1/30/18 We’re continuing the run up to the AMMA Conference and Mazer Cup Competitions and talking with Diane Currier, owner of HoneyGirl Meadery here in Durham, NC.

Diane started homebrewing beer shortly after moving back to Durham in the early 1990s. She experienced her first mead at Ring of Fire Meadery in Homer Alaska in 2004. After hiking through a field of local fireweed wildflowers, she was introduced to a mead made from those flowers, and was hooked for life. She remains in awe of the extraordinary results of fermenting what is essentially billions of bee visits to flowers and the amazing transformation of nectar into honey into mead.

Diane will be talking at the AMMA Conference about ‘going it alone’ as a solopreneur starting a meadery, digging into the things that worked, and things that didn’t, and the ways she overcame the obstacles to get her meadery opened.
