About Us

---

Soon to be Chef Franco is a Chicago Native raised in the west Humboldt Park area before relocating a bit more North west. A very passionate child in all he did he would become obsessed with his challenges at an early age and show glimpses of much potential. Nothing has changed. 

Growing up, Franco watched his mom Mildred Borrero cooked daily for her family as well as always cooking extra and always delivering food to those who needed it. It was something that helped install in him a sense of servitude, giving & sharing that many years later he finds himself on a similar path.

Franco became very passionate about health and food in his 30's and never looked back although he always was conscious of his health . Now into his next decade he is more passionate about sharing health information, remedies, dishes & products than ever before.  Which is why you are here. 

The Natural Branches came about online as he developed his passion for health & healing and combined it with his natural ability to cook and blend spices and dishes. With his unique & creative dishes he quickly gained popularity online sharing his food pictures and natural herbs/tea pictures to the point where friends and family often asked him to set aside products or dishes. 

"It just kind of happened by demand" says Franco into his hardly detectable 40's. (Yes I am a bit Bias lol)

"I guess people see me healthy and realized, I may know what I am doing? " 

Chef Franco attends Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts.

His plans for 2020 are to open a restaurant that includes all his online products in his dishes and teas and more.. He plans to continue growing his online store, name & brand. Internationally as well.
