“There is something so special to me about a picnic basket under the sun next to the ocean, and I wanted to share that joy with others.’

Our Story

Hello everyone! My name is Madison, and I’m the founder of this little company, The Beach Picnic Co. I’m 24 years old and a West Coast Native. So naturally, the beach and all the flavor that California living brings holds a special place in my heart.

I started out hosting picnics for friends and loved ones, purely as a way to enjoy good food and good company on the beautiful beaches of Orange County, when I realized I could turn this passion of mine into a business that can be shared with so many others. I have always been inspired by classic beach culture and the tastes and styles of my home in Southern California. And thus, The Beach Picnic Company was born.

Creative expression and curating fresh and aesthetically pleasing ways to enjoy the simple pleasures of life under the sun has been a cherished pastime of mine for the last several years, and I can’t wait to invite you along. Whether that be through helping create an intimate and delightful picnic experience - or just appreciating the forever-loved and ever-evolving art of picnicking, cheers to this new venture and thank you all for joining me! Cheers to redefining the classic beach day.

I like to picnic, I hope you do too.

With love and sun,

- Madison Smetana, Founder
