Our Story
We’re Erin and Thomas Welch, the husband-and-wife team behind Craft & Cork Shuttle. Not long ago, we decided to trade the constant rush and stress of Northern Virginia for the slower pace and wide-open beauty of the Shenandoah Valley — and it’s one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. We fell in love quickly: the scenery, the sense of community, and the amazing locally owned wineries and breweries made us feel right at home.
By day, Erin teaches at a local high school, and she’s also the creative force behind Craft & Cork. From branding to guest experience, she brings the warmth, imagination, and personality that shape who we are. Thomas works in logistics and has always dreamed of running his own business. He’s the entrepreneurial spark and the operations expert who makes sure everything runs smoothly — routes, schedules, you name it.
Together, we realized we had the perfect mix of creativity and logistical know-how to create something special for the Valley. As parents of two kids, we value slowing down, enjoying good company, and making the most of the time we have — and we wanted to help others do the same.
Craft & Cork Shuttle grew out of our love for this region and our passion for supporting local businesses. We’re here to help you explore the Valley’s best wineries and breweries without the stress, so you can relax, sip, and enjoy the journey.
We can’t wait to meet you — and we’re excited to share this adventure, one sip at a time.
