Installed on June 8, Mt. Airy’s new natural-gas-fueled emergency generator is designed to kick on automatically in the event of a PECO outage, powering the entire store — lights, registers and, most important, refrigrators and freezers.

(Note that Weavers Way Facilities Manager Steve Hebden is Our Man on the Roof — he took the pictures of the beehive installation at The Mercantile, too.)
