I'm coming to see you Vancouver!
It's mid September already and I'm busy with the Salt Spring Farmers Market and getting ready for an Oktoberfest Market the last weekend of September in downtown Vancouver! Yes, Vancouver, I'll be there Sept 28th and 29th at the Junction Public Market from 11 am - 9 pm Saturday and 11 am to 7 pm on Sunday. The market is at 200 Granville Street at the outdoor plaza between Waterfront Station and Canada Place. Just down the street from where the Vancouver Christmas Market is held.

A new Hartmont scent has finally arrived!
NEW SCENT ANNOUNCEMENT! Happy August to you! I am so excited to announce my newest Summer scent that I'm sneaking into the line, with still a few weeks left of sunny weather.

More twists and turns than Salt Spring Island roads!

If you get stuck behind someone...

The schedule here is usually something to the tune of January is for dreaming, February is for planning those dreams and then March is for putting it into action or at least getting started. Of course, the larger picture dream doesn't happen right away but small steps that are now being implemented are taking us in that direction and it's really quite exciting. It's a good journey to be on. It's definitely not...
Saying good bye to January and hello to February!
Happy last week of January! I've been busy planning and organizing supplies and stock and have decided to clear out some large Aurora candles that I just have a little too much stock of. It's all part of the organizing and building stock for the 2024 season that has me looking at these few left overs and thinking to myself that I'd rather that you got to enjoy them. So I'm doing a spend $100 and get a free large candle of my choice for you promo. You will notice the difference in coloring of these candles as the color...
