Wild-Harvested in Alberta’s Boreal Forests
Every tin begins in the forests of Alberta’s Rocky Mountain foothills.
Our family wild-harvests pine and spruce resin by hand, collecting only what the trees naturally offer. Back home, the resin is clarified and filtered in small batches with patience and care.
✅ 100% wild-harvested pine and spruce resin
✅ No fillers, sweeteners, or artificial ingredients
✅ Prepared the same traditional way for generations
This is forest-crafted gum — nothing added, nothing removed.
What Is Traditional Chewing Gum?
Before modern chewing gum relied on manufactured gum bases, people chewed natural tree resins harvested from spruce and pine forests.
Traditional resin gum was valued for its long-lasting chew, earthy aroma, and connection to the land — not sweetness.
This sample tin lets you experience that original form of chewing gum for yourself.
This is not bubble gum.
This is an authentic forest chew.
What to Expect (Important)
Traditional resin gum chews very differently than commercial gum.
✅ On the first bite, the resin may break into small pieces — this is normal
✅ Continued chewing warms the resin, allowing it to soften and come together
✅ Adding a second piece can help first-time chewers form a single chew more easily
After a few uses, forming the gum becomes second nature.
Why People Choose Our Resin Gum

Please Note
✅Not recommended for children
✅ Not recommended for people with braces or dentures, weak teeth or major dental problems, as with any hard candy chew.

This is a traditional resin chew — not a flavored confection.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from modern chewing gum?
Modern gum uses a manufactured gum base designed for sweetness and flavor delivery. Traditional resin gum is made from natural tree resin and is chewed for texture, experience, and ritual rather than sweetness.
Is this plastic-free?
Yes. Our resin gum contains no synthetic gum base and no artificial ingredients.
Is it flavored or sweetened?
No. Resin gum has a mild, natural forest aroma that softens as it is chewed.
How long does resin gum last?
A regular-sized tin can last well over a month for most people.
Individual pieces of resin can be chewed intermittently over multiple days without losing their natural flavor or texture. Simply set the piece aside and return to it later.
This long-lasting quality is one of the reasons traditional resin gum was valued for generations.
