CRAFT Partners with PA DCED for Culinary Trails

In collaboration with the Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development (DCED) and with gracious funding from the Appalachian Regional Commission, CRAFT is currently working on the development of culinary trails within Pennsylvania’s Appalachian region that highlight the region’s rich culinary heritage.

The primary objective of the project is to promote economic opportunities for the region’s residents through the development and promotion of thematic culinary trails. To start in 2019, CRAFT will be developing both an apple and grain trail, including local farms, markets, restaurants, and other food businesses. In 2020, the project’s focus will transition to fermentation and charcuterie.

We’ll be posting updates about this project here, or feel free to reach out to craft@chatham.edu with any questions.
