    I cancelled my order with WSP - never again

    I have been having problems too. Seems like everytime I go to order things are out of stock and won't be in for a month, and it takes forever to ship.

    Affordable product liability insurance - does it exist?

    RLI also told me they couldn't insure because we use milk from our own animals. I thought that was ridiculous. I eventually sucked it up and went with the soapmakers guild, it was the cheapest I could find that would actually insure me.

    Another how much soap to take thread...

    Well I was unsure how much to take because at most local farmers markets I don't focus on just soaps, I mainly focus on produce because unlike my soaps, I can't take a bunch of tomatoes home and sell them later, so my soaps are always a smaller part of my booth. I am trying to branch into some...

    I get flustered in public. =(

    My big problem is I am extremely anti-social. I could be a hermit up in the mountains somewhere and be happy. I am not outgoing at all and get shy and uncomfortable around strangers. I have totally been there with a person asking you a question and being too flustered to answer even though it's...

    Wood in Soap

    Can any tell me how to make a super creative soap display without wood.

    walmart has wooden crates you can easily stack on top of each other for a tower effect, hint on those- buy them in the craft section they are a couple $$ cheaper than the ones in the home decor section and are basically the same. I have also seen some nice displays using cake stands, and dining...

    What do you sell Body Butters for?

    I sell mine for - 2 ounces $5 or 3/ $13. I make an emulsified goat milk body butter though, not just oils and butters so I am sure the cost is diffrent.

    Farmers market woes!!!!

    I probably won't be very liked after this one but... I like farmers markets that have those rules about them. I sell my soap as a side with other farm products, veggies,fruit,jams, jellies, eggs ect. Since selling raw milk is illegal in most places it is a way most dairy goat producers around...

    Goat Milk Lotions ?

    I make goat milk lotions, I was taught not to go over 10% with your milk. I keep mine at 9%. Do send out for testing, I sent mine to the place listed above and would recommend it.

    Business Name

    I use my farm name for bath & body products as well. I think it helps folks blend bath & body products with produce, poultry and other farm items we sell.
