Charles Corby is the 5th generation owner of Pittsford Farms Dairy & Bakery and was really the mastermind behind many of the pivots that business has made in the past couple of decades. Charles was behind the expansion of the retail store to what it is today, the ramping up of production on the milk for larger distribution, and yes, Charles is the one who said "we should start making ice cream". Please enjoy his family story.

Brian is the 3rd generation owner of Red Jacket Orchards and, while reluctant to refer to himself as an entrepreneur, is absolutely one is the truest sense of the word. Brian has pivoted, several times, both prior to and after joining the family business. The most recent pivot, however, into focusing on the juice production and distribution, has proven to be the most fruitful (see what I did there?) as the juices are not distributed from "Miami to Maine".
