Episode Synopsis "Episode 10: Sweet Talk with the Next Generation of Sugarmakers"
This month, Aaron Wightman interviews two burgeoning young sugarmakers of the maple industry's next generation - Damian Hill of Shaver-Hill Maple Farm in Harpersfield, NY, and Andrea Caluori of Little Mouse Farm & Studio in Ashfield, MA. Damian grew up in a maple producing family and is the third generation of Hills to continue growing the business. Andrea is a first-generation farmer and an artist who grew up in the Bronx and found her way to the welcoming world of the maple industry. While Shaver-Hill Farm specializes in maple - both in food products and as an equipment dealer - Little Mouse Farm is a small, but highly diversified new business. Andrea is a graduate of the Cornell Maple Program's Maple Camp - a four-day, immersive program designed to provide hands-on learning and expert advice to both complete beginners and those looking to improve their operations. Episode produced by Ailis Clyne Music - Long and Low Cloud, Funk and Flash, both by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue)
