Talli Chaimovitz
For over 20 years, Talli has embraced homesteading as a way of life, using nature to create unique and wholesome products. She mastered the art of growing, wildcrafting, harvesting, and preparing plants for teas, tinctures, ointments, and soap—all while developing a deep love for bees. After years of beekeeping, she began incorporating beeswax into her products, eventually becoming a dedicated artisan of beeswax candles and soaps.
Her small-batch, cold-process soaps are made with high-quality plant oils, botanicals, and essential oils, their vibrant colours derived from natural herbs, clays, and flowers. Beeswax adds longevity to each bar. Her herbal salves, crafted with nourishing oils and organic botanicals, soothe and heal, with beeswax as a key ingredient.
Following a 4,000-year-old chandler tradition, each candle is hand-poured, dipped, and finished in her cozy studio, nestled at the forest’s edge in Combermere, overlooking the Mighty Madawaska River.
