Lighten the Mood
Minnesota Vigil
Our candle company is grounded in our Minnesota roots and the belief that being a good neighbor matters. That people matter. That being ‘light’ for one another, matters.
As our state experiences the presence of federal law enforcement, we stand united with our immigrant neighbors. On January 24th, Minnesotans were invited to simultaneously light at candle, as a way of connecting, honoring, and holding space for each other.
In this light, we have crafted the “Minnesota Vigil” 4 oz. travel candle. Take it on the go, light it in resistance, gift it to a friend. It’s a blend of frosted pine (ahem, we are a winter people) and cinnamon - with a little extra spice thrown in. After all, Minnesotans have shown the world we can be a bit spicy!
Candles are $8, shipping or local meet-up available. All proceeds benefit reputable organizations on the ground - feeding neighbors and organizing relief efforts. Keep vigil. Let your light shine.

In 2024, our family purchased Great North Candle Company from the DeSanto family, who built the business from the ground up over the previous ten years. Like them, our family makes every Great North candle in our home studio in Duluth, Minnesota. Each candle is 100% soy, scented to perfection, and hand-poured with care.
