Lavender & Lemon Creme is fresh on the shelves, re

Lavender & Lemon Creme is fresh on the shelves, ready for cooler fall weather! This is a silky whipped body butter made with shea and cocoa butters, local grapeseed oil, and a vibrant infusion of organic lemon peels and lavender from @auroralavenderfarm. Body cremes are a seasonal favorite available from now until spring.
🍇 Quick note for fans who are coming to town this weekend even though the Naples Grape Festival was canceled: order online tonight, choose the local pick up option, and pick up your order at our workshop when you come to get your grape pies! We miss you all so much this year. We hope you'll still get a chance to visit Naples this fall and enjoy the valley: amazing restaurants, shops full of work by local artisans, and inspiring natural beauty. 💜

2020 Naples Grape Scrub is ready! Grape pie season

2020 Naples Grape Scrub is ready! Grape pie season is well underway here in Naples, and the air around our shop currently smells like autumn in the Finger Lakes: grape pie, pumpkin harvest processing, and woodsmoke from a neighbor's bonfire. This gritty scrub is made with finely ground grape seeds from our dear friends (and grape pie contest champions) at Jeni's Pies, and naturally scented with a distillate of Concords and wild grapes. We called it a foot scrub, but Naples Grape is perfect for garden hands, too. Happy Fall, all!🍇

Gorgeous sweet spent grains headed into infusion pots. This batch smells like roasted barley and oats, dark chocolate, and toast. 😍 I'm feeling incredibly lucky to mix with these amazing ingredients, and grateful to work with several super talented brewers and distillers! Local collaborations are everything, especially this year.

Reclaimed wood rainbow soap decks are back in stoc

Reclaimed wood rainbow soap decks are back in stock! Which one is your favorite? These are heavier duty than the first iteration, and still just as lovely and sustainably made from a variety of reclaimed woods.
•
The best way to get the most out of your bar soap is to use a soap deck or raised ridge soap dish: the bar drip-dries between uses rather than dissolving in a puddle of water, which also prevents soap scum from forming on your sink and counter.
•
Pair with our bare soap and shampoo bars for zero waste hand wash, body wash, and shampoo.

To close this Labor Day, we honor Lucy Parsons: Ch

To close this Labor Day, we honor Lucy Parsons: Chicago labor organizer and one of the pioneers of intersectional activism. Parsons played a significant role in the normalization of the eight hour workday, organizing labor strikes that led to the first May Day in 1886, publication of numerous radical newspapers, and the formation of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU) and the Industrial Workers of the World (the IWW). Despite significant opposition, Parsons remained dedicated to her vision of equal rights and, eventually, the abolition of waged work in favor of complete worker ownership of the products of labor.
•
Virtually all of us benefit from the hard-won workplace protections and rights afforded by progressive activists and their bold, direct actions. The parallels with current civil rights movements are undeniable, and it is impossible to champion or benefit from one without acknowledging and supporting the other. Like Lucy Parsons and the early labor movement, present civil rights groups all work to create a more equitable society. We humbly honor Lucy by standing with both BLM and pro-immigration reform organizations. We hope you'll consider joining us.

Preview! Ginship soap, a collaboration with @holle

Preview! Ginship soap, a collaboration with @hollerhorndistilling. The goal was barnwood and waves in smoky tones with a scent to complement the (delicious) coriander-forward spirit. 😍 More than 11 botanical infusions went into this herbal-citrus scent including NY-grown spent barley, herbs, flowers, and spices. The colorants were made from our own hardwood carbon and clays. Ginship soap will be available online and at Hollerhorn this October. 🍸

Quick process peek at something in the works! These steel gray and ebony tones were made with our own hardwood carbon (activated charcoal) and a few different clays.

We have some really fun collaborations coming this fall! I know it feels like a whole lot of hurry-up-and-wait around here these days, but trust it will be worth it. 😍 Happy Friday to you!
