BREWING SUSTAINABILITY FROM THE START - Bob McCafferty - North Country Brewing - Episode 4

from Behind the Business - A Butler County Business Matters Podcast · host Butler County Business Matters

In this episode, I'm talking with Bob McCafferty of North Country Brewing about how sustainability fits into his business.  A former farmer with a degree of environment geoscience from Slippery Rock University, Bob now owns North Country Brewing in Slippery Rock and Harmony Inn in Harmony. He also partners with SRU to run a program called Grow Together Aquaponics at the North Country Brewing Company cannery. The program provides job training to individuals with disabilities with the goal that they can then enter the job market and be integrated into a workplace. The program also provides McCafferty’s the restaurant with microgreens. In this episode, Bob and I discuss his back story and what sustainability practices he has implemented within his businesses. Being a bit of a nerd about sustainability myself I was really excited for this interview and I hope you find our discussion helpful. Without further ado, let's get into the episode.
