Elle Correll: Buskey Cider

Elle Correll's life sounds a bit like a country song. Born and
raised in Franklin, Virginia, she moved away from the small town
when the paper mill closed down. Her friend Will also had to
move. But apples would bring the friends back together.


"I was living in DC. It was a lot of fun, but its time had played
out. He was living in Richmond opening the cidery," Elle Correll
said. "So when I met him, the cidery was under construction here
in Scott's Addition. I was like, okay, you're really good at like
the founder, CEO thing. But you could use some help on the PR,
marketing, and the telling people about it side. Enter Elle."


The friends were dating when they launched the cidery in 2016.
They got married about a year later.


"It is super fun and it is also very stressful. We work all the
time," she said about working with her husband. "But it is fun
because you get to learn about your partner so much more than you
would if you just saw them in the evenings because you see how
they are at work and their strengths and their weaknesses and how
they play out in different locations."
