The Soap Shed makes 130 varieties of handmade soap including goat milk soap, lye soap, shea butter soap and castile olive oil soap. Our handmade soap is created from scratch from raw ingredients imported from around the world, and uniquely combined with recipes created by us.
The handmade soap tradition is still well known in the Appalachian region, with many families still sharing first-hand memories of family members making their own soap in this geographically isolated and financially poor region. Not surprisingly, we heard requests for old fashioned, handmade soap for several years before making it. Because locals and regional visitors recognized and valued handmade craft, our efforts to create handmade soap using vegetable oils, goat milk and shea butter were well received, and The Soap Shed has grown and prospered since 1998.
The Jock itch fungus only affects the top layer of skin, making it very possible to treat it using just a good, natural soap – like we just happen to have!
Thank you so much for your kind donation of Dirty Dawg soap to the Foothills Golden Retriever Rescue group. I can’t believe how good it is. I’m one of the foster moms trying to help these poor babies, which we’ve named The Bones Bunch. The 26 dogs we rescued this week were starved for seven weeks. Just trying to clean them up, and remove all their encrusted and knotted hair, added to their trauma. Your soap helped the tangles come right out and reduced the discomfort of grooming. And I can’t believe how much it reduced their skin and body odor. I have been using your dog soap every single day to wash the dogs I am fostering, for them AND for me. It doesn’t dry their skin out at all, and actually seems to moisturize their skin. Hot spots are healing, cracked skin is healing. I think even the dogs love the soap, they certainly seem to love their baths with it. I have been breeding Golden Retrievers for many years, and I have never used a product that works so well. PLEASE SEND MORE SOAP!
