Floods, Fires, & Family: 30 Years With the ICE Plant Restaurant | Episode #29

If there's one thing stronger than a Keystone State storm, it’s the resilience of our local business owners! In this episode of the GreeneScene Podcast, hosts Shelly Brown and Dolly Throckmorton sit down with a true example of Greene County determination: Lisa Miller, the owner and operator of The ICE Plant in Greensboro. Celebrating over 30 years in business, The ICE Plant is so much more than just a local restaurant, catering service, and wedding venue, it is a story of survival. Lisa shares the deeply moving history of how her family rebounded after losing their original restaurant in the devastating flood of 1985, and how she has personally guided The ICE Plant through fires, renovations, and even the literal definition of a "drive-thru" when a couple of cars accidentally crashed into the building over the years! In this episode, we’re serving up: > A Story of Resiliency: Lisa gets candid about the hardships of rebuilding, her personal mourning process after a devastating fire, and why she still rolls up her sleeves to clean the floors herself. > The Annual Car Show: How a small gathering of 30 cars thrown together in two weeks blossomed into a massive annual event hosting over 200 spectacular vehicles. > Mark Your Calendars: All the details for this year’s upcoming car show on July 25th, including how a portion of the proceeds goes directly back to supporting local and national charities. > On the Menu: A sneak peek at this year's highly anticipated food attraction—the walking meatball hoagie! > Looking Ahead: How the team continues to adapt, change with the times, and remain an anchor for the Greensboro community for as long as they are needed. ----- Follow the GreeneScene Community Magazine on social media for more: > Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GreeneSceneCommunityMagazine > Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greenescenecommunitymagazine ----- Executive Producer: Pam Marisa Producers: Vicky Hughes & Sandy Wilson Hosts: Shelly Brown & Dolly Throckmorton Audio Editor/Manager: Jacob Ahlbrand ----- For more information on the GreeneScene Community Magazine, visit https://greenescenemagazine.com.
