When you support a small business, you are helping a dream come true. You are helping send a son or daughter to college or trade school, you are giving hope, and contributing to the local economy.
“America’s small businesses reflect the best of who we are as a Nation—daring and innovative, courageous and hopeful, always working hard and looking ahead for the next great idea.” - Obama 2013
I make every effort to support my fellow entrepreneurs, artisans, and hard working start-ups. I will be adding to my list over time but here are a few:

Gardners Local Honey

Montoso Gardens, Puerto Rico. Not local but a small business that has treated me exceptionally well in providing a product I need (cocoa pods) but are not available around here.
I do my best to be fair with my pricing because I believe that quality skincare should not be out of reach for anyone.
To have quality products - I need quality ingredients. Many of which are "exotic" oils that simply are not produced in the US.
I am getting messages from my suppliers saying prices on ingredients & packaging will be increasing.
I will continue to do my absolute best to remain fair in my pricing and adjust only when necessary.
Please know that many small businesses and local artisans are now facing the same challenges but, with your support, we (hopefully) will get through.
