We are CrAzY about what we do for a living. Apparently other people think we are crazy too! Over our corporate history we have had people talk about us (we hope in a nice way). A couple of magazines have actually thought we were good enough to grace their pages. Below are some articles from Good Housekeeping and from Southern Living that you might find informative. But please don’t pass judgment on us until you’ve had the pleasure of meeting us… we aren’t as “conservative” or as “boring” as the articles are!
Carol Crow, (my age is here – you have to read the real article to find out!),a horticulturist and landscape designer, never set out to add "soap maker" to her resume. It happened unexpectedly when, in 1998, a few clients gave her thank-you gifts of homegrown herbs and Crow used them to tryout a soap recipe that she'd seen online. Her batch yielded an astonishing 600 bars, which Crow gave to friends and family-and people started requesting more. "I even got a call from someone in Michigan who'd tried the soap at a friend's house when she was here in town," says Crow.
Imagine becoming the sudden owner of enough fresh herbs to overflow a 4- x 6-foot trailer. Unless you're Julia Child on overdrive, you'd probably cook with what you could and throwaway the rest. If you're Carol Crow, however, you bring out the biggest pot you own and scour the Internet for a basic recipe for making soap.
