  • What’s in our Soap Dish – November

    November is usually the month we start using the wood stove to heat the house. We don’t have a fire going all day every day yet, like it will be in January and February, but it still gets a decent amount of use. This means the air in the house tends to be on the drier side and it dries out our skin. So what soap do we use in November…

    Oatmeal Honey Goat Milk Soap

    Like with our Castile Goat Milk Soap, which was in our soap dish back in January to help us deal with dry skin, our Oatmeal Honey Goat Milk Soap is a great soap to moisture your dry skin during the winter months. This really comes in handy for me this time of year when my skin starts to react to the humidity and weather changes.

  • Soap Tester Testimonial #2

    Last week I shared a testimonial from Sandy, one of our soap testers. This week I am sharing one from Dottie M…

    “Jim and I signed up to test The Freckled Farm soaps because we are drawn to natural products and we love the farm’s owners and wanted to support them. I do have a science background and wondered if a natural soap could compete with the R and D resources of Proctor & Gamble, etc. From the first day we were both hooked. It’s hard to describe the difference. We felt very clean and moisturized. Other moisturizing soaps left a feeling of something on your skin. The dry, scaly look disappeared with one use and we didn’t feel covered in lotion. We loved the fragrance of the Sunrise Citrus soap. It’s clean and bright, a perfect morning shower experience! We have our order in, waiting for the first shipment.” – Dottie

  • Why You Should be Using Goat Milk Soap!

    If you haven’t used goat milk soap before then you might not be aware of it’s amazing benefits! Below I have put together a list of why you should be using goat milk soap… and more specifically why you should be using OUR goat milk soap.

    1. Soap made with goat milk is said to contain caprylic, capric and caproic acids. All of these work together to maintain the perfect pH (or acidity) for human skin and hair.
    2. Goat milk soap may help to reduce inflammation in skin.
    3. The cream in goat milk makes the soap highly moisturizing.
    4. It contains essential nutrients and vitamins like vitamin A, C, B1, B6, B12, and E. These nutrients and vitamins help repair damaged skin cells.
    5. Alpha-hydroxy acids can be found in goat milk. In soap these acids break down the bond in dead skin cells so they may be washed way, leaving behind smoother skin.
    6. Our soaps free of chemicals and only made with natural products; raw goat milk, oils, and essential oils for fragrances. We never use artificial dyes or fragrances.
    7. By purchasing our soap you are directly supporting a family and helping us achieve our dream of becoming self-sustaining.

  • My First Experience with Goat Milk Soap

    A while before we started experimenting making our own soap I had the opportunity to try goat milk soap from a national brand.  I already knew the benefits of goat milk soap and already had high expectations, but I was completely blown away with my results.

    I wash my hands to an obsessive point… I live on a farm with two young children, and I have a mild case of OCD. My hands were always dry and cracked, and during the winter my hands would bleed… badly. I would go through a gross amount of lotion. I was miserable. It actually HURT to wash my hands and put lotion on. Washing my hands less was/is not an option… dealing with animals, diapers, cooking, etc… It is a necessary act many, many, many times a day. So I just dealt with the pain. Then I had the opportunity to use a bar of goat milk soap. Within a DAY my hands had healed. I’m not exaggerating… a DAY. No more cracks, no more dry skin, no more bleeding. I was completely hooked and knew I couldn’t go back to regular soap.

    Since we started making our own soap I have had no more issues with my skin, no matter how many times I wash my hands. Our soaps are all natural and our castile is sensitive enough to use on our toddler (who has very sensitive skin). It’s amazing having a safe, all natural product for our family to use. I am so proud of our soaps and I can’t wait for you all to try them.
