We Welcome You!
Hello and welcome, from Wind Song Acres, makers of fine handcrafted soaps and more! We're glad you've found us!
Our History
We started to make soap for our family only, so we made the very best soap we could. As things got out of hand (in other words, we had more bars of soap than we could possibly use in our lifetime!), we began to sell our soaps... to rave reviews.
Though we began selling our soaps more and more often, we never changed those best-for-us recipes (as some might do to cut costs), and that has created a base of loyal Wind Song Acres customers -- customers who trust that our products will continue to be created with consistency and care. To this day, our recipes contain only quality ingredients, for the sake of our family AND yours!
Our Process
To ensure quality, our soaps are produced in small batches, right in our century old farmhouse. Our soaps are produced the old fashioned way, using what is called "Cold Process". We start with only the highest-quality ingredients -- high quality saponified olive, coconut, and palm kernel oils are the base for all our soap products. This process produces mild, long lasting soaps that are rich in glycerin and lather.
Each soap is sold as approximately a 4.0 oz. bar, but they are hand cut so many bars are actually closer 5oz. Look for products with a "Natural" label. These products contain only natural pigments and essential oils.
The Importance of Olive Oil and Glycerin
Our customers compliment us on how well our soaps lather and how long they last. But, they also understand the importance of olive oil. Some soapers use only a small percentage of olive oil in their recipes. We don't skimp and its goodness shows in our soaps.
Our end product is a long lasting bar of soap that retains its glycerin. Glycerin is important, because it is the actual ingredient that serves to moisturize your skin. Many commercially produced soaps have their glycerin “pulled off” to be used in other products... so, you are basically buying a bar of detergent. DETERGENT -- something that will actually DRY OUT your skin. Who needs THAT?
Our Philosophy
We are proud of the variety of soaps we offer. We produce quality soaps that we know our customers will love, for an affordable price -- and wouldn't have it any other way. With over 80 unique varieties of soap available, from our Floral line of soaps to our "Good For You" blends, we're sure to have a product that you'll just love. And be sure to check out our other categories of handcrafted products too - the same care we use for our soaps goes into those items as well!
For about the price of an expensive cup of java, you can have one of our soaps (which is certain to last a lot longer!). So browse around, place your order in our secure shopping area, and let Wind Song Acres be your very own soap makers today!
