Flavio Lichtenthal and Lisa Landry come from the world of food, music, and art. Flavio—a  musician and veteran of New York’s most successful restaurants—along with his wife, Lisa, an art director at a design agency, moved to the Berkshires 18 years ago; Flavio took over food operations at Gould Farm and Lisa continued with her writing and design work in NYC. They joined their passions and talents in creating No. Six Depot Roastery, Cafe and Gallery, informed by Flavio’s upbringing in Buenos Aires and Lisa’s time living in Italy—combining food, coffee, travel and art. Lisa and Flavio travel multiple times a year to origin countries to directly source and select coffee that is not only delicious but has a strong social mission.
