Our History..
Welcome to the Patchouli Garden website! We are a company that loves authentic Indonesian patchouli and we specialize in our original custom patchouli blends! Everything with the Patchouli Garden name on it, we make right here in our store! We are located in Park Falls, WI. Patchouli Garden was founded 20 years by Lynda Dayton. The store at first was an import store but a few years into future Lynda started experimenting with aromatherapy and making her own products. Fast forward and before she knew it Patchouli Garden had grown into it's own brand! Fall of 2019, Lynda decided to retire. So in December of 2019, an employee of Lynda's bought Patchouli Garden. Her name is Tara Tervort and she is excited for the future of Patchouli Garden. Since the purchase of the company, we moved locations to new larger building in downtown Park Falls, WI. In 2021, Patchouli Garden became federally trademarked. We are our officially a US brand! There are many other fun changes happening to our company and we are very grateful for all our loyal customers! Thank you!
About the owner…
Hello! I’m Tara Tervort and I’m the owner of Patchouli Garden. I am a wife and mom of four. I was an employee for PG when Lynda Dayton was the owner. Toward the end of 2019 Lynda was wanting to retire and sell the company. I love this company and decided to purchase it in December of 2019. I believe this company offers unique and quality products. I hope to continue the legacy of what Lynda Dayton started.
The women behind the products!
Linda has been with the company for almost 18 years! She is a treasure trove of knowledge. She knows every aspect of this company and keeps this company running smoothly. She is the manager, bookkeeper, candle maker, soap maker, and online shipper. She can do it all. She even keeps me (Tara) together. If there is an issue, she is our problem solver. You have probably talked to her over the phone or via email at one point or another. She is intelligent and very kind hearted. I am very grateful to have her.
Linda
Faith
Faith has been with Patchouli Garden for over 6 years. We call her the roll on Queen! She makes most of the perfume roll ons here. Last year she made over 5000 roll ons! Woah! She also makes many of the body sprays, lotions, shower gels, incense, powders, beard oils, etc. She also is one of the regular faces in our local storefront. She is such a kind hearted fun person to be around. She knows everyone by name and is the most friendliest person you’ll ever know. We are so lucky to have her and I’m grateful she’s here. She’s a fast and very diligent worker. If you call us on the phone, you just might get to know her!
Ambre
This is Ambre! She is also my (Tara) sister. She comes in once a week and packs all our incense for us. She also helps polish jewelry and helps cleans the storefront. I’m grateful to have a sister like her. She’s had many health obstacles to overcome in her lifetime but yet she’s the most positive human being I know. Thank you Ambre for just helping out where you can and for all your positive energy you bring to our store when you’re here!
