Scottish Night Guest Chef

Chris Neil is a multi-generational Appalachian born and raised in the southern coalfields of West Virginia. Growing up and working on his historical family farm, he learned to appreciate fresh food that they raised, the deep roots and methods of the people who settled the area, and the rich history of where they came from. This connection comes through in his life, his food, and his music. Together with his wife, they own Humble Heritage, where they freshly mill grains to make classic European-style breads, along with Appalachian staples that gives a nod to their lineage.
