Summer 2024

In this issue, you’ll see how we set the table for a Lowcountry boil and welcome new and old friends. We also talk to a Texas hat designer who created a line of handwoven hats for fashionable events or sweltering days. You can also read about a Tennessee small-batch creamery that whips up fresh Southern flavors in their ice cream and Kentucky celebrity Chef Damaris Phillips, who shares a recipe for a true Southern staple, banana pudding. We study the fine details of a North Carolina chair designer and explore the beauty of Nashville’s finely preserved Cheekwood Estate.  We also take you out on the water — fresh and salty. A Georgia conservationist explains the ins and outs of alligator hunting, and a Mississippi shark expert takes a deep dive into tiger shark research — two jobs that aren’t for the faint of heart.   Join us on another journey through the South, and we’ll kick back a bit and enjoy our front-row seats to summer’s wonders.
