FEATURED BUSINESS
Natural Gypsy
In 2011 Cate and Blaine Fabi were living in the city and working their way up the corporate ladder in high-stress jobs with long hours . They were ‘ living the dream ’ with many of life ’ s luxuries , and the future was set with a baby on the way .
By July of that year , everything changed . Baby Jensen was born prematurely at 28 weeks , after a prolonged stay in the hospital for Cate . At just 1.2 kg , he was extremely sick and was given very little chance of survival . Finally , he was able to be released from the hospital after 3 months and 12 years later , he is thriving .
Those early days as new parents made the pair re-evaluate everything . As a young couple who ate well and exercised regularly , they were concerned about what could have caused these health challenges . Thoughts turned to the air they were breathing and the products they used . Moving to Fernie in 2020 , they felt they had positively improved their immediate environment and began to take notice of the ingredients in household products that they used daily - soaps , creams , toothpaste , and more . The range of serious health and environmental issues linked to the potentially toxic and manufactured components were alarming .
Inspired to make a difference , they created a line of products using the best quality natural ingredients like naturally anti-inflammatory Aloe Vera and Chamomile ; Vitamin C & E for healthy skin , and sustainably sourced Magnesium Chloride Flakes to promote healthy muscles , nerves , blood pressure , and protein synthesis . All Natural Gypsy products are safe for the environment and designed to nourish and protect the body .
Natural Gypsy products are handmade in Fernie and available at Eldho ’ s Independent Grocer , The Local Store , Ghostrider Trading Company , The Pantry in Blairmore and from the Natural Gypsy website .
Nature has made our products . We simply assemble them for you . ~ Natural Gypsy .
