Our State magazine is putting on another sold-out event January 6-8, 2012 with new and returning presenters, music, humor, history, storytelling and a brand new line of ice cream from the Mooresville Ice Cream Company that has been producing high quality, down-home ice cream in North Carolina for 88 years.

"What better place to unveil our new Front Porch Carolina Churned Ice Cream than at the Best of Our State festival that celebrates so much of what makes the Carolinas great," said Robert Acree, the General Manager of Mooresville Ice Cream Co.

The Best of Our State will feature Front Porch samplings on both Friday and Saturday in the event's Marketplace, with flavors including Sweetie Tea, Blackberry Crumble, Nana's Banana Pudding, Lemony Sunshine, Chocolate Rocker, Scarlett Red Velvet, Sassy Strawberry and Peachy Keen. The line features uniquely crafted Southern flavors in each of these homespun recipes that will make you feel as if you are rocking on your front porch on a summer night – no matter where you might be.

Front Porch Carolina Churned Ice Cream will be available in early 2012 in grocery retailers throughout the Carolinas, as well as at Mooresville Ice Cream's very own on-premise ice cream parlor, located in the original creamery building in historic downtown Mooresville, N.C.
