One of the great joys of making natural products is handling and working with amazing raw materials. This is the pure and elemental part of the work that makes it grounding and exciting.

Life is still wild out there so we cannot let up on using hand sanitizer just yet.  Aloe and lavender will help protect your hands and the spray makes it so easy to sanitize phones, keys etc.
While not enough has changed we will take the little wins!  A year ago, we could not even source spray caps! We can finally find almost everything we need to make all our products, which is a huge relief. Hence the sale!

Lavender can always handle snow better than ice.
Snow is very interesting, it acts as an amazing insulator, even protecting plants from further inclement weather.
Ice on the other hand can split a plant in half and kill it. Lucky for us this ice had melted by afternoon.

Lest you thought farming, and the farm were always Instagram ready, here is the reminder that farming is messy. Drainage ditches need to get cleared out in the dead of winter. Ponds get filled with debris after heavy rains, wildlife poses a ton of interesting challenges and the mud there is just so much mud.
