September’s Soapscription Debut

We’ve already packaged up more than half of our inventory for delivery with the shop being live for only three days. We are thankful and humbled over here for sure. As I’m looking at the order forms and waiting for the regional rate boxes to arrive, (who knew shipping was so streamlined these days with exact boxes to use???!!!-not me) I realized that I haven’t publicly disclosed what bars are in September’s boxes. Our first soapscription boxes. Our debut… our original… us getting our feet wet… our giant leap of faith… Too late to regret. One step at a time. One bite at a time.

Those are my little friendly reminders/pep talks/just keep swimming/etc.

So, without further ado- the soaps that have been curing for weeks and months- the soaps that are completely inspired by what’s been growing around our home all summer long- the soaps that i’m finally excited to put in other households and the soaps that I might look back at in a couple of years and think- wow… that was quite a beginning.

LAVENDER/SAGE

CEDARWOOD/ROSE

LEMONGRASS/EUCALYPTUS

ROSEMARY/GRAPEFRUIT

LEMON/THYME

They’ve got botanicals from our yard, tallow that I’ve rendered from our neighbor’s farms, essential oils derived from the same varieties of plants that we grow, organic and gmo-free oils and beautiful clays from companies that we trust. There is a lot of learning and a whole lot more love in every batch. I see improvements already in the December soaps that I’ve started making but most of all- they’re unique, beautiful and deliciously unrefined.

XO.

    Our farm has evolved and changed over the years… possibly caused a bit of confusion since we’ve changed names from ‘Urbanna Farm’ to ‘Ox and Broadfork’ and since we’ve separated the beekeeping side of the business into ‘The Honey Bee Queen’. Now I’m preparing to change my name from ‘Melissa Anne Williams’ to ‘Gypsy Honey…

    If dumpster diving is wrong then we don’t need to know. Andy came home last week with a case of canning jars that were kindly left beside the dumpster (we take our trash to the dumpster in the sticks) and today he found this gem of a giant jar. I’ve done my fair share of…

    At 10 months old, our sweet Buttercup has a bit of hair on top of that precious head of hers. Yesterday it looked a bit like a dorsal fin. Everything about her is precious. I don’t feel too guilty sharing it with you either, since this isn’t our Urbanna Farm business blog and it’s not…
