We are excited to announce the official call for entries for the Made in the South Awards—our annual hunt for the best Southern-made products. And this year we’re thrilled to offer a $10,000 grand prize to the overall winner.
The rules are simple:
The awards are open to any Southern business with a Southern-made product that will be available through January 2015 in one of five categories—Food, Style & Design, Drink, Outdoors, and Home. A panel of editors and guest judges, including James Beard Award–winning chef Chris Hastings (Food), Alabama clothing designer Natalie Chanin (Style & Design), Brooks Reitz, Charleston restaurateur and owner of Jack Rudy Cocktail Co. (Drink), outdoorsman and G&G contributor T. Edward Nickens (Outdoors), and interior designer Celerie Kemble (Home), will choose a winner and several honorable mentions in each category. Those selected will appear in the pages of our December 2014/January 2015 issue.
Click here to see last year’s winners and runners-up, including small-batch ice cream from the Florida Panhandle (Southern Craft Creamery), sweet potato vodka out of Snow Hill, North Carolina (Covington Spirits), fillet knives handwrought in the South Carolina Midlands (Red Forgeworks), and a line of saddle-leather-and-steel furniture made in Marfa, Texas (Garza Furniture).
