We have goats so surely we make goat milk soap, right? While Anna, Quinn, and Amanda have made soap a few times, making soap and selling it at a farmer’s market or online isn’t our passion. Especially when there are so many others out there that do it in higher volume and quality. One of those soap producers is Sparrow Soaps.

Michelle Lyon and Danielle Payne own Sparrow Soaps and have used Michelle’s herd of Nigerian Dwarf goats to supply the milk used in their soap. Unfortunately, Michelle has been facing some substantial health issues over the past year and caring for the goats has become too much for her current situation. Anna and I have been following Michelle’s posts about her health and knew things weren’t going well. When we heard she was looking for places for her goats to live, we reached out to Michelle and Danielle with an idea that turned out to solve their problem.

We decided to establish a goat milk herd share at Sawyer Family Farm and through that relationship, Sparrow Soaps will be able to keep making their products! This new relationship allowed Michelle to sell her remaining goats but continue to have the business she loves and is passionate about. We are excited to be able to help them continue their journey! Check out their website to get some great personal care products.
