One recipe for him, one for her — both rendered the slow way from grass-fed suet, in small batches, by hand. Nothing added that doesn’t belong on skin.

Flat Rock sits just south of Hendersonville, a few minutes further down the road from our Fletcher kitchen. About as local as our grass-fed tallow gets.
Flat Rock is Carl Sandburg's old home, the state theater at the Flat Rock Playhouse, and shady summer-colony lanes under tall pines. A quiet, made-by-hand kind of place — which happens to suit a quiet, made-by-hand kind of balm.
A pea-sized amount covers a whole face. Whipped tallow is concentrated, so a jar lasts far longer than its size suggests — more is not better.
You won’t find us on a shelf in Flat Rock — every jar comes straight from our kitchen in Fletcher, North Carolina to your door. No middleman, no store markup. The first batch is rendering now, and the waitlist gets it first.

Yes. We ship grass-fed tallow balm to Flat Rock, North Carolina and across the United States. Every jar is rendered and jarred by hand in Fletcher, North Carolina.
It's our own climate — humid mountain summers, dry crisp winters, drying elevation — and we render specifically for it. Patch-test to start, as with anything.
Tallow is rendered beef fat. Its fatty-acid profile — mostly oleic, stearic, and palmitic — is close to the oils skin makes on its own, so it absorbs rather than sitting on top. Grass-fed tallow also carries the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
Most lotions are mostly water, held together with emulsifiers and preserved to stay shelf-stable. A tallow balm skips the water entirely — just rendered grass-fed fat, whipped soft — so a little goes further and the ingredient list stays short.
Both use the same grass-fed tallow base. His is heavier and barely scented; Hers is whipped lighter and softened with a little honey.
Longer than it looks. A pea-sized amount covers a whole face, so most people find one jar lasts a good while even with daily use.
