Evening in the Garden

Just after sunset down the holler, when the garden still holds the day’s warmth and the air runs slow through tomato vines and herb beds, that's when the mountains soften and you catch your breath. That moment—green, gentle, alive—is what we’ve poured into Evening in the Garden, our 16 oz mason jar candle hand-poured in a rich coco-soy wax blend by Blue Ridge Whispers.

Picture stepping into your grandmother’s garden as dusk settles: the vines heavy with ripening fruit, the faint tang of tomato leaves crushed beneath your fingers, the last golden rays dancing across basil and thyme. The top notes are bright and alive—lemon peel mingling with the unmistakable earthy freshness of tomato leaf, crisp like a breeze through the leaves. Then you inhale the heart: basil and thyme unfurling like a secret garden waking in twilight, herbaceous and soft, comforting yet vibrant. Finally the base notes ground the whole scene in the hush of nature: green foliage, mossy earth, and warm cedarwood, giving the candle a clean herbal finish that invites you to breathe deep and stay a little while.

Using a coconut-and-soy wax blend means you’re getting a cleaner burn and a rich fragrance throw, filling your space with that garden-at-dusk feeling without fuss. The 16 oz mason jar nods to timeless simplicity, the kind of jar that sits on a porch ledge as the evening slips in and fireflies begin their dance.

Light Evening in the Garden when you’re winding down after a day’s work, when you’re cooking in the kitchen and want nature right alongside, or when you simply long for the gentle calm of a mountain garden at twilight. Hand-poured deep in the Appalachian foothills, this candle isn’t just scent—it’s a return to place, to green leaves and soft earth, to the hush after daylight fades.

Bring the outdoors in. Let the aroma of tomato leaf, lemon peel and fresh herbs carry you into that garden moment—where the ridge meets the vines, and the hush of the evening becomes your room.
