🏴 Appalachian Flag with grommets and double-stitched edges to reduce fraying. ✍️ The Design (via AppalachianFlag.org): The Appalachian flag design was finalized in 2023 after over a year of discussion and contributions by Appalachians through online social media discussions, primarily through websites such as Reddit, Facebook, and Twitter. Through the year, the design slowly changed and morphed based off of aesthetic principle and community input. Finally, this design was chosen from a list of 6 possible designs in an online vote taken by over 300 participants from Appalachian social media groups, receiving a vast majority of the votes.
