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 Todds 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. Thats 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. We know that a group of talented individuals, creating in harmony together, is an incredible experience to be part of and a terrific way to make a living and grow as a person.

For us, this is all part of building a great business and a great lifestyle.
DFW Business Values
As a community, Dry Farm Wines values well-being, creative expression, and winning together. Our values arent 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
- 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.
- No Meeting Mondays– Although everyone is expected to be available for other communications on Monday, there will be no scheduled meetings outside of department meetings and Company All Hands. All meetings and normal gatherings will be on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Monday is for creative flow time.
- 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).
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, thats okay. We might not be the best fit for you. But if you read this and jump with excitement, then lets continue.
