Showcasing a project's community impactfrom @isaacfrench_
The creator showcases his newly opened private Tesla Supercharger station in a small town in Idaho. He explains that it's attracting drivers from far away because it's part of a larger experience he and his family have built by restoring old buildings in the town, turning them into a boutique hotel, a craft butchery, an artisan bakery, and a quilting shop. He concludes by proposing that this model of integrating EV charging with local business revitalization could help save small-town America.

We bought the Mercantile, some friends of ours, turned it into a craft butchery. The old Ford garage is now an artisan bakery and a creamery, and this old appliance repair shop is now a handcraft rank quilting shop that my mom runs. Oh, and by the way, isn't that cool? We have white labeled each charger with a native tree species here to North Idaho. So I think Tesla actually might help save small town America because
