Grace grew up on a small farm in the nation’s smallest state. She attended a Quaker school in Providence before heading out to Skidmore where she learned anthropological stuff while skipping classes to knit. Now an Ashevillian, Grace is swearing less like a Rhode Islander, embracing tempeh and going out of her way to pet wild animals. Kenosha, WI is exceptionally lovely – at least that is what Mariano keeps on telling us about his hometown. After learning about History, Science, Zoology and the such at Madison, he made his way to AmeriCorps, CARE and other really cool organizations busting inequality. Being a lover of economic development, he studied at Harvard before making his way to a town of 464 people in Western North Carolina in hopes of applying what he learned while not breaking things.

NORTH CAROLINA at "The Martha Stewart American Made Awards" | Appalatch Outdoor Apparel Company is a finalist for THE 2014 "MARTHA STEWART AMERICAN MADE AWARDS" | American Made spotlights the maker, supports the local, and celebrates the handmade.
