Our Story

Balsam Hollow is located in Minnesota’s beautiful Northern Lakes and Forests Ecoregion on ancestral Ojibwe land. The land here is bursting with life and magic. It has long been a dream of mine to create simple, beautiful skin care inspired by nature. The moment I saw the land here, I knew this was the place I had been waiting for my whole life. Balsam Hollow and the flora and fauna that inhabit this beautiful land are my inspiration. My products are hand-crafted in small batches using plants grown, foraged, or native to Balsam Hollow.

The forests here at Balsam Hollow were logged in years past, disrupting the delicate balance of the forest ecosystem. The diversity of the understory flora has suffered. It is my intention to reintroduce rare, native species and to protect the forest and its inhabitants for years to come.

Thank you for supporting Balsam Hollow.
