Inside the Appalachian Channel's Barndominium Studio : A Behind The Scenes Tour

Step inside the Appalachian Studio, a rustic dream come to life! Join me, John Ward, along with my son Dustin, as we take you on a tour of the Appalachian Channel Studios—a small yet inspiring space where creativity meets community. After years of challenges, including a troubling series of events during construction and months of hard work, this barndominium has become so much more than a studio.

In this video, we’ll explore every corner of the space, from the kitchen with its unique rustic touches to the garage-turned-woodshop that helped bring the vision to life. You'll see where we’ll soon create cooking videos, podcasts, and interviews with incredible storytellers. Plus, meet our special guest, Olivia from Chronicles of Olivia, and get a glimpse of the exciting projects we’re collaborating on.

We share the joys and struggles of building this studio, from dealing with unfinished construction to customizing every detail. It’s been a labor of love, and we’re excited to finally start using this space to bring you content that celebrates Appalachian heritage, vintage collections, and even cooking some good old-fashioned country meals.

Let’s explore this journey together and uncover the rich stories this space holds.
