In the News

For a company located in rural eastern North Carolina we have been fortunate enough over the years to receive quite a bit of media coverage.  This page will help us share some of the coverage of both our farm supply business, Powell & Stokes, Inc., and our retail line of peanut products, Bertie County Peanuts.  And, if you know of something we should include on this page, please let us know!
