#63 Inspiring Fungus - The Foxfire Book of Appalachian Women - Stories From The Earth Podcast
🍄Today we're going to be chatting about the Foxfire book of Appalachian Women. So let's give a little bit of background info about what Foxfire even is, especially for any listeners outside of the Southern Appalachians.
🍄“In 1966, a struggling English teacher at Rabun Gap-Nacoochee School in Northeast Georgia asked his students what would make school more interesting. They decided to create a magazine, featuring stories gathered from their families and neighbors about the pioneer era of southern Appalachia as well as traditions still thriving in the region.
🍄The students called it ✨ “Foxfire” after the glow-in-the-dark fungus✨ found in the local hills. This spark of an idea turned into a phenomenon of education and living history, exploring how our past contributes to who we are and what we can become – how the past illuminates our present and inspires imagination.”
🌼This podcast asks the question: what are the many ways in which we can connect with nature in this disconnected society? And how can storytelling help us do this. We invite you to journey with us as we explore nature through stories. These are the stories from the earth!
