I'll drink to that where we get behind the scenes of the beverage business.

I'm Levy Dalton.

I'm Erin Scala and here's our show today. Oh, Martha Stouman on the show of the Living Wines Collective. Hello, how are you?

I'm doing well, lovey. Thanks for having me.

Nice to see you. So you grew up in California. I grew up in Sebastopol, which is now definitely

a well-known wine region, but at the time I was there, it was much more an apple producing area and a lot of dairy farms.

But a lot of farming.

Yeah, a lot of farming, always agricultural.

A little bit of a kind of hippie retreat vibe to it.

Who are you as a person?

I mean, when you were younger, what were you up to?

I was middle child, two brothers, and I kind of always, I wanted to be a tomboy and I would do tomboy like things and then occasionally I'd go play with my friends and you know

Sneak that I was playing Barbies but never really told anyone.

So you're exactly the same person.

That's kind of my read like right now.

I mean minus the Barbies but like,

kind of tomboy and...

Yeah, exactly, you know, you're kind of tomboy and yeah exactly you know you kind of tomboy I like you know I work in wine production and I love the machinery I love trying to fix things but I also

You know want to be feminine. So yeah, so yeah what was your family like both of my

parents own their own businesses and both in some capacity work with their

hands my mom designs gardens and so she's outdoors gardening all day and my dad builds homes. So a lot of kind of do it yourself. Sometimes you know you look at it almost to a fault where it's like oh we've actually

had that washing machine for 25 years which is excellent I mean I love that people people
