OUR JOURNEY

We started in Africa where the saying

"A Farmer makes a plan"

was pretty much how we approached most things 

OUR MISSION

Redefining the Way 
We Move

Switching from advertising to making all-natural soaps, candles, and beauty creams was a clever move because, let’s be honest, selling “the world’s best toothpaste” at 3 a.m. never smelled as good as lavender and shea butter.

In advertising, you’re paid to spin stories; in soap-making, the product already tells its own tale—“I’m pure, I’m natural, and I won’t give you mysterious rashes.” Plus, instead of trying to convince people they need another gadget they’ll use once, now you get to hand them something they actually want: good smells, glowing skin, and an excuse to brag about how “artisanal” their bathroom shelf looks.

 

Quite frankly, it’s the best rebrand ever— but this time you’re selling honesty itself (and it comes in a pretty soap bar or candle).

Our Journey So Far

1995

AROMATHERAPY

My career took a little plot twist when I hit pause on producing TV ads and decided to see if a course in aromatherapy was a clever detour or just me procrastinating with essential oils. Turns out, swapping deadlines and jingles for lavender and eucalyptus was less of a midlife crisis and more of a breakthrough. Instead of convincing people to buy things they didn’t really need, I found myself learning how to make things that could actually help them relax, sleep, or just smell a whole lot nicer.

PLANTING THE SEED

Taking a horticultural course really opened my eyes to the importance of plants—not just as pretty background scenery, but as the quiet superheroes of our world. I started to see how every leaf, root, and flower plays a role in keeping us healthy, fed, and even inspired. What began as learning to pot plants properly turned into a whole new respect for the green magic happening all around us. 🌱
