Anniversary Party!
We have so much to celebrate! While I have made personal care products for my family for many years, we formally entered the goat milk soap business approximately 8 years ago.

When we moved to the farm, one of our goals was to live a healthier lifestyle. Having access to raw goat milk was but one step in the process.
