The Wilson Fire Starter
Meet Wilson™ — your ultimate fire-starting companion. Our fire starters are made with just two ingredients: pure Canadian beeswax and cedar wood shavings reclaimed from our wood furniture-making byproducts. That's it — nothing else!
Our wood shavings are completely untreated, with no glues, dyes, coatings, preservatives, or additives. There are no essential oils, fragrances, resins, paraffins, or petroleum-based ingredients. Each bucket offers a complimentary wildflower seed packet as a separate gift. The wildflower seed packet is not an ingredient in the fire starters. It’s a small giveback to the environment. Now that’s buzz worthy news! Wilson’s are lights reliably even in harsh weather. Perfect for survival kits, camping trips, or backyard adventures.
Our 65-pod bucket keeps you ready for any trip. Don’t get caught without your Wilson!
