Growing Appalachia is a day-long conference hosted by the Floyd County chapter with workshops from beginning organic gardening to do-it-yourself energy efficiency. This year's conference will be our 4th and is sure to be the best yet. Last year, attendees asked for food preservation workshops, so this year, our very own Beverly May is rolling up her sleeves and dragging out her canning jars.

We are so close. Only a short $12,309 dollars shy of our fall $200,000 goal. The money we raise helps us do this work every day, all year long.
We will reach our goal because supporters like you will pitch in $15, $30, $45 and more. If we've talked to you this fall and you said you would pitch in, but your check hasn't hit the mail, it's as easy as
following this link.
To show our appreciation, we'll send a new KFTC hoodie to the person whose donation bumps us to our goal. So be the one who makes that very important and very lucky contribution in these final days of 2012!
If you'd rather not count on good luck but still want a hoodie, call Morgan at 606-878-2161 or email her (
[email protected]) to order.
