A baby-sling company founded by two Asheville-area moms is one of five finalists in the running for a $100,000 prize in a small-business contest sponsored by Forbes.com.
Kristin Keliher, 34, and Christen Ward, 30, started Honeywear Inc. after being unable to find baby carriers made in the U.S. out of organic cotton. More info: honeywear.net; vote for them at Forbes.com’s “Boost Your Business 2008” contest.

Wow, those slings are awesome!!! Too bad my curious, squirmy child can’t stand to be in one 🙁
Gordon, I’ll be glad to cross-post. I probably won’t get to it until this evening.
Yes, very exciting!
I hope you’ll post this at BlogAsheville. If you do, please urge every blogger in town to post it at their sites.
I’m going to forward it to my entire email list and post it at ScruHoo next week.
Very exciting.
