Turning a passion into a thriving business is no easy feat, but with the right support, it’s possible! Meet Karen Zebrowski and her daughter Nikki Zebrowski-Beck, former nurses who transformed their love for beekeeping into a successful honey business, Backyard Buzz. What began as a side hustle while working at a hospital has now become their full-time focus, producing honey and unique beeswax products. In 2021, Karen and Nikki realized the need to scale their operations and sought guidance from SCORE. Their certified SCORE business mentor helped them realize the true value of their products, repositioning their honey as a luxury indulgence. This led to adjusted pricing and an expanded product line. Today, Backyard Buzz honey is not only sold online but also featured in local restaurants and markets. 🎥: SCORE clients Karen Zebrowski and Nikki Zebrowski-Beck, founders of Backyard Buzz
