Inspiration:
Located in the heart of the Artesian Belt, Poteet is recognized as the "Strawberry Capital of Texas". The Poteet Strawberry Festival Association celebrates every year with the Annual Poteet Strawberry Festival, typically held the second weekend of April every year. Since the annual event draws crowds in excess of 100,000, the demand for Poteet strawberries is greater than the supply. You’ll find hundreds of venders throughout the area selling their homegrown berries to the community of visitors.

About Our Candles:
The production is kept small — candles are poured in batches of 6-8 in Austin, TX. Each candle, from placing the all-natural wick, to wax melting and pouring, to wick-cutting and labeling, is constructed by hand with the highest standards in mind. Under optimal conditions, our 9 oz candles will burn for 50+ hours and our 16oz will burn for 90+ hours.
Benefits of Soy Wax:
Eco-friendly, renewable, and sustainable
Helps support the American farmer
Cleans up easier using soap and hot water
Longer burn time
Burning Instructions:
To ensure safe and even burning, allow the wax to puddle entire length of jar before blowing out and limit the amount of burn time to no more than 3 hours per burn. Trim wicks to ⅛" to ¼" prior to each burn.
After the Burn:
To continue our sustainability efforts, jars can easily be cleaned out and reused. Pour your favorite whiskey on the rocks or throw some canning lids on to preserve your favorite vegetables.
