EXPERIENCE 263 | The Spirit of Adventure and Community with Joel Gustafson, Founder & CEO

I had Joel Gustafson and Jess Gries into the studio last fall to talk about Seed & Spirit Distilling, and specifically the recent news of their expansion into what was the Funkwerks portion of the building on Lincoln Avenue in Fort Collins. We tasted lots of samples and the guys shared a lot of stories, but with the two of them, there really wasn’t time to do justice to the journey of either partner.  

In the meantime, we were honored to have Seed & Spirit partner with The LoCo Experience podcast as our Spirit Sponsor, and with the opening of their new space upcoming in Q2, it seemed like a perfect time to get to know Joel and his passion for community and adventure - and dreams for the future - a little better.  

We enjoyed some FoCo LoCo’s - with Seed & Spirit’s delicious rum, coconut water, and lime, shared a lot of laughs, and touched on the sources of Joel’s drive to create meaningful community at every stage of the journey.  So please join me in enjoying my conversation with Joel Gustafson.
