The Foxfire Museum app will enhance any visitors experience to our museum. Foxfire started over 50 years ago with a group of high school students deciding to create a magazine series dedicated to preserving the Southern Appalachian culture. Excerpts of the magazines were used to create the national best-selling Foxfire Book. Royalty money from book sales was used to purchase land and high school students created the museum we have today.
With our app you will have a truly interactive experience.
Use the map feature to find you way around our 22-site facility.
Listen to some of Foxfire’s cherished contacts recall aspects of mountain life.
Learn more about the Southern Appalachian culture with fun and interesting facts.
Each site on the tour is filled with information only available in our app.
Henry Claiborne Rothell is my maternal great grandfather. We have always been proud that the Rothell home place found a home in The Foxfire exhibit.
I do not see reference to it on the website. Please tell me where it is. If it is no longer of use to the exhibit it should be reassembled on its original site just slightly east of Toccoa Georgia.
