History
Established in 2009.
I started the Olive Tree out of my love for candles and the ambiance they create. When you light a candle it not only releases fragrance but it also emits a light that cannot be substituted by any other source. I am also asthmatic so I was not able to burn paraffin candles as they would close my air passages. I wanted a cleaner burning more natural candle that would burn clean and have a long burn life. So, I did my research and with a lot of testing I settled into soy wax. The natural, renewal resource. I also have skin allergies, so I went to school for lotion making and aromatherapy classes so that I could make my own lotions and to have more skin nourishing oils that go on to my skin.

Business Owner
I started making soy candles in 2002 and soon after moved into the soaps and lotions area as well. When I was laid off from the banking industry that is when I went into business full time. I also give back to the people by donating 10% of every sale to Under the Tents of Shem where they feed the homeless on Skid Row in LA.
