<p>When you’re raised by a beekeeper and have a passion for nature, going into the natural products business seems like a perfect fit. But the founder of Babo Botanicals took a detour—first as a Peace Corps volunteer and then spending a decade in product development—before committing to launch her own line. For Babo Botanicals, family comes first. In fact, the brand’s name is inspired by a stuffed bunny named “Babo” who always made the founder’s son feel safe. That’s the same feeling Kate Solomon wants parents to feel when they bring her products into their homes. Today, Babo makes pure, high quality skin and sun care, with ingredients <a href="https://thrivemarket.com/certifications/certified-organic"target="_blank">sourced from organic farms</a> in the U.S. </p>
