  • 2018 Farmers Market Season

    We are gearing up for a very exciting season at the farmers markets. We have made some big changes to our schedule this year! We will be at the Charlottesville City Market through the summer. We will be moving to part time at the West End Farmers market. We will no longer be at the Fairgrounds Farmers Market. The Powhatan Farmers Market is now the Westchester Farmers Market… But as always we will be at South of the James (we love our GrowRVA family). Here is our schedule for the upcoming summer:

  • Soap Highlight – Virginia Cedar Goat Milk Soap

    Our Virginia Cedar Goat Milk Soap features the fresh woody scent of Virginia Cedar essential oil.

    Our Virginia Cedar Goat Milk Soap is the same recipe as our Castile soap, so it’s has the same wonderful lotion like lather. We have always suggested using our Castile soap as a shave bar, because the lather gives you an outstanding shave surface. With that in mind we designed our Virginia Cedar to be a shave bar for men. This is obviously not the only use for this soap but it is certainly what we had in mind while making it.

  • Soap Highlight – Irish Goodbye Stout Goat Milk Soap

    We love when we have the opportunity to pair up with other local businesses. It’s fun to created unique products that represents the place you love! Our Irish Goodbye Stout Goat Milk Soap comes from one of these partnerships.

    Virginia has really become a beer hub over the last decade. Virginians love their beer, so having a beer soap in our line just seemed fitting. We paired up with Final Gravity Brewery in Lakeside, VA and used their malted barley from Woods Mill Malt House in Nelson County, VA. We developed this wonderful, rich colored soap, that features a warm oat-like aroma. It’s the perfect soap for all the beer lovers out there!

  • West End Farmers Market

    There are going to be some changes to our market schedule this year. One of the most significant changes is that we will not be at the West End Farmers Market full time anymore. We have been working on broadening our reach, so Kevin is now working at the Charlottesville City Market. Our customers at the West End Market have been loyal to us for years and we didn’t want to completely abandon them so we have found Tara! She will be handling the market for us this year.

    Tara will have a booth at the market for us part time this summer. You guys are going to love her! This is her neighborhood so you might even know her already. Stop by on opening day and say hi!

  • Soap Sets – Heavily Scented Soaps

    It’s time for another soap set! This time around I put together a set of heavily scented soaps.

    Heavily Scented Soap from The Freckled Farm Soap Company

    From Left to Right: Tea Tree, Deep Space, Peppermint Eucalyptus, Deep Sea

    Tea Tree Goat Milk Soap – Tea Tree is a love it or hate it scent. I very rarely see any in between. Personally I absolutely love it! It’s such a fresh scent. Our Tea Tree Goat Milk Soap is not a subtle scent. We don’t shy away in our use of this amazing essential oil.

    Deep Space Goat Milk Soap – My goodness does this soap come up a lot… and it will continue to pop up in different sets. It’s our top seller and for good reason. The heavy use of lavender and tea tree essential oils give this soap a powerful scent.

    Peppermint Eucalyptus Goat Milk Soap – This soap has a crisp fresh scent and it is far from light. This soap will wake you up! It’s my all time favorite scent combination.

    Deep Sea Goat Milk Soap – This soap features the scents of eucalyptus, juniper berry, and rosemary. It’s like a day at the spa. It will have no trouble feeling a bathroom with it’s lovely aroma.

  • Westchester Farmers Market

    We have loved being a part of the Powhatan Farmers Market the last few years and we are happy to continue to be a part of it through the many changes that it has gone through.

    For the first few years that we were involved in the market we were in front of the Tractor Supply in Powhatan. It was a great location and the Powhatan community was very supportive. Unfortunately last year the market lost it’s “lease” at this location and the market managers were forced to find us a new place to hold the market. There were several locations considered and ultimately they settled on Westchester Commons in Midlothian, right outside of Powhatan. While we were sad to longer be in Powhatan this has proven to be a great place to hold the market as well and it’s only a few miles from the Tractor Supply location, so it continues to be convenient for our loyal Powhatan customers.

    So here we are in a new year… Our second year at Westchester Commons. There have been a few changes to improve the market even further. The market is no longer called the Powhatan Farmers Market. It is now officially called the Westchester Farmers Market. Instead of setting up in the parking lot in front of the Jo-Ann Fabrics we are now in the grassy area near the Plaza Azteca and the Noodles and Company. This area is a lot more pedestrian friendly and should improve the over all feel of the market. It’s going to be another great year and we hope you come out to see us and all the other awesome vendors!

    The market starts on May 3rd!

  • Soap Highlight – Coffee Goat Milk Soap

    Our Coffee Goat Milk Soap is such a versatile soap!

    Our Coffee Goat Milk Soap is great for cooks, gardeners, mechanics, and so much more. The soap itself doesn’t have a very strong scent (it smells a little like cream with a slight hint of coffee) but it is excellent for neutralizing strong scents. It helps remove scents like garlic and onion from your skin, making it an excellent kitchen soap. The coffee grounds act as a heavy exfoliant, for when you need some exfoliation, but it’s also great for removing dirt stains from gardeners hands or grease stains from the skin of people who were working on machinery.

    This soap is made with a coffee infused oil that we make, espresso, and fresh coffee grounds. All the coffee we use is rainforest safe!
