Featured Farm Products
Our pure beeswax candles are a true reflection of the hard work of our bees. It takes thousands of bees and countless hours for them to produce the wax used to build and cap their honeycomb.
We use only beeswax collected from the cappings of the honey we harvest — a natural byproduct of our honey extraction — making these candles a thoughtful, low-waste offering.
Hand-poured in small batches, these candles burn slowly with a warm, natural glow.
Beeswax candles are naturally clean-burning and produce negative ions when burned, which can help reduce airborne pollutants like dust and dander.
Unlike many conventional candles, they contain no synthetic fragrances, dyes, or petroleum-based waxes, making them a simple, non-toxic choice for your home.
Our handcrafted Lotion Bars are made with a simple, nourishing formula designed to deeply moisturize dry, hardworking skin. Solid at room temperature, they melt on contact with your skin, allowing the natural ingredients to glide on smoothly and absorb beautifully without leaving a greasy residue.
Made in small batches using wholesome, skin-loving ingredients, these bars are perfect for hands, elbows, heels, and anywhere your skin needs extra care.
Now available as Lotion Dots:
The same trusted formula, simply poured into a modern dot shape for easy, mess-free use. Lotion Dots are perfect for on-the-go moisturizing, travel, or those who prefer a smaller, more convenient size — all with the same long-lasting hydration as our lotion bars.
Whether you choose the classic bar or the trendy dot, you’re getting the same clean, effective moisturizer made with care.
Both the bar and dots come in a reusable metal tin that is great for travelling and tossing in your bag.
There is also an option to order just a refill bar if you already have a tin.
Comes in unscented, cherry, orange creamsicle, peach or lavender.
Crafted in small batches on our farm, our beeswax lip balm is made with beeswax harvested from our own hives and thoughtfully blended with natural oils and butters. Designed to glide on smoothly, it helps lock in moisture while shielding lips from the elements.
Honest ingredients, simple care, and a little touch of the farm in every tube.
Comes in spearmint or unscented.
Made the old-fashioned way using fresh goat’s milk from our own goats. This cold-process soap produces a rich, creamy lather and reflects the care we put into every bar.
We use minimal ingredients to keep our soaps as natural as possible. Each bar is made with a nourishing blend of olive oil, coconut oil, sweet almond oil, and shea butter. Any color you see comes from natural sources like cocoa powder, charcoal, and clays. We never use mica powders or any ingredients that are harmful to the environment during harvesting or production.
When it comes to scent, most of our bars are scented with essential oils. A select few are made with phthalate-free fragrance oils, including Orange Cranberry and Lemongrass Verbena, and some of the limited seasonal scents as well.
Made in small batches with care from our farm to your home.
