What is Goji Berry? Goji berry is a fruit of a shrub native to China and Tibet, also known as wolfberry. Legend says over 2000 years ago, a traveling doctor stumbled upon a village in China where everyone was more than 100 years old. Fascinated, the doctor looked for the cause until he found a concentration of goji berries and plants surrounding the town well.
Regardless of the accuracy of the legend, we do know goji berries have been used in East Asian food, drink and medicine for thousands of years. In recent years, Western culture’s adoption of the “superfruit” has led to widespread acceptance of its beneficial properties.

Wood wick candles can be intimidating at first but they operate just like any regular candle! Here are answers to some commonly asked questions to help you feel comfortable with burning a wood wick candle.
Are wood wick candles safe?

Are there any restrictions on burning wood wick candles?
The National Candle Association advises that no candle should be burnt for more than 4 hours in one sitting. It is also recommended that one should stop burning the candle when there is 1/2 of wax left. Never leave the candle unattended and keep away from children and pets.
Black smoke is coming out of my candle, what do I do?
All candles (not just wood wick candles) will product black smoke if you burn them for long enough. Simply trim the wick to 1/8 inch before each burn to get rid of the smoke. Trimming the wick ensures the candle is safe for the environment and makes it last longer.
How do I light a wood wick candle?

I accidentally cut my wood wick too short and now it won’t light, what do I do?
Don’t worry this happens to the best of us! If your candle lights for a short period of time, simply use a napkin to soak up the melted wax and it’ll go back to normal. If your candle is not lighting at all, scrape off some of the wax around the wood and try lighting it again. The wax is the fuel to the wick, and there is just too much fuel for the candle to catch.
