My name is Natasha and I am the founder of The Farmer's Wife Artisan Brand! I live in Wisconsin on a hobby farm where we raise beef and grow cash crop. We have one son who is 15 years old! We have dogs, cats and chickens! My full-time career is a dental hygienist but I really enjoy the farming and artisan life. My husband bought me a scottish highland heifer calf in 2021 for mother's day and she was the inspiration for my logo. She is my girl and my spirit animal. I am the type of person who cannot just sit around and be bored, I think that's why I work full time, created an artisan brand and farm while taking care of my family. I am a very positive and kind person who thinks everything happens for a reason. My favorite quote is, "Live life like someone left the gate open." If you have ever seen cattle frolic through the gate to an open pasture, you know why.
What made you start your business?
I started my business because I really enjoy creating all natural products. I started with candles, then to wax melts and then to lip balm. I really do feel that all natural products with limited ingredients are much healthier for everyone and are of better quality as well.
What is your favorite product you make/sell?
My favorite product that I make and sell is a tough one! I really do enjoy both candles & lip balms. My favorite scent right now for my candles is brown sugar + fig and I absolutely love my bubblegum lip balm!
What is your biggest accomplishment so far?
My biggest accomplishment so far is creating signature blends as a private label for boutiques. I really enjoy getting to know the owners and their favorite cozy scent that they love. I then turn it into a unique blend that only their store will sell.
What is your best selling item?
Lately, my best-selling product has been the Herbal Essence candles and wax melts. So, if you're in love with the smell of the shampoo by herbal essence, you will fall in love with the candle.
What are 3 business goals you have for the next year?
Three goals I have for the next year are:
- All Natural Deodorant
- Room Sprays
- All ceramic candle vessels
Thanks Natasha! And I need to add, the lip balm in my shop is AMAZING. Your lips will feel silky smooth after using it.
