Dave moved to the Pacific Northwest with his wife Heather. They are both registered nurses. His passion in the 90’s was to be a professional snowboarder. An accident in the Andes changed the trajectory of his life. He knew of the lore of Mount Baker and it called to him. He fell in love with the greenery and has made the Skagit Valley his home. It wasn’t long before he and his wife were being introduced to home craft cider. Dave was familiar with brewing beer from his days in college. His first attempt at cider was a success. Our in depth discussion covers the many ciders that Alma produces and the the production of fruit and apples at their orchard and farm.
