Connor Jeffreys, President
Originally from Whitby, Ontario, Connor knew he wanted to brew big from an early age. When he was young, he would watch his family make wine and he eventually fell in love with the process. With a biotechnology degree, and a background in fermentation, Connor pours all of his experience into the quality craftsmanship here at Fireside Meadery.

Founders Connor and Maria tying the knot on September 13th, 2025.
" Fireside Meadery began, like most great things, with an idea. We wanted to build something for us, something to share, a way to give back to our community. After brainstorming, our idea formed into a plan. We wanted to build something that inspired laughter and good cheer, but it wasn't until after we shared a bottle of mead with friends around a fire that we decided on the perfect name:
Fireside Meadery.
Fireside Meadery values the celebration of friendship and family, and we cultivate a sharable adventure in every bottle. "
