Allan Robinette is part of Robinette’s Apple Haus & Winery, an agri-tourism destination in Grand Rapids. They also offer you-pick of a variety of fruits, a corn maze, a bakery, and many family activities. Allan credits his grandparents Jim and Bethel Robinette with making the transition to a retail business model. When Allan isn’t pruning, talking with visitors, or doing one of the million other details it takes to run a business, he enjoys cycling and watching movies.

Listen as Allan talks about:

• The best apples to grow and eat
• Pest control with pheromones
• How a company designs and forms a corn maze
• How to prune trees to get the best growth
• How one expansion led to another for farm visitors
