032 The Story of Apple Falls Cider: Amelia went from Orchard Employee to Craft Cider Business Owner!

The Story of Apple Falls Cider

with Amelia and Matt

Hey everyone!

You’re going to love this week's episode. I recorded it on an apple orchard (a literal dream come true for me since podcasts + apples are two of my favourite things in life!) but we get down to BUSINESS with Amelia and her dad Colin, will sipping cider!

I took away some powerful lessons from this episode.

 

Here’s a quick synopsis:

  1. As a business owner, you should learn to be okay with financial risk

  2. Read the book The Lean Startup (HERE)

  3. Don’t talk about things, DO things!

  4. Look for grants that you can apply for

  5. If you want to start a business, make a business plan, encounter obstacles, fail, and just do it

Aside from these lessons learned, here are a few more details about today's interview and about Apple Falls Cider…

Amelia and Matt have been making hard cider since 2012, after they fell in love with the beverage in London, England. After successfully completing their post-secondary education, Matt and Amelia visited London, England. While they were exploring the culture in London, they stumbled upon traditional hard apple cider. From then on, they were hooked.

On their return, they started experimenting with different blends of apple varieties from the family farm. Their recipe was perfected over many bottles shared with family and friends.

They were destined for cider-making, obsessed with achieving exceptional taste using just one ingredient, apples.

Passionate about cider and driven to succeed, Amelia and Matt started Apple Falls Cider Company.

Their cider uses 100% Campbell's Orchards apples, hand picked from the family farm. The exceptional quality of the apples from Campbell's Orchards directly ensures great tasting cider.

Chatting with Amelia (& bonus that I got to chat with her Dad Colin, as well!) was such a joy. We are both millennial entrepreneurs and we clicked so easily. I know you’ll be inspired by her story!

Be sure to check out their website to learn more about the cider, where to purchase it, and how you can visit them if you head to Prince Edward County!
