SHEPHERD'S
HEART
Heavenly Body Care Products and Goat Milk Soap
Our beginning
Just
across the river and over the hill from Zederkamm Farm is another
Kinder goat breeder and dear friend, Celeste. The two of us
were searching for beauty products that we could trust not to
irritate sensitive skin, yet would be practical for use on skin
roughened by home and farm chores. A local craft shop offered
a soap making class, and we decided to sign up. We agreed that
it would be a great idea to practice our new-found skills by
making gifts for our families and friends. And what better new
way to use the very rich milk from our Kinder goats?
During
the time that we were eagerly experimenting, and our first soaps
were curing, more and more acquaintances kept asking us when
we would have some soap for sale. Sales had definitely not been
in our original plan, but there was so much interest and then
positive feedback from those who received our gifts, that we
decided it might be fun to give marketing a try - and so Shepherd's
Heart was born.
There
is something very satisfying about creating a beautiful and
useful product from scratch, and taking it through to the final
packaging and labeling. It is a special delight having good
reports coming back from our satisfied consumers.
Our goal
We
strive to make a product that we are pleased to use, and that
we can be satisfied will be a pleasure for others to use as
well. Your good health is a primary concern, so we use fine
quality natural ingredients, and colors and scents are all cosmetic
grade or better. Occasionally there will be a chemically sensitive
individual who will react to certain ingredients, natural or
not, particularly fragrances, so if you fall into that category
it is always wise to use a standard patch test on your forearm
to check for any adverse reactions. All of our products have
been successfully tested on ourselves (Celeste is one of those
super-sensitive people) and on friends and family. For your
convenience and safety, all ingredients are listed on the labels
for each product, and on our web site you will see the complete
listing of ingredients for each product as well.
Our web
site
Within
this web site you will be able to peruse the fruits of our labors
- a refreshing treat to the skin, and we hope, to the eye as
well. Give our products a try, and then when you find yourself
'hooked' on natural, come back and shop for gifts for your friends
and family too.
