Emergency Pillars Beeswax Candles
Hurricane Helena has caused widespread devastation, leaving many without power. To provide light and comfort during this difficult time, we are sending candles to those affected, helping to light their homes while they await power restoration, and shining a bit of light from our heart to theirs.

We’ve already given a few hundred candles to communities in need, with several hundred more ready to go. Each shipment represents our commitment to supporting loved ones impacted by the storm. We will work tirelessly around the clock pouring the wax just right, until our very last drop.

Shining the Light Together
Many have asked how to purchase additional candles for us to distribute, and get into the hands of those waiting for power, providing forty plus hours of light per clean-burning candle. Your support and the comfort these candles bring are greatly appreciated by us and those in need during these dark days.
Lighting the Way Together: Our Beeswax Candles and the Cajun Navy, Delivering Hope and Warmth!
Hurricane Helena has left many homes in darkness, with power outages continuing in the hardest-hit areas. To bring light and hope to those affected, we are distributing hundreds of our 100% beeswax pillar candles to devastated communities.
We will be sending these candles to the Cajun Navy, who are working tirelessly to aid those impacted by the storm. Each candle provides over 40 hours of clean-burning light, offering much-needed comfort during this difficult time.
Our beeswax is sourced from hives kept on 210 acres of native wildflowers by an Amish beekeeper. We have worked directly with this beekeeper since 1974, ensuring that our beeswax is pure, unadulterated, and ethically sourced. We hand-clean and pour each candle with precision, creating a solid base that burns strong and steady to the very last drop.
Beeswax candles burn significantly longer and cleaner than soy or paraffin alternatives, while also releasing air-purifying negative ions that help clear the air of dust, toxins, and allergens.
100% beeswax candles emit light with the same spectrum as the sun, creating a bright, golden flame known for its calming effect on humans and animals. This light has even been shown to help with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
Here are some other benefits of our beeswax candles:
- Long burn time: Beeswax has a high melting point, so it burns much longer than other candles.
- Bright, warm flame: Beeswax candles burn brighter and emit a warmer tone compared to other candles.
- Smokeless: They are virtually smokeless, making them cleaner for indoor use.
- Safe for allergies: Beeswax candles are safe to burn around people with allergies or asthma.
- Renewable: Beeswax is a renewable resource, unlike paraffin, which is a petroleum byproduct.
- Emits negative ions: Beeswax candles help clean the air of dust, toxins, and allergens.
- Never expires: Unlike soy wax, beeswax doesn’t go rancid, ensuring a long-lasting product.
When you purchase one of our 100% beeswax pillar candles, your contribution helps us produce and send even more candles to those without power due to the devastation of Hurricane Helena. Together, we can bring warmth and light to those in need and continue supporting communities through these difficult times.
Please Take Note...
Due to the increased and necessary focus on the growth of Chickapea Farms' Mi Farm Network, we are temporarily pausing all orders for Chickapea Farms' products, except for our 100% beeswax candles and lanolin products. This pause will enable us to better support the required focus on Mi Farm Network while maintaining the highest quality in our offerings. We appreciate your understanding and continued support during this time.
