Kevin Smith’s first business venture was a chicken barn he bought off his parents as a teenager. He then started Builder’s Gallery — an architectural mill work company — at age 18. Last year, the 56 year old entrepreneur began his latest project: Reinventing the town of Mt. Etna, Indiana. We recorded this episode from Rustic River Outfitters — a former saw mill he retrofitted into a wine and beer tasting room, events center, and kayaking outfitter. Rustic River is just the beginning of Kevin’s vision for this little town perched on a reservoir. Give this a listen for the rest of the story…along with inspiration and entrepreneurial lessons.
