📖 Chapter 17: A Pawsitive Partnership — Our Paw Balm Goes Public 🐝🐾 

🐾 From Kitchen to Counter
When we first made our nose and paw balm, it was simply to try something new — a natural, beeswax-based balm to protect and soothe pets’ paws and noses. We wanted something gentle, safe, and effective.

To make sure we got it right, we reached out to Amy Hall, founder and owner of Amy’s Pet Supplies, based on a local farm surrounded by small independent retailers. Amy has dedicated her life to the care and wellbeing of animals and is also a pet first aid instructor. With her wealth of hands-on experience, she helped us ensure our ingredients are safe — and which ones to avoid — helping us perfect our recipe.

✨ A Buzzing Partnership
Once we had the final formula, we shared it with Amy and we’re thrilled to say that Amy has now agreed to stock our balm in her shop!

It’s a proud moment for us — seeing a product made from our bees’ wax and a lot of love sitting alongside trusted pet care essentials at such a lovely community spot.

💡 Did you know?
Beeswax creates a natural barrier that helps protect skin while still allowing it to breathe — perfect for dry, cracked paws in winter. Combined with gentle oils, it helps moisturise and protect against cold, wet, and salt-treated paths.

🌼 Supporting Local, Naturally
Working with Amy has been a wonderful reminder of how connected our community is — Every tin of balm carries a little of that shared care and collaboration.
