  • Mother’s Day Giveaway!

    Mother’s day is this Sunday and in honor of this very important holiday we are doing a Mother’s Day “Spa Package” giveaway! Moms are some of the hardest working people in the world and we want to give one lucky momma out there a way to pamper herself.

    Mothers day giveaway from the Freckled Farm Soap Company

    This is a rare treat for those of you who are not able to come out and see us in person at the farmers markets or craft shows, because our bath teas and scrubs are not currently available on our website!

    Bath Teas

    Bath Tea from The Freckled Farm Soap Company

    Bath teas are a wonderful way to pamper yourself without making a mess of your bath. Each tea bag is stuffed with lovely things like flower petals, oatmeal, epsom salt, and essential oils. Place the bag under the running water of your bath and enjoy the wonderful benefits of these ingredients. If you are looking for a treat cut the bag open and pour the contents directly in the water and enjoy a bath surrounded with flowers and more.

    It’s that time of year! Time to shed our winter skin and prepare for summer! Our wonderful scrubs exfoliate and moisturize. Our salt scrubs, called scrub and soaks, give you the option to apply them directly to your skin or to spoon several tablespoons into the running water of your bath and enjoy a relaxing soak.

  • What’s up Wednesday – 4/30

    We have a BIG weekend ahead of us! If you follow our blog you know that the My Manakin Farmers Market opens this weekend. We are so excited to be a part of this market and look forward to starting the routine of having 2 markets a week! On top of that we have 3… Yes THREE… products debuting this week. Tomorrow our May soap will debut and on Saturday we will be debuting our scrubs and bath teas to our market customers! The scrubs and bath teas will then be available on the website next weekend. There is so much to look forward to!

    The rain from the last few days has turned the farm into a giant pond. I am going to have to swim to the barn for farm chores tonight. While I normally don’t mind the rain I’m looking forward to a dry weekend.

    Finally, this up coming Monday starts the fencing extravaganza! Kevin is taking the week off of work so we can fence off the buck pasture as well as a new pasture for the girls. I know the girls are going to be so excited to get ahold off all those brambles that will be in the new pasture.

  • What’s up Wednesday – 4/23

    Another busy, productive week on the farm! This past weekend we finally found time to build the buck house. Bad weather and incredibly busy schedules had forced us to put off that project a lot longer than we had originally planned. It came together nicely and will make a good home for our boys. Now we just need to paint it, put up the boys’ bed, hang the hay feeder, and fence. We should be picking up our buck in the next few weeks, so hopefully it will come together before then.

    We had a pretty unpleasant experience this weekend… While doing farm chores on Saturday we found a snake in the hay. At this point we don’t know if it was a baby black snake or baby copperhead. Our instincts said copperhead so we killed it and threw it far away in the woods. I would have never killed a black snake, but any copperhead needs to be eliminated! The babies are especially scary. After the fact we were looking at pictures of both baby black snakes and baby copperheads and they look quite similar. Either way a snake is a sign of mice and you do NOT want mice in your hay. So our “we think we might need to get a barn cat soon” turned to “we need to get a barn cat now!” We went to our friend Donna’s farm (Money Pitt Acres) to pick out one of the cats she was trying to rehome. We brought him home, set him up in a kennel on the porch and fed him. We were instructed to leave him in a kennel for a few days so he was able to learn that this was his new home. Unfortunately, yesterday, when Kevin was cleaning out the kennel the cat got out and ran away and we haven’t seen him since. We are all very upset about it and have tuna sitting on the porch hoping he will come back… which I sure will attract more than just our cat, but it’s worth the risk.

    We are still working on the new scrubs and bath teas! We are hoping to debut them at the opening of My Manakin Market on May 3rd. We have gotten the thumbs up from our testers and now it just requires us to get labels together. We are so excited about offering these awesome new products! We are also only a week away from debuting our May goat milk soap! Check back to see what it is.
