Living better. Locally. It's what drives ASD's commitment to propel our mission to build a thriving regional food and agriculture system that creates healthy communities, respects the planet, and cultivates profitable opportunities for Appalachians. Since 1995, Appalachian Sustainable Development has been working in Central Appalachia, providing hope and making a difference for the people who call the region home. What began as opportunities for struggling tobacco farmers to grow fruits and vegetables have become lasting solutions to regional challenges that impact economic development, workforce development, food access, health and wellness. Over the years, we have expanded our reach from northeast TN and southwest VA to include partners in WV, OH and KY, enabling the us to bring resources back to the region.
