What if a beloved church block party tradition could transform into a flourishing business during a global pandemic? Meet Yvonne Frontera, the dynamic force behind La Frontera Sabrosa, who turned her passion for crafting mouthwatering empanadas into a successful Hispanic woman-owned venture.

She takes us through her inspiring story, from her early days sharing empanadas at church events to establishing a presence in local breweries by September 2020.
