We have the scoop on a legen-'dairy' business in Lawrenceburg, KY this Women's History Month! 🍦 Taylor Belle's Ice Cream began as a Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) when Taylor Cook was in high school FFA.

We're celebrating 'sud'sational success this National Dishwasher Day with GE Appliances, a Haier company!🫧 In September 2023, they had a key milestone in Louisville, KY with the opening of two new dishwasher manufacturing lines, thanks to a $450 million investment announced in 2021.
