FISHERS, Ind., June 15, 2020 /3BL Media/ - Land Betterment Corporation (“Land Betterment” or the “Company”), an environmental solutions company fostering positive impact through upcycling former coal mining sites to create sustainable community development and job creation, is proud and dedicated to work with all stakeholders to grow economic diversity and opportunity in areas that have been adversely affected from the decline in thermal coal as our society transitions away from coal-based fuels.  Due to its continued commitment to invest in Greene County, Indiana to grow and scale Coal Craft Spirits, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation extended Land Betterment Economic Development for a Growing Economy (EDGE) tax credits in an amount of up to $450,000.  

‘We are humbled to be offered such a comprehensive incentive plan while we are scaling the impact of our investment into southwestern Indiana,” commented Kirk Taylor, President of Land Betterment.  We are transforming the former mining site in Greene County, Indiana to be the new location of Betterment Spirits and its Coal Craft Spirits brand, and developing a unique state-of-the-art, farm-to-bottle distillery experience.  Mr. Taylor continued, “as a Benefit Corporation, building local support of all stakeholders first is vitally important as our impact and exposure grows coast to coast.”
