Donna Martin
Owner & Winemaker
Mill River Winery

Mill River Winery is a 100% woman-owned business established in 2010. Donna established Mill River Winery after significant market research into the economic feasibility of developing a sustainable winery on the North Shore, an area where wineries are not commonplace. The study culminated with writing a business plan to secure commercial funding to purchase a cider mill property (circa 1890) and convert it into a winery with a tasting room and vineyard. Prior to joining the wine world, Donna was employed as a Ph.D chemist and as an assistant professor of chemistry at Rhode Island College.
