Apples in the Back Seat; Sweaters that Smell like Last Year
Autumn in Maryland is when you stop fighting the calendar. The tomatoes are done. The bees are slowing down. You find yourself wanting tea that tastes like something.
Read
The Autumn Prosperity collection is pumpkin and spice without smelling like a candle store. Autumn Harvest Body Scrub with walnut shells that actually exfoliate. Cider and Spice Tea that tastes like the cider your neighbor makes, not the stuff from the jug. Cranberry Honey that's tart enough to balance the sweet.
The honey's darker now. Whatever was blooming in September and October makes honey that tastes stronger, earthier. The lollipops come in cinnamon and ginger—what people want when the air gets cold. Everything here works when you realize you need socks again.
“Drawing inspiration from the bounty of nature and the honeybee, we create products that nurture your inner and outer beauty with Farm to Body® ingredients sourced from the earth. I hope you'll enjoy the expansive energy and beauty of our apiary in each Bee Inspired® product.”

Step 1
Set an Intention
Light an Autumn Harvest Luxe Soy Candle and brew a cup of Cider and Spice Tea with a spoonful of Cranberry Honey. The honey's tart. The tea tastes like actual cider. Sit with it.
Step 2
Exfoliate Your Body
Autumn Harvest Body Scrub uses honey crystals and ground walnut shells—more texture than summer scrub, less than salt scrub. The pumpkin enzymes do the actual work. The spice and citrus oils just smell good.
Directions: Apply to damp skin in circular motions, working up from your feet. Let it sit for a minute so the enzymes can work. Rinse with warm water, towel dry.
Step 3
Purify Your Face & Body
Clarity Dry Mask is a powder you mix yourself—clay, oats, buttermilk, coconut milk. The buttermilk is what makes this one different from the other masks. Works on faces and bodies.
Directions: Mix 2 parts powder with 1 part liquid. Apply for 10-15 minutes or until dry. Rinse with warm water.
Step 4
Soak
Peace of Mind Bath Soak is sea salt and lavender buds. Same as the summer soak. Works year-round. People use this when their skin starts feeling tight from the dry air.
Directions: Add 4-6 tablespoons to warm bath water. Soak for 20 minutes. Rinse with cool water after.
Step 5
Hydrate
Autumn Harvest Body Butter has pumpkin, spice, clove, and citrus oils. Heavier than Place in the Sun, not as thick as Sea+Tea. Made for when the air starts drying out but it's not winter yet.
Directions: Apply to clean, slightly damp skin. Reapply on hands and elbows—they'll dry out first when the heat kicks on.
Living with Autumn
September through November in the Mid-Atlantic is when the air changes. Humidity drops. Furnaces turn on. Your knuckles crack when you wash dishes. The light hits different.
This collection's for that—body care that's richer than summer without being winter-heavy. Candles that smell like what's actually happening (spice, leaves, wood smoke) not artificial pumpkin. Tea you want to drink hot. Honey that tastes dark because it came from the last flowers before frost.
The bees are done working. They're clustered in the hive eating stored honey, keeping the queen warm. That's why fall honey feels like the end of something—because it is.
Autumn honey comes from whatever bloomed late in the season—asters, goldenrod, late wildflowers. It's darker and stronger than spring or summer honey. Cranberry Honey is tart, which is unusual—most honey is just sweet. Some people love the darker flavors. Some people think it's too much.
Pumpkin, clove, cinnamon, orange. It smells like the spices you'd put in pie, not like a synthetic pumpkin spice candle. The citrus keeps it from being too heavy. If you hate anything that smells like fall baking, this isn't for you.
Yes. Place in the Sun is made for humidity. Autumn Harvest is richer—formulated for when the air starts getting dry but you don't need winter-level moisture yet. If you run hot or live somewhere humid year-round, stick with Place in the Sun.
The walnut shells are ground fine, but it's still more abrasive than the honey crystal scrubs. Most people use it neck-down. If you want to try it on your face, use a very light touch and test on your jawline first. The Clarity Dry Mask is gentler for faces.
The Autumn Harvest Gift Set includes the full ritual. The Petite Autumn Prosperity Set has four products in smaller sizes. Apple Honey Lollipops make good add-ons or stocking stuffers. All come ready to gift.
Autumn's the easiest season for shipping—not hot enough to melt things, not cold enough to freeze anything. Orders go out every weekday with no weather delays.
This isn't artificial pumpkin spice—it's actual spice oils with pumpkin. But if you're completely over anything fall-scented, try Sea+Tea (coastal herbs, year-round) or Peace of Mind (straight lavender). Both work in dry autumn air.
