Show 1017 – Red Land Cotton

When cotton is harvested off a farm, where does it go? Sometimes, that answer is tough to tell exactly. But the Yeager family of Lawrence County can tell you with 100% certainty — their cotton ends up as sheets, blankets, towels and other home products that line the shelves of their Red Land Cotton warehouse in Moulton. It’s been a few years since we’ve visited this Alabama company, and we felt it was time to provide an update on how much Red Land Cotton has grown!

Plus – we’re continuing the celebration of our 10th season! For four of those seasons, Stacey Little of Southern Bite has closed out our show with one of his quick and easy recipes. His segment is always a big hit with viewers, and he sat down with us to share his reflections on the show’s success!

A few years ago, Bobby’s Restaurant in Eva earned the title of Bama’s Best Chicken Tenders. They’re still serving up those award-winning tenders, but they’re doing it in a brand new restaurant! Melissa Bowman heads to Eva to visit the new place and learn all that’s changed since our first visit to Bobby’s.

    What’s in season in July, you ask? Well – just about everything! Our set is brimming with the freshest of produce from Alabama farmers, and Aisling Walding of Sweet Grown Alabama is here to tell us all the good things we can expect to find on a trip to a local farm or farmers market. To find farms near you that sell directly to the public, be sure to visit SweetGrownAlabama.org.

    Ramen noodles are the perfect standby when you need a quick and easy dinner. But when you want to jazz up those squiggly noodles, that’s easy to do too. It just takes yummy ground beef and a few fresh vegetables. Stacey Little of Southern Bite shows you how quickly you can make his Easy Beef Ramen Skillet. Thanks to the Alabama Cattlemen’s Association for sponsoring this recipe and the cattlemen and women whose work provides us with healthy, flavorful beef!
