  This community has lost a lot in the last 15 years between textiles and tobacco," said Sam Moore, a sustainable farmer from Gibsonville on the market's board of directors."We were looking at, ‘How can we rebuild this community?' And, more importantly, ‘How can we rebuild the connection between farmers and people in the community?' "
  
  Moore thinks the answers lie in cooperative markets, where community members buy shares and take ownership in the store.In turn, area farmers supply locally grown and organic produce.
  
  "We think this is one way to keep some of these family farms that have traditionally been in tobacco.If we can give them a market to sell meat, eggs, and produce, there's an ongoing demand and distribution," he said.
  
  Moore is relatively new to farming, now semi-retired after nearly 30 years as a vice president with Burlington Chemical.He began a 5-acre farm in February, harvesting mainly apples, garlic and produce.He found demand for his crops in Pittsboro's Chatham Marketplace this spring and summer.
  
  It will take an investment of about $1 million to open the store, and the board of directors is looking for a good location.Moore says there's more than adequate demand - with about 140,000 residents in and around Alamance County and eastern Guilford County - so The Company Shops Marketplace could end up anywhere from downtown Burlington to Gibsonville.
  
  The board isn't going into the process blindly.Moore and members Charles Sydnor, Eric Henry and Rusty Holt tossed the idea around for years, visiting cooperative markets around the country for perspective.
  ...
  "We don't want to be at the mercy of the farmers' markets," Moore said.

  Conversations about a Burlington co-op started about four years ago with the Henry's son, Eric, and local farmers Sam Moore and Charlie Sydnor.

  Sam Moore
  
  Sam Moore worked for Burlington Chemical for 30 years before the company was sold in 2007.
  
  He led the research and development department there, and was CEO for three years before its sale.At one time, Alamance County was the world's largest producer of hosiery and men's socks.But with more manufacturers moving operations overseas, it became increasingly clear that the county could no longer rely on textiles to keep it afloat.Moore and his colleagues wondered what to do next.
  
  He turned to a lifelong hobby: farming.His grandfather had a small farm in Graham, and Moore maintained a farm while he juggled his career.He now farms full time, growing garlic, apples, cabbage and other produce on his 25-acre farm in Gibsonville.
  
  "If your hobby is golf, you pay money, you walk around outside in a beautiful area and when you get through, you don't have a thing to eat," Moore says."I'd just as soon be outside in a beautiful place, and when I get through, be able to sit down and have dinner."
  
  Moore yearns for the times when , back in his grandfather's day , people ate what they, or their neighbors, grew.
  
  "Now it's not the case.It's coming from all over the world.In question is not only the quality of the food, but food security," he says, noting recent beef recalls.
  
  If food is produced locally, it's easier to know whom to hold accountable for it, he says.Not so if food is traveling from 15,000 miles away.
  
  Moore also believes it's important to keep farmlands in the area.He doesn't want to see an overabundance of subdivisions taking over local farms in Alamance County.
  
  "We're not going to be able to retain any farmland or get any young people to go into farming if there's not a place for them to sell what they do," he says.

  Panelists included Sam Moore, projects manager for Hohenstein Institute America; Betsy McCullar, a partner in the Hilltop Alliance, a boutique management consultancy; and Bob Getto, CEO of Flechheimer Brothers, among the largest suppliers to the public safety, military and career uniform business in the country.
  ...
  Moore kicked off the discussion with an engaging overview of the process of innovation with a focus on sustainability.
  ...
  "We don't often look at the innovation process, and question what are the impacts and influences," suggests Moore, who previous to his post at Hohenstein was VP-R&D for Burlington Chemical for 23 years, and CEO for three. "We are more likely just reacting to the boss saying, we need a new fabric and now!"
  
  Moore, whose specialty is integration of a sustainability lens into strategic planning processes, has degrees in Chemistry, Textile Chemistry, MA Management, PhD candidate in the School for Cleaner production and Environment Erasmus University, Rotterdam. (Not to mention being an apple, vegetable and small fruit grower.)
  
  "We are in a tough time and there are a lot changes going on. We are feeling the impacts of globalization and you need to make sure you have an innovation strategy," says Moore. "We're on a new path.
