Handcrafted from pure beeswax sourced from Swarmbustin’ Honey in Chester County, PA, these candles celebrate the beauty of the harvest.
The Heirloom Tomato Candle was molded after a perfect unripe tomato found in the lush tunnels of Kneehigh Farm — a 100% women-owned and operated farm outside Pottstown, PA.
The Corn Candle takes its form from the second ear ever harvested from the backyard garden — a playful nod to summer abundance and nature’s design.
Each piece is a true collaboration between bees, beekeepers, and farmers, transformed by the mold makers at Artifaqt.
Beeswax burns cleaner, brighter, and longer than most waxes, making it a great eco-friendly choice and offering a gentle, honeyed aroma.
Everything is designed and made in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

Candle Care Instructions
Always burn on a metal or ceramic dish to avoid a fire. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Corn candles:
Light the wick from the bottom near the wax for the first burn. Do not light from the tip of the wick.
Wax will eventually drip from this candle. This is unavoidable with the sculptural form of this design. If you’d like a longer burn, extinguish the candle when the wax pool breaks and relight the candle after the wax has cooled. We recommend burning for no longer than 2 hours at a time.
- Tomato candles:
To avoid tunneling, burn for at least 2-3 hours per session. Candles have memories! If you don’t allow the wax pool to reach its full diameter it will adversely effect your candle’s burn.
- All candles:
Trim the wick to 1/4" before each lighting. It's important to trim the wick during or immediately after burning your candle. Trimming a cold wick may break the wick off, making relighting it difficult.
If there is a carbon build up (build up that resembles a little black mushroom), extinguish the candle, cut the wick, and re-light.
To prevent uneven burning, use a metal tool to center the wick if necessary.
To extinguish, dunk the wick into the wax pool and straighten.
