About Monika

I’m a local beekeeper in Franklin Park, Illinois, and the heart behind Organic Golden Honey.

My connection with nature began when I was a little girl. I was already collecting herbs, observing plants, insects, butterflies, and lightning bugs, and discovering the amazing world around me. I was fascinated by how much nature provides and by the traditional ways plants and herbs have been used for generations.

That curiosity stayed with me throughout my life. Over time, it grew into a passion for natural living, gardening, pollinators, and eventually beekeeping. When bees became part of my life, everything seemed to come together—the plants, herbs, flowers, pollinators, and the incredible balance that connects them all.
