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!
Good morning Karen, I just wanted to let you know, I received my first order yesterday, and I am so excited! I knit professionally, and have a problem with cracking fingers. I used your knitting salve last night, and I love the way my hands feel. I also love the scent (patchouli ). My daughter has eczema, and is also a diabetic, so I just ordered the sensitive skin sampler. I am also a knitting teacher, and I plan on spreading the word to my students. Thanks for the wonderful products! Sincerely,
