"Maineland" profiles entrepreneur Amber Lambke and her efforts to revitalize the post-industrial small town of Skowhegan, Maine with the Somerset Grist Mill, an old-fashioned grain and oat mill. Since opening in 2014, the mill has facilitated the resurgence of wheat farming, baking, and other small businesses in the surrounding area.

The large manufacturing can't be made up with small retail outlets. It's sad what America has become since manufacturing was in effect handed to China by inept politicians who were elected by many of the very people affected all over the nation. But I do commend those who fight to improve whatever they can.
