Did you know that Guilford County is home to North Carolina’s largest refugee population? Moreover, the diversity of the population is truly astonishing. In Guilford County, you can find individuals from more than 141 countries. Wow, how diverse is that?! All of this diversity is manifested at the NFF every year. We enjoyed performers of music and dance from across America with ties to North Carolina. The NC Folk Life Area celebrated and showcased the living traditions of North Carolinians embracing the theme, One State, Many Worlds. Have you ever heard of the Bahamas Junkanoo Review?

I just engaged with Camila at the Greensboro Farmers Market (I thought her name was Nailah Shea) but in reading about her blog and learning about her education and accomplishments, products and family has given me a whole new interest in her work. I love knowing her products are organic. Not only does Camila have many types of products, from skin to face to body to hair, the scents are varied and it is easy to find one that appeals to your senses.
