Hello! We are Emma and Tynan, co-owners of Emma & Tynan's Foragables in Southern Ontario, Canada. We are a business that focuses on providing sustainably harvested foragables you can use to build your own pollinator gardens or participate in individual environmental stewardship in your region.
Our practices focus on both sustainability and conservation practices to protect local flora and fauna to combat the loss of populations due to deforestation, roadside clearing, and urbanization. Our hope is to make conservation simpler for the average person in hopes we can mend and rebuild vanishing ecosystems.
Common Milkweed ( Asclepias syriaca) is a native North American species loved by Monarch Butterflies and other pollinators. It is a perennial with pink flowers, perfect for pollinator gardens, personal gardens, or conservation areas.
Our hand-picked, sustainably harvested milkweed floss is a luxurious, silky material for textiles and crafts. Milkweed floss is a hypoallergenic, mildew resistant fiber with insulative properties, perfect to use a filler for stuffed animals, pillows, and clothing.
Dried milkweed pods are an excellent material for natural and sustainable crafting. Common uses include making ornaments, wreaths, and accents for floral arrangements.
