Join a CSA
The idea of a CSA is that of a community pledging support to a farm, so that the risk of production is shared among the community and the community has either a spiritual or material connection to the farm. Fortunately, soap production is relatively low risk, but what makes a CSA different from individually placing orders is that you commit to a length of time to receive the good, you pay upfront for that length of time, and you do not choose exactly what you receive in your share (in this case with the exception of lifestyle requirements such as vegan, vegetarian, allergies to certain herbs or essential oils, etc). Everything on the farm is grown with organic and regenerative practices! As many soap materials as possible are sourced locally (tallow, goat's milk, etc.)
This CSA is soap based, with a full seasonal share of 9 bars at $85 (wholesale price!). You can pay through the website for your share after signing up, through Zelle at saboonmaazeh@gmail.com, or with Venmo, cash, or check (e-mail me please and indicate in the comments section of the sign-up form).

A seasonal share may include a solid dish soap, a shampoo bar, a medicinal salve, a facial cleansing bar, and a plethora of different body bars (tallow, goats milk, olive oil, olive oil and laurel soaps, and many of other types of plant based bars). You can refer to the CSA collection page to see the different types and you can also choose on the sign up form which types of soap you prefer.
-
Absolutely! Select your desired soap types in the sign up form. Most share soaps are body bars, but if you’d like more or less of a certain type (ie charcoal, dish soap), feel free to let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate you.
-
You always have the option to add on more soap or something else from my shop to your share--you can write a note that you'd like to pick up everything together and choose the same pick up option at checkout.
