Boreal Folk is a unique company handcrafting natural skincare products inspired by Canada's northern landscapes. Their products are made from sustainably wildcrafted plants gathered on their acreage and locally sourced Canadian ingredients. Boreal Folk uses minimal recyclable glass & biodegradable packaging to minimize the company's footprint.
Owners & creators, Raphaëlle Gagnon & Mark Coelho are a dynamic duo that launched Boreal Folk from the back of their van in 2015. They then moved into a 1967 bus and handcrafted their line of goods in a 99 square foot workshop called the 'Wilderness Lab’. It was an off-grid mobile studio that travelled with them throughout Canada. The product line is inspired by the beautiful boreal forest and their products clearly reflect its unique essence. They live and work on traditional Anishinabeg lands. A small team now handcrafts Boreal Folk products from their farm in the Wakefield, QC region, made from botanicals found on their property and surroundings forests.
