com/post/legends-and-folklore-uncovering-appalachian-myths-and-mysteries https://alleghenychildrens.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Appalachian-Folklore-Oct-2024.pdf https://www.thecollector.com/appalachian-folk-stories-scary/ https://thekayseean.com/life-and-culture/appalachian-folklore-part-1-beings-and-creatures/ https://www.thewanderingappalachian.com/post/appalachian-ghost-stories Episode Music: Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/danijel-zambo/sunshine License code: NESIFLW7E4Q4WJYZ

“Biscuits, Cornpone and Cracklin’ Bread”
A small but exciting milestone at the Appalachian Foodways Archive: We’ve finished cataloging every recipe in “Biscuits, Cornpone and Cracklin’ Bread,” a chapter from Sidney Saylor Farr’s More Than Moonshine. This is exactly what building a foodways archive looks like—one cookbook, one chapter, and one recipe at a time. And already, the cataloging is turning up things that make us want to know more. Next up: Pawpaw Bread. #AppalachianFoodways #AppalachianFood #FoodHistory #Appalachia #DigitalHumanities #CookbookHistory
