Show Notes
In this episode, Rosie is joined by Sarah, from The Herberowe Candle Co., who talks about her addiction to candles which led to her to start making her own using all-natural ingredients and how it evolved into a business whilst the whole country was in lockdown.
The Herberowe Candle Co makes natural wax candles that are hand-poured in small batches in Lower Heyford. Using a blend of sustainable rapeseed and coconut wax, Herberowe products contain essential oils and support wellbeing, as well as adding natural long-lasting aromas to our homes.
The apothecary-inspired candles are free of soy, toxins, paraffin and other chemicals, and Sarah and Colin also make eco-friendly wax air fresheners, which have been hugely popular. All their packaging and jars are reusable or recyclable. The company is named after a local ancient landscape feature and the candles are inspired by the heritage and flora of the local area. For every candle sold, a donation will be made to MIND.
