Our little farm is located in the picturesque countryside of Tioga County, Pennsylvania, not far from the PA Grand Canyon. Due to our elevation and mountain climate, we enjoy cool summers and snowy winters, ideal for year round outdoor activities from gardening, backpacking and picnics to hunting, snowmobiling, and sledding.

We purchased our first dairy goats during the summer of 2006 and began making soap that fall. Our dairy goats are well-loved and cared for, and they produce plenty of rich, sweet milk for us in return. Over the years we have shared thousands of bars of wonderfully nourishing goat milk soap with customers all over the country; some of our soaps traveling as far as  Europe and the Ukraine! We love hearing how much our customers love our soap and how it has helped their skin problems and made their skin soft and smooth.

East Point Farm Goat Milk Soap

Why is goat milk soap better than commercial soap?
In most commercial soapmaking processes, the soap is the byproduct of glycerin production. Glycerin, which is the result of the chemical reaction that produces soap, is much more valuable than the soap itself. So commercial producers remove the glycerin by cooking the soap to force the glycerin formation to occur quickly, so they can harvest it from the soap vat and sell it for a multitude of commercial uses.
Commercial soaps with the glycerin removed have two main faults:
1)Soap devoid of glycerin can dry your skin, leaving it feeling tight and uncomfortable; and
2) Cooking the soap destroys the delicate vitamins and healing properties of the original ingredients.

Our specialized process, known as cold-process soapmaking, does not require cooking.  Soapmaking at lower temperatures retains all the goodness of our specially selected ingredients, and our soap retains 100% of its natural glycerin.
 
Healthy Ingredients

We use goat milk, which contains an average of 4% butterfat, 3% protein, vitamins A, B, and D, and medically significant medium-chain fatty acids. Research has indicated that the constituents of goat milk are capable of rebuilding collagen in your skin, making it a natural wrinkle reducer.  Goat milk has shown to be cell reconstructive in the care of dry skin, damaged skin, and elderly skin. Goat-milk baths are one of the oldest recorded beauty treatments.

Supplemental Oils added for their special properties include:
Olive and avacado oils, both fine skin softeners; coconut and castor oils, to create a great lather;  and pure fresh lard and canola oil for superior conditioning.

Other ingredients may include honey, finely ground oats or lavender buds, aloe or rose hips, natural pigments, and of course quality essential or fragrance oils.
