This year has been a year of great changes. The biggest change being selling off my sweet herd of Nigerian Dwarf goats. That, in itself, was a difficult but necessary change for me. As much as I loved those little goats, the smaller quantity of milk and having to care for a greater number of animals caused me to finally make the jump to a standard breed. I ended up choosing purebred French Alpines. I am so happy that I made the switch! French Alpines are so sweet, friendly and quiet. These goats fit into our relaxed lifestyle perfectly.
I have just been so impressed with this breed. They are very docile and gentle. I am looking forward to the increased milk supply too. Living through the Covid pandemic has forced me to finally make time for the personal hobbies that I wanted in my life. I am looking forward to making cheese this upcoming year.

I have definitely mastered the skill of soap making. I really enjoy making trays of soap each week. I love creating soap recipes and working on new techniques. I really appreciate everyone who has purchased my soap. I try my best to use local ingredients whenever possible. I'm trying to keep all of our soap themed with Oregon scents. We love living in this state!
Our two Signature soaps, Hazelnut Honey soap and Myrtlewood soap will be available year round. Each season we will also have a specialty soap that showcases that season in Oregon. I am so excited about this endeavor.
