About Appalachian Naturals

The idea for Appalachian Naturals began 18 years ago after the owners sold their restaurant out in Joshua Tree, CA and moved 3,000 miles east to the Berkshires of New England. In 2005 the first batch of Ginger Miso Salad Dressing was bottled. Soon thereafter the owners added seven more dressings, barbecue sauces, dips, and salsa. Today, Appalachian Naturals continues to grow, currently with 25 retail size products and 10 foodservice size products. Our mission is to intelligently alter the existing food chain paradigm to the benefit of the consumer, ethically, environmentally, and economically. Sourcing ingredients from local farms and producers that follow similar ethical and sustainable approaches to commerce is just the tip of the fork here at Appalachian Naturals. Read their story
