I loved Ample Hills. Such a bummer that it didn't work out for the founders. A truly epic rise and fall.
I recommend checking out the podcast, As The Ice Cream Churns, which is the rise and fall of Ample Hills from the founders' perspective.

From what I can tell from the podcast and the article, their business was successful enough to weather a few major missteps, but what really sunk them was the factory becoming an unproductive money pit. And the thing is, they might still have turned it around, if not for the pandemic.
Seems like had they had a 3rd founder grounded in business administration, it might have been a different story.
