Welcome to Greenthoughts Garden! I believe that the freshness and potency of the herbs in my products sets them apart from other companies. The products I offer are lovingly crafted in small batches from the hand-raised herbs that I raise, process and store myself, ensuring their potency. I harvest a fresh supply every year, dry them quickly in a controlled environment, and store them whole in glass containers which helps to preserve their medicinal qualities. I never use artificial dye, fragrances or additives that can irritate skin or contaminate our water supply. Truly natural handcrafted soaps and skin care products are safer and superior products for us, our families and the environment!

About Our Soaps:

I make all my soaps from wholesome raw ingredients that are nourishing to skin~ a blend of olive, soy & coconut oils, cocoa butter, local raw beeswax, pure essential oils & my own hand~raised or ethically wildcrafted herbs. This base is simple, effective & has a long shelf life. I use the cold~process method of making soap, so I can add herbs or my herbal infused oils at each step of the process. I weigh each ingredient carefully, making sure to have more oils than lye, so each batch is "superfatted", meaning it is a mild soap that can soften the skin by retaining internal moisture. They also contain glycerin, which is naturally produced during the soapmaking process. It acts as a humectant which attracts moisture, also helping to keep your skin soft.

Your skin absorbs everything you put on it. Soap is something we use every single day, usually more than once. Make sure what your body absorbs is going to do it some good! That is why I enjoy the added benefits of the herbs & essential oils in my soaps, balms & oils, letting their subtle yet positive energies work their magic. What a wonderful and easy way to incorporate herbs into your daily life!
