few things you might not know about our whale bandanas. 🩵
There’s a lot of heart behind this piece, from Heidi’s longtime love for whales to the artwork itself and the story behind this project.
The fundraiser ends September 7, with $10 from each purchase going to Campobello Whale Rescue. 🐋

Our whale bandanas were made to be worn, loved and taken along for the adventure.
Created in memory of Campobello Whale Rescue co-founder Joe Howlett, $10 from every $30 bandana sold is donated directly to the team and the incredible work they continue to do in the Bay of Fundy and beyond.
The fundraiser runs until Labour Day, so grab your bandana and help us save the whales. 💙🐋

This is what happens when you put two 60 year old in charge of technology. We were positive everything was in place to launch, all the weights and measures had been added, but we forgot to unclick one box and it was showing $16 for shipping one bandana instead of $4. I promise I wasn't trying to rip anyone off. Honest.
Our new whale bandanas are here. 💙
For every bandana sold, $10 will be donated to the Campobello Whale Rescue Team, helping support the incredible work they do rescuing whales throughout the Bay of Fundy and the North Atlantic.
This project feels especially meaningful. As a kid growing up in Wisconsin, we held bake sales to help “save the whales.” Decades later, living on the Bay of Fundy and partnering with the very people doing that work every day feels like something she never could have imagined.
This collection is also a tribute to the legacy of Joe Howlett, whose dedication to whale rescue continues to inspire so many.
Thank you for helping us turn art into action. Every bandana makes a difference.

We’re excited to finally share this with you.
Come back tomorrow to see what we’ve been working on. 🐋
