Broken Spoke's Maggie & Thea 'Chit Chat' About Their Boutique Winery
Manage episode 459559744 series 3571061
I had the pleasure of speaking with a mother daughter team…well actually, in real life, they are a mother daughter father team, but dad likes to stay behind the scenes. Thea Hall is the Owner, Vinter, and Farm Caretaker of Broken Spoke, a boutique winery and vineyard on Maryland’s Eastern Shore with a unique focus on animals and communication or conversation styles- you will understand more about what that means when you listen to the podcast! Maggie Hall, Thea’s daughter, is the social media, events, and wine club management guru for Broken Spoke.
Thea describes Broken Spoke as three separate businesses - the first business is growing the wine, the second is making the wine and the third is marketing the wine. And she is very right about these three being very distinct businesses that require very different skill sets, experience, and know how.
When I asked about the relationships with a mother, daughter…and father team running a business…I loved how Thea and Maggie responded. Thea describes her husband as the doer who gets the cart rolling and Maggie describes her mom as the person who steers and puts all the road signs up to tell her father where to go. And Maggie - well she fixes all the flats!!! I think that is a pretty impressive and collaborative team who have each found their strengths and figured out how to most effectively manage all three businesses that make up Broken Spoke Vineyard and Winery.
Enjoy my conversation with Thea and Maggie Hall.
