This is a cultural preservation initiative rooted in the rich traditions of Appalachia, dedicated to safeguarding the region’s unique stories, sounds, and heritage. Our work centers on restoring and archiving vintage films, music recordings, photographs, oral histories, and everyday artifacts that reflect the spirit and resilience of Appalachian life. We believe that preserving culture means more than just collecting—it’s about breathing new life into forgotten voices and sharing them with future generations.

While our foundation is deeply rooted in Appalachia, our reach is global. Through a growing archive of international films and cross-cultural storytelling, we strive to connect the experiences of mountain communities with those around the world. By highlighting both local and global traditions, The Homefolk Project bridges past and present, near and far, showing how cultural memory shapes our collective future.
