Being a small and local business myself, I do my best to support other small businesses and local entreprenuers. And one that I always recommend — as I strongly believe in everything that she does — is our Roots and Shoots CSA farm owner Heidi Accola. In December the growing season in Wisconsin is obviously over but with gift giving time upon us I would like to share with you some other products that Heidi creates in her kitchen (and I photographed them in mine yesterday 🙂 ) Here they are – handmade soaps:

All Heidi’s soaps and balms feature organic herbs and additives and are gentle on the skin. They are also colored and scented with natural colorants and essential oils. Here are just a few of the yummy ingredients: pure olive oil, beeswax, goat’s milk, carrot juice, oats, egg yolks, cucumbers, pumpkin, sweet potato, lemon, mint, coffee, chocolate… All so good you could it it 🙂 And they smell delicious, too!

These soaps and balms would make a beautiful gift for someone who appreciates local, organic, sustainable products. If you are interested in any of the above give Heidi a call at 608-643-5273.
