Naughty or Nice? Shop Regenerative Deals Good for Everyone!
— ACAP
Deck the halls with regeneratively produced gifts! Accelerating Appalachia is proud to showcase an updated version of The Regenerative Agriculture Holiday Shopping Guide. We’ve added two more farms to our guide, which is curated to feature both in-person and online deals from farmers in our program who implement regenerative practices that improve soil health, putting more good back into our bodies. From stocking stuffers like salves and jams to gifts you can use year-round, like t-shirts and beanies, or a farm stay, our guide has it all. Your support will help farmers stay on the land and in turn, provide us with healthier food, fiber, and forest products. Happy shopping!
FARM: Hickory Nut Gap WHERE: Fairview, NC OFFER: Hickory Nut Gap is a fourth-generation, family-run farm and butcher shop in Fairview, North Carolina, built on the belief that great meat starts with healthy land and well-cared-for animals. Their community of regenerative farmers raises 100% grass-fed, grass-finished beef and pasture-raised pork with no antibiotics or added hormones—ever. From pasture to plate, everything centers on stewardship, quality, and keeping real food connected to real people.
Their old-world–inspired salamis and shelf-stable meat sticks bring that farm-first promise to everyday snacking. Made from grass-fed beef and pasture-raised pork, these protein-packed snacks are perfect for boards, lunchboxes, and on-the-go fuel.

Thank You and Happy Holidays!
Our team would like to thank all of our farmer participants and supporters. Your time, patience, creativity, and dedication have not gone unnoticed. When priorities shifted, you walked alongside us, supporting new partnerships like Maker’s Mark’s Regenerative Alliance. We uplifted and showcased the Appalachian region by connecting our participants to the Dirt Pearls project, which is a video and photo exhibit by Erica Chambers. You shopped with our farmers through The Regenerative Agriculture Holiday Shopping Guide, putting more money into the hands of small farmers. It is this system of working together and with the land that we plan to move forward and expand market access for our farmer participants in 2026.
