A personal message from Laura

Once I understood its remarkable benefits, I made my first batch of tallow soap for my family—and immediately removed every chemical-laden bar from our home. Then I asked myself: What else can tallow do? Lotions replaced commercial moisturizers. Vapor rub replaced petroleum-based products. Antibiotic ointment, lip balms, candles—one by one, I found cleaner alternatives.

This journey led me to a simple question: What has God already provided in creation to heal and nourish the bodies He designed? He knows us intimately and has given us everything we need. Yet somewhere along the way, we traded ancestral wisdom for convenient shortcuts—many containing petroleum, a known carcinogen, and countless other questionable ingredients.

I'm learning that convenience often comes at a cost, and our health shouldn't be the price we pay. My mission is to rediscover the traditions that truly benefit our families—traditions rooted in ingredients that have served humanity for centuries, enhanced by the therapeutic properties of pure essential oils.

Every product we offer has been personally tested in our own home first. If we wouldn't use it on our children, we won't ask you to use it on yours.

We're just getting started. More products are coming, and we want to hear from you. Contact us to request products or share feedback—your input helps us serve you better.

Thank you for supporting Rendered Traditions!

Thank you, God, for your wisdom in this endeavor. Thank you for the endless natural remedies you have provided. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude and awe.

Thank you to my husband Tim and my son David. You are right alongside me contributing 100% - this is a family business, and they have put in countless hours of work.

Thank you to the Guenther Farm for their amazing and quality supply of suet which we render to make the tallow, and especially to Therese, for encouraging me to take the leap.
