Candles
Candles were a necessity of daily life in the Victorian Era, as there was no electricity. Scented candles were often used in funeral ceremonies along with flowers, as they masked any unpleasant odours that may have lingered during a 'wake.' Thankfully, today, we do have electricity and use candles to create ambiance to our spaces. We have chosen to work with a local company that creates soy based candles for your enjoyment. These candles are derived from natural ingredients, burn clean (no toxins, carcinogens or pollutants), and made with cotton wicks. We carry a year round 'Signature Series' & 'Seasonal Scents.' Did we mention that our 8oz. candles burn for 50-60 hours?!
Maple Heights Farms
We are so happy to carry this amazing local maple syrup. This is a family run businesses that also offers tours during the production season. Be sure to pick some next time you visit and taste for yourself!
The Spearhead Collection
We are pleased to carry a quality line of cast iron products for your home decor! 'The Spearhead Collection' is a family owned and operated company, founded in 2006, in Alberta, Canada. They carry a unique range of products that are new, mostly copies of originals, full of old character, different to modern day trends, usable and cost effective. All of their products are handmade &/or hand finished, 80% of which is cast iron/steel, along with some brass, wood, tin and leather. You can expect that slight imperfections and little quirks appear her and there which is somewhat by design, in fact, to retain "the old style, vintage look," exactly as intended.

Innisfil Creek Honey Products
We are thrilled to offer 'Innisfil Creek' local honey here in our store!
The earliest sweet was, of course honey, which people have eaten since prehistoric times. Honey is nature’s unrefined sweetener and is produced by the bees from the nectar of flowers. Honey contains important vitamins and nutrients such as Vitamin A, B, C, D and K along with niacin, riboflavin, calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, potassium and zinc. Honey also contains flavonoids and phenolic acids which act as antioxidants that keep bad bacteria away.
