KERNERSVILLE, N.C. — Forsyth County commissioners approved money to try enticing John Deere to expand.
The county agreed to give the company nearly a million dollars for a new manufacturing site in Kernersville.

This new facility would build small excavators, which is unrelated to the new facility announced last August to build batteries and chargers.
