WILD WINES

After graduating from college on the east coast, future wine maker Carla David was torn between pursuing work in her field of study and apprenticing at an organic farm. She chose farming to pursue her love of plants and herbalism. When she and a friend made their first batch of plum wine together, the idea of winemaking as more than a hobby got rolling. Carla tried recipes she found for dandelion and elderberry wines, and was so excited that she began to make new wines every month with whatever was in season.
