'We love Stark County!' Meet Mary Nervo, S&M Winery co-owner

CANAL FULTON − Mary Nervo said her work in the wine industry started as a hobby during the cold months. "It was something to do during the winter," said Nervo, who owns S&M Winery in Canal Fulton with her life partner, Steve Geiger. She said appreciation from friends pushed it farther. "After our friends tried our wine, they said, ‘If you sold this wine, we would buy it!’ she said. "After a few years, we talked to Doog, the owner of Doog’s Mini-Mart in Canal Fulton and the local liquor store in the plaza, about carrying our wine once we went through the licensing process, and he agreed to sell it." Things took off from there, bringing awards and expansion plans. “Once we got our wines into other liquor stores, our little business took off!," Nervo said. "We made it into the finals for the Community Choice Awards! We started getting numerous calls from people trying to find our winery. The only problem: We only had a production facility, not a tasting room. So, in March of 2024, we opened the doors to S&M Winery. Steve built a beautiful tasting room that is filled with great wine, great customers who

"They needed to make a choice," Clear said. "We’re fighting to go to the state championship, I don’t feel like we needed much more motivation than that. "On the court after that timeout, they were like — this is what we’re going to do. Yeah, it was a timeout, but it was also them taking initiative and them taking responsibility and saying — we’re going to change this." STATE XC: Lexington's amazing journey leads to Division II state runner-up finish Just when it seemed like Hillsdale had the momentum, Dalton settled in and proceeded to go on a 25-11 run to steal away the third and take a 2-1 lead in the match.
