Скачать или смотреть "Growth Isn't Always Good!" Why Bird Dog Cider Is Laser-Focused On Staying Local & Getting People...

Pete Endres grew up dreaming of owning a farm.


And when his mother passed away in 2011, Pete and his brothers decided they wanted to not only own a farm, but to open up a cidery on said property.


Pete, who later moved to the Seacoast in the mid-2010s, spent years searching for the perfect property until, finally, he found it in 2019.


That farm? It's now home to Bird Dog Cider (  / birddogcider  ) in Greenland, N.H., which formally opened its doors last fall.


From the cozy confines of Bird Dog, Pete sits down with host Troy Farkas (  / troy_farkas  ) to discuss his childhood days of apple farming in western New York, the blood, sweat, and tears poured into revitalizing the once-dilapidated farm, the family atmosphere that defines Bird Dog, and having lines out the door the day they opened their barn doors to the public.


Plus, getting chased by a sea lion, and even the MURDER that took place on the farm!?
