What a wonderful opportunity to not only Support our local Makers, Bakers, Farmers & Small Businesses, but also our local students!!

Please consider bringing a food donation (snack items like granola bars, applesauces, fruit snacks etc) with you on Wednesday to the Pictou Farmers Market 🙏❤️🥰

Thank-you so very much for your Kindness & Generosity 🙏❤️🥰

School Snack Drive, Next Wednesday!

This time, we’re asking YOU to bring food to the market!

Wednesday, August 19th, we’re teaming up with SchoolsPlus to support students at our local schools to start their year off right.

We’ll have a school bus box at the market, and our goal is to fill it with non-perishable lunchbox and snack items for local students.

Think granola bars, crackers, applesauce, dried fruit, oatmeal, cookies, juice boxes and other easy-to-pack snacks. Nut-free options are especially appreciated!

And to make the evening even better, Pictou Countys Rock Station 97.9 will be joining us and playing the tunes!

Bring an item (or a few!) to add to our "bus", then stick around and shop from our amazing local vendors.

4–7 PM
Market Square, (corner of Water and Market St in downtown Pictou)

A huge thank you to everyone who helps make this possible!

As always, thanks so much for Choosing and Supporting our Small Business 🙏❤️

🚨 New & Improved Whipped Tallow Cream 🚨

As many of you folks know, everything I make (soaps, creams etc), I make for myself and our little family ❤️

I've been spending the past few weeks researching and figuring out how to improve on our Whipped Tallow Cream Recipe to make it that much more luxurious - and folks, I'm not trying to toot my own horn, but this stuff is so lovely!! 🙌🙌 And I cannot wait for you to try it!! 😍

I've added a few new luxurious and beneficial oils to the mix (in addition to our Grass Fed Tallow & Neem Oil):

🌱 Jojoba Oil
🌱 Castor Oil
🌱 Amla Oil
🌱 Raspberry Seed Oil

** Please see comments below to hear about the benefits of each of these incredible oils **

I've also changed up my Essential Oil custom blend and replaced it with a new custom blend which smells even better!!

✨️ Ylang Ylang
✨️ Rosemary
✨️ Tea Tree
✨️ Lavender

These luxurious tins of Whipped Tallow Cream are available for only $13.50 each (plus tax) ❤️ (Tins are 2oz size)

📍Pick Up's can be arranged at our farm in Sundridge, or find us at the Pictou Farmers Market Wednesday's from 4pm-7pm ❤️ (we also offer New Glasgow Meet Up's on Thursdays)
