Fangboner Farms

With the pandemic still in full swing, many of us are still doing much of our work remotely, making it difficult to create a work-life balance. Setting intentions to get things done without letting work bleed too heavily into your personal life can be a challenge. Below we've listed 3 different ways you can use products from our farm to set a routine in 2021.

1. Smudging - if you don't know what smudging is all about, here is an explanation from a previous blog. Basically, lighting these sage smudge sticks purifies the air and helps keep your workspace calm but efficient.

2. Chamomile/mint tea - The chamomile is calming, while the mint helps keep you alert and energized, two very important parts of a productive-yet-calm work day!

3. Aromatherapy - nothing sets the tone for day like the perfect scent. Try any of our soy candles for a nice pick-me-up, but we like the combo offered in our rosemary/mint/lavender candle for when you want to get things done while still staying zenned out.

If you've been on Pinterest anytime within the last few years, you've probably run into the Scandinavian term "hygge" (pronounced "hue-guh"). So what is it? Basically, in Nordic countries, they have long dark winters that require lots of indoor time, so they like to employ hygge in their space to make that time not just bearable, but comfy-cozy.

Hygge is all about twinkle lights, candles, soft blankets, and sitting around the fire with your loved ones playing board games instead of playing on your phone. It's about bringing the natural world into your home when it is too snowy and cold to spend lots of time outdoors. 

To implement hygge Fangboner style, try lighting our Winter at Fangboner Farms candle while enjoying a hot cup of one of our many tea blends, get comfy under your softest blanket and do something that brings you pure joy - it could be reading a book, catching up with an old friend over the phone, or knitting. Find your own way to hygge this winter, and we promise you'll never feel resentful of the cold days ahead.

Thanksgiving Day may look a lot different this year, but it's important to observe the gratitude of being with the people you love - even if you do have to employ Zoom calls and outdoor social distancing. We want you to make the most of your holiday, so we put together a little Fangboner Farms list of 5 things to make your day special.

1. Yum Spice Blend - No matter what dish you cook for Turkey Day, this blend is the perfect way to add a little zest to it.

2. Meat Rubs - Whether you choose Fab Flava or Melting Pot, it's an easy way to prepare your turkey, ham or other meats for your Thanksgiving spread.

3. Festive Candles - Who doesn't want to be greeted by the smell of our Cinnamon Bun candle, or Winter at Fangboner Farms? It will help keep your spirits bright.

4. Decadent Desserts - With 48 hours notice, we'll have Grandma's Lemon Loaf, Chocolate Dreamland, or both ready for pickup or delivery (within 10 miles).

5. Sanitizers - Check out our Unicorn Tie Dye Disinfectant Wipes, Hand Gel Sanitizer, and more on our Accessories page to stay safe on Thanksgiving Day.

We hope you all enjoy this precious time with family, and have a wonderful holiday!
