“The farmer’s son may have chosen a different path than the generations before him, but he still understands the importance of building a life based on hard work, authenticity and the honest values demonstrated by his parents and grandparents. Instilled at an early age, these traits just stick when you’re from a farm”

Chasing the sun’s warm rays while enjoying a slow Sunday spent at the workshop puttering away on a few different projects. We’ve been a bit radio silent the past while, enjoying all that these warmer days have had to offer while also scheming, sketching, planning, pouring, labelling and getting ready for the days + months ahead. The workshop’s a sea of activity which is so dang exciting. There’s a pile of new fun coming down the pipeline, but before any of that, let’s all get out there + enjoy the rest of what summer has to offer. ✨
You can never go wrong with our signature Campfire candle! Each 8oz candle will give you 45 to 50 hours of burn-time enjoyment, as you sit back, close your eyes and remember all those campfire stories around the fire. You know the type - that big fish that got away, biggest storm to hit the cabin, that time your dad fell off the dock, the time a bear wandered past the cabin, who really won the beer pong tournament...your mom or your auntie. _ Open up the door to some of your favourite summer memories with your own Campfire candle. Find at our awesome stockists across the country including @roblinworkandsport, @carsonarthur123, @bluemoonflorals, @fromageriebothwell and @luxefurnitureco. Checkout www.farmerssonco.com for a complete listing or stores near you!
Planning a camping adventure or heading out to the cabin this weekend? Is so, you’ll want to pickup one of our Palo Santo bundles! Around these parts, we like to use Palo Santo daily to refresh and energize the air around both the workshop as well as at home. The fragrant smoke instantly makes everything feel fresh and clean. Our Palo Santo also works great out at the lake helping to remove stagnant air in your tent, bunkhouse or cabin. Packed the tent up while it was wet? Stuck staying in that seldom used bunkhouse? We’ve got yah covered! Palo Santo’s a great way to naturally repel mosquitos! Take it from a chandler who they love to chomp on. Anytime we’re around the campfire or hanging on the dock, we light, let the fragrant smoke swirl around and we’re soon bug free! Plus, all of our Palo Santo is ethically sourced from a reputable partner farm in Ecuador where only branches + trees that have died naturally are harvested. Plus our partner farm has dedicated themselves to reforestation, tagging and monitoring of new trees for future generations, so you can burn +enjoy without concern. _ Find our Palo Santo at select stockists across Canada including @forkstradingcompany, @oldstownsquare, @blackmarketprovisions and @_basketfullgifts!
Sunday feels. 🌲🌲🌲
Have you checked out the recently opened @larkwpg? _ Our friends Kristen + Kyle of @thesnd + Chew Catering on Waterloo Avenue in Winnipeg’s River Heights neighbourhood have recently branded out with this beautiful new concept + space in the Exchange District.

Back at it pouring candles while daydreaming about the caverns we explored this past week. 🌲🌲🌲 _ August is shaping up to be a busy month around these parts + we couldn’t be more excited. We’ve been quietly slugging away on a couple of fun things this summer and everything is slowly coming together, which is exciting because it’s a lot of work and there’s a pile of details when you’re figuring it out for yourself. We’re excited to show yah what we’ve been slugging away at, but we’re going to keep tightlipped (as hard as it is) for just a little bit longer as we iron out the last few kinks (and hit refresh on the courier tracking page one more time). Currently burning around the shop? One of our faves and yours, Teak + Tobacco. Indonesian teak oil, Tobacco flower blossom and just a hint of bergamot. Light, fresh and perfect for these toasty summer days.
Finding inspiration around every corner.
Enjoying the dog days of summer (literally). _ The first half of 2019 saw us busier than ever and I’m so damn thankful for your continued support of Farmer’s Son Co. and the little candle line that could! Your love + encouragement for what I’m doing means more than you’ll ever know! Every purchase, the support and feedback from my amazing stockist partners, your DMs, emails and comments keep us going! There’s so much on the go for fall + the winter ahead! New ideas, new collections and a pile of events + exciting collaborations. I’ve had a busy summer putting things together and can’t wait to start unveiling everything! But, when you’re a one chandler show doing everything from scent development + labeling boxes to editing photos, coming up with content and scraping wax off the shop floor (I get a bit messy from time to time), you eventually realize (and are told) that it’s time for a quick break to recharge the batteries. As an entrepreneur / maker, you want to do EVERYTHING right away, but I’ve learnt that’s the quickest way to just drain your batteries....leading to walking around like a zombie. I’ve been spending the week up north hanging out with Jake and some of my fave people. We’re enjoying a bit of r’n’r, shooting some photos and actually enjoying the lack of cell service. Whoever you are, and whatever you’ve got going on, make sure you take a few minutes to recharge your batteries this summer. Be it some time at the lake in hammock with a happy Golden Retriever, drinks on the patio with your pals, or even an afternoon in the backyard with some tunes and a good book. These days go by too quickly - let’s make the most of them! We can’t wait to get back in the shop to putting the finishing touches on some new stuff...but before that, it’s time for another coffee + then a quick nap. _ Cheers, Dan
