This is part of a year-long ‘Love for Local’ series called NB365: portraits of New Brunswick entrepreneurs, businesses and organizations. Huddle is a media partner with Love for Local. Today, we hear from Jeremiah Clark of Moonshine Creek Distillery in Waterville County.

WE’VE ALWAYS BELIEVED IN BEING THE CHANGE WE WANT TO SEE IN OUR COMMUNITY. ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS AND HAS BEEN OUR VEHICLE TO MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT IN OUR COMMUNITY.

The support of our customers has given us the financial means and the morale to make it through these hard economic times. Without the support of our local community within the province, we may not be able to continue to pursue this entrepreneurial path. We recognize the support we’ve received, and in return, we give back any way we can. Supporting local is cyclical and selfless, it’s a gift that keeps on giving.

We are focusing on growing our brand outside of Canada so we may expand our workforce and demand for locally harvested agriculture. The future of Moonshine Creek Distillery looks bright, and so does the future of local.
