Episode 30 - Science and Sips: A Cider-Maker's Story w/ Hallee Fried

Best of the WWEST

In this episode, we speak with Hallee Fried, who, along with her husband Jeff, co-owns Farmstrong Cider Company, based in Armstrong, British Columbia.

But, her passion for working the land began long before she started cider-making. Agriculture and farming have been a part of her life for as long as she can remember.

In this interview, she shares her story of how and why she got into cider-making, and the labour of love that goes into the craft.

She also talks about the challenges faced in the industry, including the impacts of climate change and labour shortages.
