Our Mission
Our skin is our largest organ and also one of the most important. It absorbs what we put on it, so we need to be especially careful that we are not using anything that could make our bodies sick. At the Tassajara Outpost we keep things simple and clean. No additives and no chemicals. Just natural ingredients combined with your skins health in mind.
We are actively working to eliminate plastic completely from our business. As we work towards this goal and continue to work with other small businesses to renormalize a plastic free world, we sincerely appreciate our customers business and support. It is my sincere hope that as more consumers support these kinds of business, more products and innovations will become available to move us closer to a plastic free world.

Meet Iris
Iris McGilloway, cannot remember a time when she wasn't creating. The mystical spirit of California’s Monterey Peninsula, and the artists and landscape that surrounded her, inspired her as she dabbled in painting and art as a child. A native of the Monterey Peninsula, she now raises her daughters on a beautiful slice of land deep in the Carmel Valley, where she tends to livestock and a large apothecary garden that she makes medicinal potions from.
Sustainability is at the core of everything that Iris creates. Observing the natural world through a lens of textures and colors sparks endless exploration of various mediums such as block printing, painting, drawing, wood engraving, metal work and cooking for her work to emerge through.
Iris owns several businesses that house her various passions, Tassajara Outpost, Skye Tide Farm and The Small Business Greenhouse. Through these ventures Iris sparks magic for not only herself, but her community as well.
