Get ready to be inspired by a story of heritage, horticulture, and the entrepreneurial spirit. In this episode, we sit down with Adrian Mobilia, the visionary owner of the award-winning Salted Vines Vineyard & Winery in Frankford, Delaware.
Discover Adrian's roots, which run as deep as the vines he now cultivates. We journey back to his childhood on a sprawling 250-acre fruit and vegetable farm in North East Township, Pennsylvania. It was there, amidst the bountiful harvests of Erie County, that the seeds of his passion for horticulture were sown.
Adrian shares how his father’s unwavering encouragement "strongly" influenced his path to higher education, leading him to earn a degree in Horticulture from Penn State. But the journey from a college graduate to a celebrated winery owner wasn't a straight path. Adrian recounts the twists and turns, including a detour into the world of sales, before he and his wife, Jessica, decided to go "all-in" on their dream.
Hear firsthand about the "bumps in the road" and the calculated risks they took to establish Salted Vines in 2010. It’s a powerful narrative of betting on oneself, weathering the storms, and cultivating success.
