Real Mountain Magic: Witchcraft and Healing
In this project, David Krauch thought back on his childhood and how he knew people who told stories about home remedies for various ailments. With that in mind he contacted Anna Maria Hanson, who is both an herbalist and a witch. During the interview, Ms. Hanson performed a Wiccan ritual, and spoke of herbs, which was expected. What was a surprise though is that also during this process, Mr. Krauch had a mild heart attack and was assisted by Ms. Hanson.

Cooking Up A Storm: A Story of Cooking, Gathering, and Natural Healing in Appalachia
Angie Spence enjoys cooking and knows from her experiences growing up in the Eastern Shore of Virginia, that people cook with what foods are native to their regions. This idea interested her and gave inspiration for this project. Ms. Spence found three local fans of cooking and interviewed, and cooked with them. During the interviews, she heard about gathering roots and berries, canning, making preserves, and natural healing using traditional Appalachian herbal elixirs. In addition, Ms. Spence saw that with a love of cooking comes also a love of family and friends.
