Alysia Mazzella 100% Beeswax Twin Flame candles
Handmade candles made by artist, candle maker and beekeeper Alysia Mazzella. The centerpiece candle. The Twin Flame is a poem written in beeswax. Includes two candles.
Twin Flames require a holder (not included) to secure in an upright position. Melt base to secure in holder. Cut wick to 1/4” inch before lighting. Approx. 8” length, 1” base. Fits standard size candlesticks, candelabras and taper holders. 2-hour burn time, per candle. Allow to self-extinguish for an optimal burn.
Handmade in upstate New York using 100% locally sourced beeswax and a cotton wick. The hand dipped candlemaking method requires that a central wick is repeatedly submerged into molten beeswax. The width of the candle increases as new layers of wax cure over the previous. Then, two hand dipped tapers are carefully wound together to create one candle. Variations will occur. Always light candles within sight.

We are fundraising $2,000 alongside other farmers and land tenders to support Gazan farmers. Our goal is to fundraise this by May 1st. Our remaining remedy collections and funds from our CSA will go towards supporting Arduna’s initiative. @yousef_sager99 and @arduna_team
Arduna (Our Land) is the legacy project of the courageous martyred farmer Yousef Abu Rabee. Arduna is tended by Yousef’s family and closest friends, continuing his vision of agricultural autonomy and food sovereignty of Gaza. Arduna continues planting despite all odds, caring for our people by cultivating the earth of Yousef's precious homeland. Arduna continues to farm, repair the land, provide water access and do food distribution in both North and Central Gaza.
In early 2024, Yousef returned to farming in the dire moments of starvation that North Gaza was experiencing. Thousands of people did not starve in the North because of Yousef and his fellow farmers. For this courageous act, Yousef was targeted by the occupation and martyred on October 21, 2024. May God have mercy on him.
We are working using the farming cooperative model that Yousef established in 2024, to support 20 farmers in North Gaza in rehabilitating the land and replanting, to ensure we can provide our people with fresh vegetables. We have also reestablished Yousef's nursery, in order to provide these farmers with seedlings. As Yousef used his voice to say so often, the agricultural sector needs international solidarity. So often institutions fail farmers, and it is the support of the international community that is essential in ensuring our courageous farming can continue.
