Wainwright! I’m coming back! 🤍

There’s something about heading back to the Wainwright market that feels a little like going home. I’ve met so many great people there and made some friends along the way, so after being away for a few months, I’m really looking forward to being back and seeing some familiar faces!

I’m bringing something new with me too 🌹

Limited Edition Rose & Vanilla Body Powder
Soft, silky, talc-free and lightly scented with rose & vanilla. I only made a small batch, so once it’s gone, it’s gone!

I may also have a few other limited edition goodies coming with me 👀 but you’ll have to come see what they are! I made VERY limited amounts of these ones, so there won’t be many up for grabs.

A little life update... 🤍

Lately I've been reflecting on how far Root & Rest Body Care has come, and honestly... I'm overwhelmed with gratitude.

When I first started this journey, I had no idea where it would lead. I simply wanted to create products that truly helped people, especially those with sensitive skin. Every kind message, review, repeat customer, and recommendation reminds me why I took the leap.

I'm a mom of four amazing boys, and while I occasionally have a few friends that lend a hand, Root & Rest is, for the most part, a one-woman business. I left my job to pursue this dream full-time, and markets have become how I support my family.

I work from home, which means I'm constantly balancing being a mom and being a business owner at the exact same time. Some days start at 6:00 a.m. and don't end until midnight.

Every formula is researched, tested, and perfected by me. Every batch is handcrafted by me. Every label is designed by me. Every product photo, every social media post, every message, every email, every market application, every order, every inventory count, and every late-night production session... that's all me too.

Like everyone else, life doesn't stop just because you own a business. Recently, both my vehicle and my husband's vehicle decided to give us problems at the same time. It wasn't exactly the timing we were hoping for, and there were moments where we weren't sure how we were going to make everything work while continuing to run the business and care for our family.

During all of this, we were shown an incredible amount of kindness by some truly wonderful people who stepped in to help us when we needed it most. Their generosity allowed us to keep moving forward, and I honestly don't know how to thank them enough. Acts of kindness like that remind me just how amazing people can be.

I'm not sharing this for sympathy. I'm sharing it because sometimes it's easy to forget there's a real person behind a small business. Behind every order is someone juggling family, unexpected life challenges, and a dream they're working incredibly hard to build. Even on the hard days, I wake up determined to keep moving forward because I truly love what I do.

On a happier note... I'm SO excited to finally start sharing some brand-new products with you! 🎉 These have been months in the making, with countless hours spent researching, formulating, testing, tweaking, and making sure they're exactly what I envisioned before ever putting my name on them. I honestly can't wait to introduce them!

Now... if I could just finish designing all the labels... 😂 Those reveals will be coming very soon!

I've also officially purchased my website domain, so a Root & Rest website is finally on the horizon!

To every customer who has supported Root & Rest—whether you've shopped with me, stopped by a market, shared a post, left a review, or recommended me to someone else—thank you. You're not just supporting a small business. You're supporting my family, my dream, and every early morning and late night that goes into making Root & Rest what it is.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in me. I truly couldn't do this without all of you. ❤️

Well... life had other plans! 💚

Unfortunately, due to some unexpected car issues, I won't be able to make it to the Edgerton Market on Saturday, July 4. I'm so sorry to everyone who was planning to stop by.

The good news is that I'll still be at the Ol' MacDonald's Resort Market on Saturday, July 4! Since we've been camping here, it makes the most sense to stay put while I get the vehicle sorted out.

A huge thank you to the amazing team at Ol' MacDonald's Resort for being so accommodating and helping make this last-minute change possible. Your kindness and support mean so much to me and my little business! 💚

⚠️ I also wanted to give everyone a heads-up... I only have THREE Outdoor Defense Mosquito & Tick Sprays left! They've been flying off the table this week, so if you've been thinking about grabbing one before the rest of summer, make sure to stop by early before they're gone!

I'll also have my tallow balms, facial cleanser, lip balms, the Underarm Care System, and more.

Thank you all so much for your understanding and continued support. I can't wait to see everyone on Saturday!
