Retreat Candles are locally made in Ottawa with the world's most sustainable vegan wax, phthalate and paraben-free fragrances, and have FSC-certified wooden wicks (that crackle). Each candle comes with a seed-paper bookmark to plant in your candle jar afterwards, and the best part...partial proceeds of every single candle go back to kids and youth mental health initiatives in Ottawa.
Feel good about what you buy.

Ottawa is the perfect place to experience some of Canada's best attractions, celebrations, and flavours. You can tour iconic Parliament Hill, where you'll be able to see picturesque views from atop one of its many towers as well as witness fascinating history in museums like the Canadian Museum Of Nature or Aviation & Space Museum. There are also plenty of things for visitors and residents who love nature, such as a walkthrough of Gatineau Park, which boasts breathtaking views that will leave anyone speechless! Ottawa has everything anyone could want--whether they prefer skating on Rideau Canal (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), paddling down it, cruising along with their family members, or simply exploring the city by foot; there is something for everyone here!
