Gregg Smyth worked at Phillips Orchards and Cider Mill as a hobby until he and Brian Phillips decided to make the family farm their full-time business. Gregg now runs the Gatehouse Market, enjoys the benefits of small-town living, and works as a flight attendant in his free time.

Listen as Gregg talks about:

• The long family history surrounding Phillips Orchards
• Forming relationships with local, talented artisans
• The length of time you have to spend worrying about apples
• Painting and working out as a form of therapy
• The path to selling hard cider as a new item
• Why sitting on patios is always going to be popular
