A Salve with History
Balm of Gilead has been treasured since biblical times—once valued as highly as gold. While the original came from the Arabian balsam tree, its story continues here in Alberta through the fragrant buds of the balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera), found along our rivers and forests.
Our salve is slowly infused with these resin-rich buds for eight weeks in organic jojoba oil, then blended with beeswax to create a protective, soothing balm. The result? A naturally aromatic salve with warm, woodsy notes that soften, comfort, and support your skin’s natural balance.
