Recipient of the WEDC
PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AWARD
Rowse is no longer affiliated with Veryfine, but
the family juice legacy carries on. He purchased
Carlson Orchards from the Carlsons, his lifelong
family friends, to bring their apple orchard to the
next level of production. e company sells more
than a million and a half gallons of cider per year
across New England and eastern New York.
It's great, Rowse said, because he's spent most
of his career doing the only thing he ever wanted
to do.
"I tell people, 'I don't know how to do anything
else,'" Rowse said. "It was a good fit for me, it was
a good business play, and consumers were looking
for minimally processed, natural local products.
It clearly fit the bill and it was a win-win for
everybody, including for customers."
