Seven years ago, Jenny Watson, the heart and soul behind The Elderberry Co., started crafting Elderberry Syrup from her home kitchen. Fast forward to 2025, and that small-batch dream has blossomed into a nationwide brand, delivering the goodness of natural remedies straight to families across the country. At The Elderberry Co., we’re driven by a simple belief: healthy families are happy families.
We’re thrilled to share some exciting news— The Elderberry Co. is now officially certified as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), the gold standard for women-owned businesses. This milestone is more than just a badge of honor; it’s a testament to Jenny’s vision and dedication.
“It’s incredibly inspiring for young girls to see women building and leading businesses,” Jenny Watson says. “I’m so proud to join this amazing network of hardworking women and to show what’s possible with passion and perseverance.”
Earning WBENC certification wasn’t a simple checkbox—it involved a thorough review of our business, including an on-site inspection, to confirm that The Elderberry Co. is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by women. This recognition opens doors to a vibrant community of fellow women-owned businesses, aligning perfectly with our values of connection and authenticity. It’s also a step toward expanding our reach, helping us partner with more distributors so you can find The Elderberry Co. on shelves near you.
Here’s to growing stronger, together—cheers to healthy, happy families everywhere!
