Creek Farm creates and crafts a very special selection of all natural
homemade soaps. Each batch is carefully measured and watched over
with great care. Our homemade, kitchen brewed soaps are unlike any
soap sold commercially.
In commercially made soap the glycerin (a natural by-product of
the soap making process) is removed and this makes commercial soap
very drying. Alder Creek Farm soap is made from pure vegetable oils
in various combinations, which include olive, almond, coconut, palm,
soybean, and vitamin E oils. Other ingredients are beeswax, cocoa
butter, and spring water. Some additives to the recipes include
honey, herbs, spices, grains, and pure, and/or high quality essential
oils. The weight of each bar varies depending on the ingredients,
but usually each is approximately 100-114 grams when first cut and
a bit less when they are done curing.
Alder Creek Farm's natural homemade soaps contain no preservatives
and should be used within 12 months of purchase. For longer lasting
soaps, keep them exposed to air and let soap dry out between uses
in a well drained soap dish. Alder Creek Farm soap is biodegradable,
never tested on animals and uses minimal environmentally friendly
packaging.
