White Pine Soapworks -
- a left-handed woman owned business -
I now live in mid-mitten Michigan! Still among the Eastern White pines, but now with added Red pines, Jack pines and other lovely Michigan flora - including porcupines!
It's a beautiful state I live in and I'm very happy to be in Michigan. I started moving the Indiana farm early 2019 and it took me until June 2019 to get the livestock, house and myself moved in. I bought 20 acres with a barn and wonderfully large house. The house is big enough to have the entire berm basement made into my weaving, sewing and soaping studio!
Feast of the Hunter's Moon 2009 - IT WAS COLD!!! |

All's quiet and cold on the first 'bend' of the creek.
SOAP MAKING:
I've been making and selling soap since 1978 - 42 years! My soaps are lard-based with some olive oil, free-range whole eggs (for lather and richness) and fresh whole goats milk! Other soaps I make are: vegetarian (with homemade soymilk!), beer, pumpkin, pine tar, Vaseline, citronella and a hostess size soap - a smaller soap for wedding favors and other events.
Hostess soaps are custom made! These are usually 3/4" wide by 1 1/2" wide by 2 1/2" tall (or custom-sized-it's up to you!) bars. Please allow 4 weeks for making and curing. These bars can be made in a variety of scents - please ask!

I live on and work from 20 wooded acres in mid-mitten Michigan!
My animals (dairy goats, fiber sheep, horse, mule, donkey, cats, dogs and chickens) are loving it our new home. |
