🦌 The Holler Way Co . Seeks Deer Fat Donations to Launch Traditional Tallow Line

As hunting season brings activity to East Tennessee’s ridges and hollows, a Pikeville-based herbal brand is tapping into a time-honored tradition-turning wild game byproducts into healing remedies. The Holler Way Co. is now reaching out to local hunters with a proposition that honors both the harvest and Appalachian heritage.

The Holler Way Co. has announced plans to expand into tallow production, the traditional craft of rendering animal fat into salves, balms, and other wellness products rooted in mountain healing practices. To source the raw material, the business is calling on area deer hunters to donate their deer fat in exchange for a discount on all Holler Way products. 🧡

📍 Why Tallow Matters in Appalachian Tradition

Tallow-rendered fat used for centuries in folk medicine and skincare-represents a direct link to how mountain families have made use of every part of the harvest. By incorporating tallow into its product line, The Holler Way Co. is deepening its commitment to preserving and sharing traditional plant-based and animal-based healing practices that define the region’s wellness heritage. The move reflects a broader regional interest in sustainable, locally sourced ingredients that waste nothing. 🌿

🤝 A Call to Hunters

Hunters who have deer fat to contribute are invited to connect with The Holler Way Co. to arrange donations. In return, donors receive a discount on the business’s full range of herbal remedies and wellness products. The arrangement creates a direct link between the hunting community and artisanal production-a model that strengthens local supply chains and celebrates the interdependence of mountain life. 🎯
