Foundry

About

Scott Turczynski founded Foundry in Historic Valley Junction, West Desmoines, transforming what was once Foundry Distilling Co. The name T12 references the vertebra that altered the course of his life following a spinal cord injury. The program includes custom-branded spirits services and event space for private gatherings. Long-term plans envision a fully accessible distillery built from historic grain silos in nearby Bondurant.
