Mike Carson is the owner of Gold Hill Gardens, an outdoor wedding and event venue in Auburn, California. In this episode of the TGS Podcast, he shares how he and his wife Cindy left their home in Granite Bay to live in a 24-foot trailer with two young kids, fought a three-year permit battle, and turned 36 acres in Placer County into a venue that now hosts over 50 weddings and events a year.

We also talk about what it takes to open an event venue near Sacramento, hospitality lessons from hundreds of weddings, community involvement through Leadership Auburn and the Auburn Chamber, and Mike's advice for young entrepreneurs: follow your passion and live within your means.
