Abstract:

Turning House Millworks, located in Landis, converts long-abandoned mills and factories into building materials. The company is able to reuse or recycle 98 percent of the material from deconstructed buildings, and in so doing, saves thousands and thousands of trees. In April 2009, at the High Point Market, the company introduced its furniture collection made from rare and extinct vintage wood rescued from the old buildings.

Abstract:

Stan's Pimento Cheese is a North Carolina legacy. After service in World War II, Stan Hudgins, of Alamance County, worked for Colonial Stores for fourteen years. Eventually he opened his own neighborhood produce and grocery store, and it was there that he created his famous brand of pimento cheese. In 1984, he agreed to distribution to other stores throughout the Southeast, and the cheese took off. Today, Stan's Quality Foods makes and ships 20,000 pounds of pimento cheese a week.
