More details on Forget Me Not Farm:

Jennifer Davis of Forget Me Not Farm is a yoga instructor, homeschool co-op organizer and teacher, a homeschool mom and more. She and her husband, Sean, started Forget Me Not Farm in Paris, KY, which is an umbrella for their many ventures in learning, creating, and sharing. Each of the gift boxes contain at least one item from her. I've known Jennifer for several years now, and she is constantly learning and teaching. She brings so much enthusiasm and care to each endeavor that she takes on. You will feel that in all the details of these products.

She is making our candles and teas. She hand-pours the candles with organic soy wax, uses wooden wicks and only essential oils for scenting. The teas are all made in small batches with organic and ethically sourced ingredients with health and wellness in mind. There are two tea combinations: Restful Tea Blend and Love Yourself Tea Blend. Each gift box that has tea will also come with a few tea bags to put the tea in.

When I'm setting the scene to journal, I've found that something as simple as a hot beverage and candle lift my mood and ground me. It turns the ordinary into something sacred and special. It is another signal to myself that I'm setting aside this time to reflect. It helps me be more intentional in quieting down and turning inward. Jennifer's tea blends and candles are perfect for doing just that.
