You should check out the FoxFire books. They are all created by highschool student interviewing relatives and other elder folk in the Appalachian area. Recipes, ghost stories, how they did things, all in story form. There are 11 books that we have, there may be more. But some awesome stories and research material "Straight from the horse's mouth."
Good stuff. A good editor like that is gold. As an editor, I strive to be that. As a writer, I cherish those golden editors.

I loved reading those in HS! I owned a few before we had a house fire. I should see about replacing them.
