Notas del episodio
Salinity Seafood & More is a locally-sourced gift shop & online store, oyster education center, and sustainable marketing consultancy based on Whidbey Island, WA. Behind every present on Salinity's shelves are people with stories! Join SeaEO & host Emily Wilder as she talks with Salinity's suppliers, artists, and friends to find out what kind of presence they bring to the world, and why.
In this episode, Emily speaks with Callie Sirak of Tru Tallow, a small-batch, hand-rendered tallow skincare business sourcing suet from local, grass-fed, grass-finished animals on Whidbey Island. Callie shares how a mother's search for a natural remedy for her son's eczema turned into a full-fledged skincare line, and walks through the whole nose-to-tail philosophy behind her products, from her bestselling Tru Blu face moisturizer to Fleece Grease, a beard balm made from sheep tallow. She digs into the ancestral roots of tallow-based skincare, why sourcing and a low-and-slow rendering process matter so much, and why she's committed to staying small and local rather than scaling up.
Come explore the world of tallow-based skincare with Salinity Presents!
