Our story

 

Hi there! I’m Mihaela, the founder of Green Acre Scent. What began as a deeply personal journey back in 2011 has since blossomed into something I’m incredibly proud to share with you.

A little backstory: life threw me a curveball when I began experiencing unexpected health issues, including severe panic attacks. It was a confusing and difficult time, but it sparked a determination in me to find answers. I thought back to my childhood spent on my grandparents’ farm, surrounded by the wholesome simplicity of nature, and realized that returning to those roots might hold the key.

In 2012, my family and I made a big change and moved to a cozy home outside Gatineau (QC) city, where we transformed one acre of land into our own little paradise. We planted vegetables, herbs, medicinal plants, fruits, and plenty of flowers. It was a labor of love, and reconnecting with nature helped us rediscover a simpler, healthier way of living.

Inspired by the abundance and healing power of nature, I embraced a back-to-basics approach and began crafting my own natural body care and home-essential products. Using local wild-harvested and home-grown organic botanicals, as well as organic ingredients whenever possible, I poured my heart into every creation. These products are nature-curated—thoughtfully designed with nature’s gifts to nurture your health and well-being. Countless hours went into learning, researching, formulating, testing, and refining until each product embodied the quality and care I envisioned.

My family, friends, and neighbors played a vital role in this journey, generously testing my creations, offering thoughtful feedback, and encouraging me to share them with others. I am profoundly grateful for their unwavering support and belief in me—it has truly been a blessing.

That’s how Green Acre Scent came to life in 2018. 

Fast forward to fall 2024, and we’ve embarked on another exciting chapter: we moved to a charming little community on the outskirts of Fredericton (NB), embraced by the beauty of a magnificent forest. Surrounded by towering trees, the serenity of nature, and the fresh, invigorating air, this peaceful sanctuary continues to inspire our work and fuels our passion for creating products that celebrate the richness and simplicity of the natural world.

At Green Acre Scent, every product is crafted with care, designed to support your well-being and honor the environment. I invite you to explore our collection, discover the beauty of nature-inspired living, and join us on this journey. Whether you’re seeking something to elevate your daily routine or a thoughtful gift for someone special, I hope our nature-curated products bring a little extra joy and serenity to your life.

Thank you for stopping by and being part of this adventure!

Warmly,
Mihaela
