Welcome to Appalachian Spring Cooperative...

The beauty of our hills and valleys, the clean rivers, the peace and serenity of a morning sunrise, the down home recipes are all reminders of a simpler, less hurried life. We invite you to enjoy with us!

Located in the beautiful southern Appalachian highlands of East Tennessee, Appalachian Spring Cooperative is a member-owned association of farmers and entrepreneurs creating quality, locally produced food and herbal self care products.

Our cooperative is affiliated with Jubilee Project, a United Methodist Mission. Jubilee Project is dedicated to improve the lives of local farmers, many of them former tobacco growers, and small businesses by providing a community kitchen for production as well as a marketing opportunity for their value added products through Appalachian Spring Cooperative.

Sneedville, in Hancock County, is the base of our cooperative. Your purchase of Appalachian Spring Cooperative products promotes fair trade within the United States, supporting family farms, local food systems, community access to fresh, local foods as well as creating much needed opportunity for economic viability in the small towns and villages of this beautiful part of our country.

Our local soil conditions, especially in neighboring Grainger county are the best in the country for the finest tomatoes and you can taste the difference in our salsa. The early spring in our valleys brings forth the most wonderful fruits for jams, jellies, and fruit butters, and recipes generations old preserve the harvest of the fall relishes, pickles, barbeque sauces. And ensuring that there is a harvest, our local bee keepers provide hives for all those busy bees who later in the summer share the fruits of their labor. Wise women who gather herbs and remember the old ways are offering grandma's remedies.

Our Member Producers Include:

Davidson's Store, White's Little Mountain, Pure Mountain Herbs, Clinch Mountain Grille & Tennessee River Barbecue Sauce.
