Lauren’s grandmother, Connie Barnum, started Glen Liquors, the predecessor to The Town Cellar nearly, 50 years ago. Since a very early age, Lauren’s been hanging out behind the counter at the store, swiping lollipops and trying to figure out how the cash register works. As a bigger kid, she developed a keen interest in all things fermented, going so far as to dabble in the cheesemaking biz and spending a year living in France, eating and drinking her way through the country.
