About the Author
The Foxfire Fund, Inc., founded in 1966 by students at Rabun County High School in Georgia under the guidance of teacher Eliot Wigginton, has been a pioneering force in preserving the rich traditions of Appalachian culture for over five decades. What began as a humble classroom project to document the stories, crafts, and survival skills of local elders evolved into the beloved Foxfire book series, capturing the essence of mountain life through authentic voices and hands-on knowledge. Through its nonprofit efforts, the Fund continues to educate and inspire generations about sustainable living, folklore, and the vanishing ways of rural America, ensuring that the wisdom of the past remains a vibrant guide for the future.
