Think of it as soap's overachieving cousin. Solid at room temperature, melts on contact with warm skin. More concentrated than lotion, less messy than oil. Della would call it 'fancy soap,' but she'd approve of how well it works on angry skin.

Depends on whether you're a 'little dab' person or a 'slather it on' person. Most people get 2-3 months from one bar. They're good for 24+ months stored properly (we keep ours in a cool bot walk-in that survived last March's ice storm).

Made BY people with diabetic skin, eczema, and psoriasis FOR people with the same. Lois is legally blind and has every skin condition in the book—if it works for her, it'll work for you. But everyone's different, so patch test if you're concerned.

$42-48 for Lavender Fields, depending on final packaging decisions. Yes, that's more than drugstore soap. It's also less than one La Mer moisturizer, and ours actually contains ingredients from animals you can meet.

Nationwide, yes. Internationally, not yet. Rural Illinois internet is barely functional—international shipping logistics might break us.

30-day money back guarantee. We'd rather have it back than have you unhappy. Though Billy might take it personally.

Starting Spring 2026, yes! Book through boneandbearfarms.com. Stay in our glamping tents, meet Billy and the gang, try farm-exclusive products. Fair warning: Billy will judge your character at the gate. Also, farm time is a real thing, come and see it for yourself!

We're vegetarians who let a goat run security. Testing on animals would be like experimenting on family members. No certification yet because paperwork costs more than our monthly feed bill, but come meet our spoiled herd and decide for yourself.

Ice storms knocked us out for a week last March. Our 15.84 kW solar array and Tesla Powerwalls will keep us running next winter.

We test everything ourselves daily. Della's rule: 'Do it right the first time, even when no one's watching.' Slight defects become farm-store exclusives and worker holiday gifts. Major mistakes feed the compost.

Every bar sold funds hours of work for local women, especially single mothers needing flexible schedules. We provide on-the-job training, career coaching, and accommodations for disabilities (Lois is legally blind, so accessibility isn't an afterthought). Some will stay, some will take these skills elsewhere. Both outcomes are victories.

Email us at howdy@boneandbearfarms.com. We're building slowly and intentionally. Warning: Billy conducts the first interview.

Because both are about the same thing: slowing down and taking care of yourself. Plus, glamping guests expect nice amenities, and we got tired of buying overpriced products that didn't work for Lois's skin.

Same family, same values, same solar panels. Gilded Goat products will be in every glamping tent. Think of it as one farm with two ways to experience it—through your skin or under the stars.

She'd probably say we're overcomplicating her simple soap recipe. Then she'd test every batch, suggest improvements, and remind us that shortcuts always show. She'd love the solar panels—waste not, want not—and she'd absolutely spoil Billy rotten.
