Meet The Bffs
Hi there, my name is Mary, one of the proud owners of Bff Coffees, and let me tell you, life smells a little sweeter when surrounded by the aroma of freshly brewed coffee every day. Sharing my passion for coffee with amazing people has been a dream come true—though my mornings have set a higher standard for what qualifies as a "good cup!"
I’ve always been lucky to have strong, confident, and extraordinary women in my life, and they inspire me to celebrate the good in people every day. Speaking of challenges and inspiration, when I turned 59, I decided to shake things up—big time. I committed to running a marathon. Fun fact: I hadn’t even run a single mile before. But hey, what’s life without a bold leap? Training taught me that I’m stronger than I ever realized. Race day was unforgettable—I embraced every step and moment and crossed that finish line with a renewed sense of confidence and determination. It proves we can tackle the seemingly impossible when we set our minds to it.
I’ve been married to a great guy for 47 years. Together, we’ve built a life filled with joy, two amazing kids, and five beautiful grandkids who keep us on our toes.
When I’m not working or hanging out with my family, you can find me hiking, traveling, indulging in good wine, delicious food, and of course, sipping on exceptional coffee. Life is an adventure, and I’m here for every sip, step, and story along the way.
Hi, I'm Tawnee, co-founder of Bff Coffees, a company that celebrates women and great coffee. As a mom of three with a whirlwind schedule and a passion for traveling, I’m dedicated to showing my daughter—and others—that it’s possible to pursue your passions, work hard, and embrace life’s opportunities.
Owning a business, working hard, being a mom, and still finding time to enjoy life is the balance I strive for every day. With nearly 20 years of experience in sales and marketing, I’ve always loved roles where I can use my skills to impact people’s lives positively.
Despite my busy lifestyle, I prioritize reconnecting with my best friends several times a year, no matter where life takes us. Those friendships and the incredible women who raised me have been my foundation, inspiring me to create a support system for my daughter that’s just as strong and enduring. When I’m not working or traveling, I love spending time outdoors, hanging out with my family, walking my three dogs, reading, and unwinding in my hot tub. I’m so excited to share this journey with you through BFF Coffees—because life’s better with strong women, lasting friendships, and a great cup of coffee.
