Talking About An Actual Vineyard with Winery Owner Margie Keller

Welcome back Wine and Dime listeners! In this episode I sit down with Margie Keller of Woody Lodge Winery located in Ashville, PA. As you all know by now, I use the vineyard metaphor all the time! Well in this episode, I get to actually talk about a Vineyard, and Wine making!

Margie shares with us her extraordinary journey to becoming a wine maker, from her humble beginnings to an award winning wine maker. She even sent me a bottle of their wine to enjoy while recording the show. Margie was the perfect guest to lead off Women’s History Month, and I think you’ll soon see why! So sit on back, open a bottle of your favorite Woody Lodge Wine and enjoy the show!

Woody Lodge Winery

Tucked away in the hills of the Allegheny Mountains of Central Pennsylvania, we made our wines public from amateur wine making to professional wine making in fall 2013 when Woody Lodge Winery was born.  The love of fine wines has made our lodge the heart of Ashville, Pa and the surrounding area.  We are constantly growing and adding to the your experience at our lodge.

We offer a cozy rustic atmosphere with an elevated deck that is perfect for a romantic date, or time with friends.  Entertainment is offered weekends, no cover charge and you can call ahead to reserve a table.

Wines for all palattes:

Our main varieties include Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Grigio, Traminette for our main whites and Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Chambourcin, Concord for reds. We also have fruit wines and dessert wines for you to come and sample as well.  

Where to find us:

To have our wines readily available in the surrounding areas, we have began to offer them in Giant Eagles, Martin's grocery stores, Levity Brewing in Indiana, Pennsylvania as well as some local six packs.  Our complete list of locations can be found at our locations tab on the website.

We opened our first satellite location downtown Indiana, Pa in Spring 2018.  Its the place to be on your lunch hour, you can bring in your own food, have a glass of wine and socialize.

Uncorking Amy Irvine!!

If any of you have ever met Amy, you know she is passionate about
three things. Family, Finances, and WINE! This comes through in all
that she does and all that she is. When asked to describe herself she first and foremost states, “I am a wife, a daughter, and hopefully a good friend, who happens to also be a financial planner.” Amy holds a Master’s Degree in financial planning and is a Certified Financial Planner TM , Enrolled Agent, Certified College Financial Consultant, and a Financial Wellness Coach with over 25 years of financial planning and industry experience. She is the Founder and owner of Rooted Planning Group, (Formerly known as Irvine Wealth Planning Strategies LLC), which started in 2016 and has grown to include 6 other planners and 2 part-time staff members. Amy is definitely “doing it her way” and has been recognized by her financial planning colleagues as being a “disrupter,” a title she holds close to her heart and is proud of.

Uniquely, at the age of 44, she decided to not only start her only company, but to act on what she defined as her perfect life and she splits her time between Parrish, Florida and Jasper, New York.
On her website it states, “I love what I do, but I also very much enjoy warmth, good
conversation, wine tastings, and volunteering. New York is extraordinary in the summer and fall, but so is Florida in the winter.”
In 2018, she decided it was time to take the stigma out of finances by combining her passion for finances and wine. She started a podcast called “Wine and Dime,” which highlights a different wine and financial topic each week, and she released her book combining those same two passions, titled, “Uncork Your Finances.”
Many of you may know her as one of the co-founders of the Southern Tier Women’s Financial Conference – a day of collaboration and financial education, which will be hosting it’s sixth year!
To round out her volunteering passion, she often provides financial education to the
community through the financial management program of Cornell Cooperative Extension of Steuben County, she serves on the board of Faith-in-Action of Steuben County, volunteers for various Fund For Women of the Southern Tier events, works with the finance committee of the Arts Council of the Southern Finger Lakes, and serves on the board for the Corning Painted Post Historical Society (also known as Heritage Village).
In her downtime, you’re likely to find her with a glass of red wine from one of the many Keuka or Seneca Lake wineries that she highlights in her Wine and Dime Podcast.
