On this episode of Community Capital, Rob sits down with Elyse Moore, founder and co-owner of McClements Farm Country Store on Main Street in Brighton. Elyse shares the winding road that brought her from freeze-drying fruit on a hobby farm to navigating a toxic business partnership, losing her storefront, and landing in a space she never could have planned for. The conversation covers what it really means to build a business around mission instead of margin, why chasing trends is usually a losing game, and what faith has to do with entrepreneurship.
