Early reports are good for the Angelica Seal Cream and the Willow cream. Once I get a few more reports I'll be putting them on the website. I'll make one more lotion and cream this season. A chamomile botanical lotion and a Winter Cream for people who suffer in the dry heat of winter. I'll let you know when it's ready.
I'll be removing some on the site due to the success of these additions.
Honey oat lotion, shea body butter, murmuru body butter, and Honey rose face cream. I will be adding a different face cream.
I'll post when the store has stocked all of
these.

We are in testing mode for some new products. If you’d like to test them let me know.

Angelica seal cream is for pain. Both plants have medicinal roots. This is good for arthritis in your hands. The salve is good but for hands it isn’t practical. This has been good for my carpal tunnel.

White willow cream featuring devils claw. This is great. Willows were used to make aspirin by bayer.
Devils claw is a powerful medicine.

H**p healing lotion. It’s light. Suited for summer healing. Easily absorbed. H**p oil use is unrefined so all the good stuff in here.

We will be changing the names of our soaps to favor native plant names (Pinapple & Patchouli will be renamed Paw Paw). Each soap will have information about the native plant it is named after.
Having said that I’d like to introduce a few new soaps.
Orange Fringed Orchid - the earthy notes ground you and it finishes in a light orchid floral note.
“This is a very showy orchid of meadows and open woods. A more southern species, Orange Fringed Orchid (P. cristata), has a flower 3/8 of an inch (9 mm) wide and a spur 1/2-inch (1.3 cm) long, shorter than the fringed lip. Yellow Fringeless Orchid (P. integra), found in southern New Jersey and eastern North Carolina south to Florida and Texas and north to Tennessee, has orange-yellow flowers with a fringeless lip.”

Spicebush - strong pepper notes softened by floral notes and lemongrass.
“Northern Spicebush is a single- or few-stemmed, deciduous shrub, usually 6-15 ft. tall, with glossy leaves and graceful, slender, light green branches. Leaves alternate on the branchlets, up to 6 inches long and 2 1/2 inches wide, upper surface dark green, lower surface lighter in color, obovate, tapering more gradually to the base than to the tip, tip somewhat extended margins without teeth or lobes. Dense clusters of tiny, pale yellow flowers bloom before the leaves from globose buds along the twigs. Flowers occur in umbel-like clusters and are followed by glossy red fruit. Both the fruit and foliage are aromatic. Leaves turn a colorful golden-yellow in fall.”

We will be reformulating our lush style shampoo bars. I am looking for anyone who’d like to test them for me and let me know what they think about the new shampoo bars.

H**p Summer Lotion.
This light lotion is perfect for summer. The summer sun is hotter and more damaging now but who wants to slather heavy creams and butters on their skin. H**p oil has many benefits from topical application. H**p oil, derived from h**p seeds, is gaining popularity for its potential topical benefits, particularly for skin health. It's rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants, which can help moisturize, soothe, and protect the skin. These properties may be beneficial for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne, as well as for reducing signs of aging. H**p oil is a great emollient, meaning it helps to soften and hydrate the skin by attracting and retaining moisture. It's non-comedogenic, so it won't clog pores, making it suitable for various skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin. H**p oil is anti-inflammatory. Fatty acids, like linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and they can help reduce redness, irritation, and discomfort associated with skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. H**p oil contains antioxidants and essential fatty acids, which can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and environmental stressors. Finally, h**p oil can help strengthen the skin's natural barrier, which is important for protecting the skin from external irritants and maintaining hydration.

We have had above levels of rain, heat, humidity this summer. A recipe for aggressive numbers of flies, ticks and mosquitos. Even with the soap it can be challenging to walk through some areas like our back 5 acres.
I use the soap and the bug off cream. Hungry bugs will try to take a bite even if you smell terrible. Presumably if I was starving I’d eat liver - I would not want it but I would try to eat it.

A client and her husband stopped by to purchase some soap. They praised my soap (which I don't mind a bit). They came by last year to by plants and walked along the creek - a mosquito haven - and got bit up.
They realized I had no bug bites at all leading them to try the soap which worked as expected.
It was a wonderful story and I am grateful for the ecological benefits that my soap have.
I am nearly out of soap this year but will have many new ones coming out this summer. This ginger peach soap is out of this world.
Next week is going to be incredibly hot. I will take this opportunity to stock up on the botanical skin care (also nearly gone) and make soap on the days we are closed.
