It’s often said that one person’s junk is another person’s treasure. Andy Humphrey would likely agree, because the old maple syrup tapping spouts he found in his family’s junk drawer in fifth grade turned into the thriving business he owns and operates today.
An ambitious set of entrepreneurs from America’s heartland, Andy and his wife, Marylin, are proof that the good old Protestant work ethic and American ingenuity aren’t as dead as we may think. Although they’re both only 26 years old, the couple already has more than a decade of business experience under their belt—experience they’re putting to good use as they rapidly expand their various enterprises.
