It's our birthday today and it's times like these that we embark on a bit of reflection. The single thing that keeps us going is you, our customers. It's your hundreds of ideas brewing, your passion and ambition, your search for better, your stories and dreams. This is why we do what we do.

earthYARD and Native Oils Australia founder David Johnson appeared on Landline last Sunday in an overview of the Australian essential oil industry and it's forecast for Australian farmers. And we could be more proud.

Autumn is for getting stuff done. We talk analysis, inner and out. Plus did you notice the sale is still going? It's going to keep going! Woo hoo!

You've probably heard the term in relation to coffee beans and maybe even cocoa. Apply it to essential oils and it means exactly the same thing.

We were so lucky to chat to Modern Hair and Beauty magazine about all things oil and beauty for their 13th issue. From the what's in it that does it, to our pick of tips for oils for beauty and even use around the house.

To diffuse or to burn. The buzz out there is that diffusing is the new burning and people are just going bonkers for these ultrasonic beauties.

We love oils. That’s a bit obvious.

A lot of what we’ve been showing you lately has been a little more swayed towards the types of products that can be created when using oils as base ingredients (queue moisturisers, cleansers, scrubs, serums, soaps, beauty products in general). This week we want to touch on how essential oils can become a necessary companion to each season and the trials and tribulations we face over the course of a year.

Here's the deal, we've taken down the hydrosols that were previously available on our store. But before you freak out read on to find out what's happening.

Where did all the organics go?

If you've been asking, chances are we've already called you and told you all about it, but if we haven't spoken to you yet, let us better explain ourselves.
We've summarised everything you need to know in one page (which is hard for us because we can talk a bit). It covers why we're here, who we are and how we select the products we sell to all our lovely friends. You can read about our here.
