Scout the restaurants that are genuinely Southern yet displaced. We’ve found them, you can, too. We just can’t get to them that easily. We have editing rights to your writing in order to keep the blog's tone to our style. International backers can write about truly Southern dining experiences abroad.

For $1000 or more you get all of these gifts and opportunities plus a Dixie Dining gift box filled with one item from each of the 12 states we write about. Could be a special BBQ sauce from Georgia, snack food from Mississippi but definitely Southern and definitely one from each of the 12 states. International backers need to pay for additional shipping costs.
