The smell is delicate and minimal but still lovely. Infused with homegrown rose petals, it is a multi-use bar, nice in hair too!

Why do we use LARD in our Soaps?
It is a local ingredient that our community produces in EXCESS. Leftover trimmings often go to WASTE. As well, they are naturally durable to the elements and processing. Choosing local and reducing imported ingredients is something we are passionate about! We believe it is sustainable to our immediate community, keeps prices down and allows us to really know where our ingredients come from.
Ingredient Sourcing
We source from a local farm and butcher shoppe known for their free range heritage pigs. We render the lard ourseleves. The animals are pasture raised and fed no GMO
Organic Plants
Sourced from organic Canadian suppliers and local farmers and largely from the Nature IS Health garden- where we do not spray any chemicals. I harvest the plants, air dry them and process them into infused herbal oils that we then add into our products.
Product Life
We make small batches and use minimal additional oils/essential oils. The product is long-lasting and a little bit goes a long way. For longer shelf life please allow for soap to dry out in-between uses, as natural soap becomes gummy and soft when left to stand in water. We like to use a wooden or ceramic soap dish with proper drainage.
