When we finally began pouring footers and saw the base of a new foundation take shape, it was the first time we truly felt a sense of certainty — that the Broad River Inn wasn’t going to fall. After so much loss and uncertainty, seeing concrete set in the ground felt like solid hope. That moment was made even more special by the incredible support we received from the Amish community, who traveled all the way from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, bringing their own concrete forms and lending their skill and strength to help us move forward. Their quiet dedication and craftsmanship were humbling, and their presence reminded us that this project had grown far beyond just our story — it had become a shared effort to preserve something meaningful.
