The Appalachian Channel with John Ward
Since 2021, I have been documenting the people and places of Appalachia as my full-time career. The Appalachian Channel is primarily a travel and destination channel showing people places that are not in mainstream tourist areas. People around the world visit the many mom-and-pop-run general stores and restaurants I feature in my videos. I also document Appalachian people and have them talk about their life experiences. Come along with me as I explore the many small towns and businesses that make Appalachia great!
