 Stories are the Roots that Ground Us LIVE RECORDING at The Taproom - Local Roots: an Abingdon Oral History Program Picture this: A warm, inviting taproom filled with the crisp aroma of hard cider. The hum of conversation. The clink of glasses. And at the center of it all, a voice sharing a story that’s been passed down for generations—a memory of Abingdon’s past that feels as alive as the first sip of a fresh-pressed draft. Welcome to Local Roots, a new oral history series at Tumbling Creek Cider Company’s Taproom that’s part history lesson, part community gathering, and 100% Appalachian soul. Local Roots is a 90-minute oral history program designed to weave together the vibrant tapestry of Abingdon, VA, and the surrounding Appalachian region. Led by Tom McMullan—co-founder of Tumbling Creek Cider and orchard manager—this event will be recorded live and be archived at Emory & Henry University’s own WEHC radio.Copyright 2025 WEHC アート クッキング 世界 社会科学 食品・ワイン
