Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful Fathers and Father figures in our lives. Thank you for being who and how you are! Below we’re featuring some gift ideas for that special Dad or Dads in your life.
A woodsy, uplifting oil blend formulated to make your hair healthy and shiny. This hair oil is a shop favorite not only for the hair on the tops of our heads but for beards as well. It nourishes follicles, encourages hair growth and has been used to help with ingrown hairs and dry skin conditions. Apply oil to wet hair starting at the ends, after shaving or simply rub into beards. A little goes a long way with this wonderful formula.
With the ancient duo of Frankincense and Sandalwood, this nourishing blend is not only incredibly moisturizing, it can be also be used as gentle aromatherapy to encourage calm, grounding and an all around good mood. Use in the shower or bath, as a light massage oil or anytime one wants to enjoy some divine goodness.
Wholesome botanicals filled with vitamins and minerals, deeply nutritive and all around supportive. This blend is great for keeping fathers and the whole family healthy and happy throughout the summer. Because of its nourishment, this highly versatile tea can be used for boosting immunity, whole body strengthening or for the simple enjoyment of a hearty cup of herbal tea.

Herb Infused Barbeque Honey Glaze
Ingredients
1 cup honey
2 Tablespoons dried Ginger
1 Tablespoon dried Rosemary
2 teaspoons dried Thyme
Put honey into a sterilized jar. Place the jar into a double boiler over low heat. Gently heat for 10-15 minutes or until honey is runny. Mix in dried herbs and stir well. Allow honey to infuse for 1-2 hours on LOW heat (we like to use a crockpot with water for the double boiler and keep it on the warm setting). Keep an eye on honey to make sure it never boils. Remove infused honey from double boiler. Strain through cheesecloth or a fine mesh metal strainer. Bottle in a decorative jar and label! Pair with a new set of grill tools to make this a great summertime grilling gift.
