  • In North Charleston, Find Community Over Sounds And Spirits

    In North Charleston, Find Community Over Sounds And Spirits
    Nov 20 2024
    Scott Newitt, co-founder of Firefly Distillery, started out with a job in the wine industry and a love of music. With that in mind, it makes sense for South Carolina’s largest distillery to also be a vibrant hub for live performances. Scott sits down with Devyn to share his journey, from the challenges of building a successful distillery, through the evolution of Firefly as both a business and a cultural space, to how he and his team balance their craft with a commitment to the surrounding area.

    Mitchelville’s History Unearthed
    Nov 13 2024
    Before going through her studies at Binghamton University, Dr. Katherine “Katie” Seeber didn’t know anything about Mitchelville, the first town built for free people on Hilton Head Island. As an archaeologist and historian, it’s her job to dig up the past to understand people, places, and cultures. But Katie’s visit to this small coastal town left an everlasting impression on her, and changed the trajectory of her career. Devyn catches up with Katie, and they discuss the importance of telling the stories of Mitchelville’s residents — both past and present. Get more travel ideas at SCPalmettoPorch.com.
