A love of beeswax candles and a desire to promote a sustainable culture are all the motivation Katie and Matt Glyer needed to launch Little Bees Candle Company.
“Our goal from the beginning was to create the longest lasting, cleanest burning and sweetest smelling candles,” Matt says. “We went from pouring tealights in our home to offering candles in a variety of shapes.”
Made with Northwest-sourced beeswax and braided cotton wicks, each naturally aromatic candle is hand-poured in Eugene. You’ll find them in your Market Home & Gift section.
