Women Owned
Starting out as a simple request from Sydney to her mom Heather for safe, all-natural products for her son, has transformed into something much more meaningful. With a background in esthetics and a passion for using pure, wholesome ingredients, they teamed up to handcraft skincare and body care that they could trust for their family. Seeing the incredible benefits of these products, they decided to turn their labor of love into a business.

Everyday Essentials
Our Everyday Essentials are the heart of Meadowlark Made - timeless, year-round staples crafted for daily nourishment. From whipped tallow butters to herbal salves to lip balms, each formula is rooted in tradition, made with farm-grown ingredients, and designed to support skin naturally through every season.
Why Pork Tallow?
We love that more and more people are turning back to ancestral ingredients - and tallow is one of the most nourishing.
Our skincare is made with pasture-raised pork tallow from Kunekune pigs on our family farm. Like beef tallow, it’s rich in skin-loving vitamins A, D, E, and K; but pork tallow contains especially high levels of vitamin D, a key nutrient for skin repair and radiance.
It also has a lighter texture and milder scent than beef tallow, creating a silky, easily absorbed balm that feels as good as it is for you.
Seasonal Offerings

Seasonal Offerings *
Inspired by the rhythms of the land and the wisdom of our foremothers, our Seasonal Offerings celebrate the turning of time. From prairie herbs in bloom to cozy winter blends, each limited release is handcrafted in small batches using ingredients grown, foraged, or harvested at just the right moment.
Our Family Farm
Meadowlark Made begins on our small, family farm where heritage Kunekune pigs graze on open pasture and medicinal herbs grow in the prairie wind. This is where we slow-render tallow, gather botanicals, and carry on the work of generations before us. Everything we make is guided by faith, shaped by the seasons, and starts here.
