Jersey Bird Homestead

Fresh cuts

Hey everyone! Fall is in full swing on the farm. The goats are loving the cooler weather, and their winter cashmere is starting to come in.

Fresh from the soap studio

Here are a few recent projects coming out of the soap studio: Starry Night, Go Birds, and Pumpkin Sandalwood (Tallow).

Sneak peek: winter scents

Our winter scents will go into production soon. Here’s what’s coming:

  1. Peppermint essential oil
  2. Fresh Snow
  3. Peppermint Cocoa
  4. Orange and Clove

Local tallow and beeswax

Most of these will be made with local tallow and beeswax. I’m expecting more tallow from R.C Beef this week and can’t wait to continue the tallow line.

I’ve also decided to add BeeLocal beeswax to all batches from now on. I really think it adds even more longevity to the bars without any compromise to the recipe.
