Oak & Aspen’s Commitment to Sustainability
-
Naturally Derived Ingredients – Our products are crafted with simple, plant-based ingredients that are vegan, cruelty-free, and gentle on the skin—and the planet.
-
Recycling – We prioritize sustainable packaging options, using elegant glass, recyclable and minimal-waste materials whenever possible. We love our new cardboard shredder which allows us to recycle our own cardboard.
-
Cruelty-Free & Ethical – We never test on animals and ensure our ingredients are ethically sourced, supporting sustainable and responsible suppliers.
-
Handcrafted in Small Batches – Our small-batch production reduces waste and ensures the highest quality in every product we create. We have also donated approximately 150lbs of 'soap ends' (the excess trimmings of our hand cut soap) to local shelters aiding those in need.
Meet the owner
Thea McLeod launched Oak & Aspen in 2021 as a COVID-19 pandemic hobby, a creative outlet that quickly turned into something more. What started as a home based business occupying a single room soon expanded—taking over two, then three, then the entire first floor and kitchen—growing from a one-person operation into a passionate team dedicated to crafting natural, vegan, and cruelty-free bath and body products.
Rooted in Ardrossan, AB, the business has flourished while staying true to its small-town beginnings. With a commitment to quality, sustainability, and community, Oak & Aspen continues to evolve, bringing the essence of nature into everyday self-care.
Quality first
We started making the products we wanted to see in the world and did this with an uncompromising dedication to using simple, clean and vegan ingredients.
Humble beginnings
Our story begins in a small shop with a small team. With nothing but passion and a dream our brand was born.
