Tell us about yourself and what you do for a living?
I am a serial entrepreneur. After a 15-year career in Publishing in NYC I started a business called Catskill Provisions in 2010 based in Long Eddy NY. The pillar at CP is honey. I am an avid beekeeper and want to do all I can to bring awareness to the environmental plight afflicting all pollinators today. They are crucial to our survival and are amazing beings. I also have been training in distilling spirits and right now as I write this I am opening my own distillery in Long Eddy. With a second branch to open late Summer 2019 in Callicoon NY, which will be open to the public! We will make our NY Honey Rye Whiskey, Pollinator Vodka, and Pollinator Gin from locally sourced non-GMO grains. This past Fall we planted our own rye wheat so this Spring we will harvest that and truly be grain to glass!
