Spring has (almost) sprung!
This month we've launched a BRAND NEW collection! We've created a three candle collection that combines everything that spring has to offer, think about that smell of walking through the fresh produce section at a market during peak harvest season (one of the best feelings ever, IMO). Everything is bright, luscious, fresh, and delicious! With scent notes of sweet basil, ripe tomato and fresh lettuce, you're sure to feel all the excitement and inspiration of the coming season. We give you the Farmer's Market Collection!
We've partnered with Shelmerdine Garden Center for this beautiful collection. In each candle box is a seed packet to grow your very own produce at home! How cool is that?!
Just like how plants need individual care, so do vegetables! Each seed packet has its own growing instructions, but we've added them all here to keep things simple for you at home! Check out the planting guides below for everything you need. Happy growing!
