This National Mason Jar Day, we're celebrating the kind of innovation that sets Indiana apart. When the Ball Brothers moved their glass manufacturing company to Muncie in 1887, they transformed both the Mason jar industry and our community. What started as five brothers with an entrepreneurial vision became the world's largest fruit jar manufacturer by 1900, producing 240,000 jars per day and making Muncie synonymous with an American icon. The Ball Brothers didn't just manufacture jars; they built a legacy. Their business turned a simple canning jar into one of Indiana's most recognizable creations, used for storage, crafting and everyday life for over a century. As we mark the day, we're highlighting the spirit of opportunity that continues to define Indiana. This state has always been a place where visionary entrepreneurs can build something extraordinary, innovations that stay useful for generations! #StayingIN #HoosierPride #Midwestliving #morethancorn For more information about Staying IN, visit the link below: https://www.stayinginindiana.com
