Appalachian Maple: Recipes and Stories from the Mountains
More than a cookbook—it’s a love letter to the land.
Appalachian Maple is a celebration of mountain life, maple syrup, and the deep-rooted traditions that flavor both. This beautifully crafted book blends sweet, savory, and unexpected recipes with heartfelt stories from the hollers, hillsides, and kitchen tables of Appalachia.
Inside, you’ll find seasonal recipes that honor the versatility of real maple syrup—from classic breakfasts to creative main dishes, healing teas, wild-foraged treats, and homestead desserts. Woven between each dish are the voices of those who call these mountains home—stories of family, food, and the strength of Appalachian culture.
Whether you’re a seasoned cook or just discovering the taste of the region, Appalachian Maple brings you into a world where meals are made with purpose, and every drop of syrup carries history, healing, and heritage.
Meet the Founder – Corey Beahm
Healing Harvest was born from both personal passion and professional purpose. As a lifelong West Virginian, community advocate, and trauma-informed educator, I’ve spent years working alongside families, frontline workers, and local leaders to build stronger, more resilient communities. I’ve seen firsthand how trauma, poverty, and lack of access to opportunity can hold people back—and how connection, knowledge, and dignity can help them rise.
Healing Harvest is my way of combining what I know with what I love. It’s where the power of Appalachian-grown foods, the strength of local partnerships, and a commitment to healing through economic and educational opportunity all come together. It’s not just about syrup, salt, or herbal goods—it’s about rebuilding pride, creating pathways, and honoring the land and people who make this region so rich with potential.
Every product we offer tells a story. It reflects our values, our roots, and our vision of a more well, more connected, more empowered West Virginia. Healing Harvest exists because I believe that healing is possible—one act of kindness, one shared meal, one jar at a time.
