Valentine or not, everyone deserves good lip balm 💋

Our You’re the Balm cards are an easy little way to show love without making it weird. Perfect for teachers, friends, coworkers, kids’ classmates, or honestly… yourself. Because dry lips don’t care about your relationship status!

In case I wasn’t clear before, I want to be very clear now: this isn’t about politics. This is about people. Our neighbors. Our communities. What’s happening close to home.

I’ve received a few responses suggesting I should leave topics like this out of my business. I hear that perspective, and I respectfully disagree. My values don’t turn off when I’m working. Shade Tree Naturals exists because it’s rooted in care, integrity, and respect for human dignity, and I’m not willing to separate those things from how I show up.

Speaking honestly doesn’t weaken a business, it defines it. It clarifies who this space is for and who it isn’t. I’m not interested in growth that depends on silence or ignoring actions that directly conflict with my morals. I would rather build something slower, smaller, and more intentional than something bigger that requires me to look away.

I believe deeply in working with people who are aligned. When values are shared, the work feels lighter, the relationships feel real, and showing up feels honest. That kind of connection is what makes running a business feel sustainable and worth it.

I want to be clear: I do not agree, morally or ethically, with what is happening. I won’t back down from that stance, even when it’s uncomfortable.

If this perspective doesn’t align with you, I understand. This space is grounded in my values, and they aren’t up for negotiation. If you feel this is no longer the place for you, you’re free to see yourself out.

With care,
Tara

Some days I really wish I could just show up here, talk about soap and body butter, and keep things business as usual.

But what’s happening in Minnesota feels too close to home to ignore. The Midwest is small. Our communities are connected. These aren’t abstract stories — they’re happening to real people, real families, not far from where we live and work.

As a small business, I believe in care, dignity, and community. I want it to be clear that I stand with Minnesota, with our neighbors, and with anyone feeling scared or unsettled right now.

Holding space for what’s happening doesn’t mean I stop doing my work — it means I do it with intention, empathy, and awareness. 🫶🏻

If you’re feeling heavy about all of this, you’re not alone.

Lavender Lemongrass continues to hold the top spot 🌿🪻

Even through the holidays and all the cozy seasonal scents, you keep coming back to this classic. In fact, our Lavender Lemongrass Body Butter was our best seller last quarter, and we’re not surprised. The calming floral notes paired with bright, fresh citrus make it a favorite year-round for a reason.

If you haven’t tried it yet, now’s the perfect time. If it’s already a staple in your routine, you know why it never goes out of style.

👉 Shop Lavender Lemongrass today and see why it’s our most-loved scent, season after season: https://shadetreenaturals.com/products/lavender-lemongrass-body-butter

As the veil thins and the seasons shift, we mark Samhain, the Celtic New Year, with quiet reflection (and a batch of freshly baked soul cakes).

In our family, this day has become a gentler kind of New Year. When January feels too hectic to slow down and set intentions, we use this time instead — to pause, to honor what’s passed, and to look ahead with purpose.

If you’re craving your own small seasonal ritual, these traditional soul cakes are a beautiful place to start. They’re simple, spiced, and filled with meaning: a sweet way to welcome the turning of the year.
