Paula Camp
Paula Camp’s love of cider began when she interviewed the famed French chef, Jacques Pépin, and tried his homemade cider. From there, the former Chicago Tribune restaurant critic experimented with a cider recipe from Pépin. In 2016, Paula and her wife, Mary Connors, a former journalist and editor, together with family and friends, transformed their 137-year-old carriage house in Benton Harbor, Michigan into a modern-day craft cidery. In 2020, the Carriage House brand was born.
While the cidery is relatively new, the Carriage House cider-making process dates back centuries — used by Europeans and early American settlers.
