We use creamy milk in all our soaps. Our Jersey cow is called Honeysuckle. Unlike most dairies, we leave Honeysuckle with her calf to rear herself. This is called a calf-at-foot system. She produces far too much milk to feed just one calf so she’s feeding three at the moment.
The other two calves are from twins and the mums (they are beef cows and don’t produce as much milk as dairy cows) didn’t have enough milk to feed two calves, or the inclination! Honeysuckle naturally fed them without us putting any pressure on her. When we need milk for our coffee or for making soap, she lets us milk her using our portable milking machine.
If you would like to become a stockist, please send us an email at info@thesoapdairy.com
We look forward to working with you!
Handmade soaps, carefully crafted in the heart of the Lake District. Using locally sourced milk, we create nourishing natural soaps which are kind to both our bodies and our planet.
