Operating at Full Capacity


Goats: "Our Soap Shop is running?  Right now?  Full steam ahead?  What'cha makin'?  What'cha makin'?  What'cha makin'?"



Me: "It's a surprise."
Goats: "No fair!  It's our milk!  We must be in the know."
Me: "Well, if I tell you I might as well tell everyone..."

As you might know, the artisan soap we make here on Gael Glen Farm is really something.  It is made with leaf lard rendered from our farm raised pigs (thank you Ham Solo and Gloria Swinem), our own goat milk (thank you Martha and Mellie) and, when the recipe calls for it, our own honey (thank you honey bees)! And with that in mind, I am proud to introduce:

 Gael Glen Farm's Goat Milk Soap Shop's Winter line up

Mandarin, coconut & poppy seed
(when you need to imagine that you are on the beach)

Gingerbread latte

Butterfly pea flower tea

Winter pine with eucalyptus & tea tree essential oils

Turmeric & honey
(unscented & naturally coloured)

Himalayan salt soap with grapefruit essential oil

Rustic rose petal
(unscented hot process soap)

Carrot cake with honey drizzle

The Sage Tahitian
(made with frankincense and sage essential oils)

Three Wise Men
(made with gold, frankincense & sage)

One of the best parts of soap making is cutting the loaves into bars a few days after it has been made.  That is when you can see how the patterns turned out.  Stay turned!

All this soap must cure for 4-6 weeks before it is ready to use.  That means that bars will be ready just in time to be Christmas gifts.  Pre-orders are welcome since we have such a limited supply.  Send us a message and I'll make sure that your order is packaged beautifully and ready to go before the holidays.  $8 per bar or 3 bars for $20.  Local delivery available for orders over $80.

The goats were right - this really is too exciting not to share!
