Скачать или смотреть Exploring an 1814 Appalachian Homeplace

Tucked away in a quiet holler deep in Ashe County, North Carolina, lies a hidden Appalachian treasure—the DeBoard Homeplace and farm, family-owned since 1814! 🤯

Join us as we wander through this beautifully preserved mountain farmstead where generations of DeBoards lived off the land. This wasn’t just a house—it was a way of life. From milking dairy cows at the crack of dawn to raising hogs, horses, and chickens, this farm was a classic example of Appalachian self-sufficiency at its finest. 🐮🐷🐴

We’ll explore the old homeplace, outbuildings, and rolling pastures while sharing stories of life in the mountains before electricity, internet, or even paved roads. It’s a living reminder of the grit, grace, and hard work that defined Appalachian families for generations.
