Husband and wife founders Chris and Kristin Harlander created Mixmi Froyo as a healthy alternative to ice cream. “We created Mixmi to nourish the microbiome with healthy bacteria.

Olde Farm founder Jim McGlothlin, working with golf course architect Bobby Weed, created the championship golf course without moving much earth to preserve the property’s pristine beauty and natural features. “Olde Farm attracts people from all over the world.
