In this video, I take you along for my second week with Cohort 21 in the Entrepreneurship for the Public Good (EPG) program at Berea College! This week, we hit the road for Roanoke and Abingdon, Virginia, exploring the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway, hiking part of the Appalachian Trail, and attending the Richmond Fed Rural Development Conference to learn about economic growth and community development in rural areas.
