Every single person you will work with is an elite performer and has a deep dedication to being the best in their craft. Our Culture We are driven to create what we love, with people we admire, for a community who loves what we do. Creating what we love Dry Farm Wines started because of Todd’s passion to optimize his health while still enjoying his love for wine. It grew at the intersection of organic artisan wine, health, community, design, travel, and elevated taste. That’s the space in which we create and dream still today. With people we admire We need to mutually admire, respect, and trust the people we work with. We celebrate being an elite team that enjoys excellence for excellence's sake.

DFW Business Values As a community, Dry Farm Wines values well-being, creative expression, and winning together. Our values aren’t a set of rules, so much as the ingredients that keep our team healthy and strong. We all are committed to showing up with these values: Admiration - We admire and respect each other Excellence - We have an internal drive for excellence in all things Innovation - We are always adapting and pushing the envelope Group Flow - We love creating together and we trust each other Self-Directed Responsibility - We get things done with energy, cleverness, and without requiring much oversight. We like coaching, not managing. We view business like a team sport. We choose to play because we love what we do and we love working with each other. When we win, we share prosperity together. When we come up short, we hold ourselves and each other accountable to learn and grow. Freedom & Responsibility We believe freedom and flexibility are important personal values in our lives today, and we want to lean into them further. People create at their highest when they are focused, rested, and leave space for the creative process. But we also recognize that, within a collaborative organization, too much flexibility can lead to unstructured and isolated lives. In pursuit of our best work in a fulfilling, challenging work environment, we have set forth a few expectations. Schedule & Expectations We have an office in NYC (Chelsea) and a studio upstate in Hudson Valley (Poughkeepsie). 4 Day Work Week - We encourage everyone to view Friday (or whichever day becomes your flex day) as a day for personal growth, learning, travel, new experiences, extended fitness, and deep creative work. Anything that inspires and expands your experience, and may bring inspiration and growth to your daily work. Limited Email Outside Working Hours - We do not exchange emails after hours or on weekends unless it pertains to a very urgent matter (eg., an urgent customer delay). Hybrid Studio Policy - We do not believe going to the office five days a week inspires our best work. On the other hand, we believe passionate, ambitious contributors love being together to create. Our studio is in Poughkeepsie, NY and we typically do photoshoots 2-3 times per month. These shoots are typically 3 days. We also have a satellite office in Chelsea, NY, where we meet a few times per month. We are very passionate about our culture. Finding someone who values this type of culture is just as important to us as the ideal role attributes. If you are uncomfortable with anything we do, that’s okay. We might not be the best fit for you. But if you read this and jump with excitement, then let’s continue.
