Welcome to Sugar Bones - Where Magic Meets Medicine

Sugar Bones Farm was founded by Matthew Stapley, Etienne St-Germain and Trenton Toth in 2024.  Born of the idea that as humans we are a part of the earth rather than just living on it, Sugar Bones started off as a dream that has become a reality. 

​

In the dreaming the vision of all that Sugar Bones could become Matthew established a 4-pillar mission: 

​

The first pillar is to bring both natural and spiritual medicines to the world.  We seek to bridge the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and community layers of healing through our products, education and services.   

 

The second pillar is to support people with disabilities through employment opportunities.  All people are unique, gifted and bring something vitally important to the world. 

 

The third pillar is to give a platform to local creators through our consignment program bringing empowerment to creative individuals through self-employment as much as possible. 

 

The fourth pillar is community service (let us know if you've got a fund raiser coming up!). 

​​

It is the unique combination of these four separate but synergistic missions that we hope to create as much positive change as we can in the world. 

​
