Bayberry Spa Owner Jen Hagner’s Mission Is To Provide Compassionate Service And Local Initiatives

When Bayberry Spa owner Jen Hagner co-launched Bayberry Spa LLC during 2018, she says it was out of a deep passion to care well for others and give back to her community.

Her study of massage therapy showed her that physiologically, a kind touch can genuinely make a difference. “It just made sense to me that caring for others through touch can have a profound impact on the whole person,” explains Jen.

But the mission of Bayberry Spa doesn’t stop at their spa services. "Our entire team is committed to see our care and effort ripple out into Greenwood, and beyond," Jen adds.

In fact, the overall business of Bayberry is centered around giving back. From seemingly small details, such as the fact that their skin care line, FarmHouse Fresh, actually donates a portion of their proceeds on every product to animal rescues, to partnering with and supporting local non-profits.

One initiative especially close to the hearts of the Bayberry team is the Isiah 117 House. Not only does the spa host events in both winter and summer to platform and highlight the work the local nonprofit does in supporting foster children between placements, but many of the staff also volunteer their own hours at the house itself, tangibly caring for foster children when they need it most.

Even on a global scale, Jen says she and her team strive to give back whenever they can. Last year, Bayberry raised funds to join a mission trip to Poland to care for Ukrainian orphanage workers. While there, she was able to teach about trauma-informed care and daily work on each caregiver through massage. Ultimately, she took the Bayberry experience to them with a restful spa evening.
