Soap - so simple, yet so misunderstood. Have you ever pondered the ingredients contained in a typical bar of soap? Petroleum distillates, sulfates, and many other unpronounceable additives. How about your daily cleaning products used around the household? Take action and rediscover the roots of old-fashioned soapmaking and other household cleaning products by learning to make soap that good ol’ fashioned way. Learn how to make gentle, natural soaps, and explore the history and science of this cleanser using the same natural ingredients Grandma used, animal fat and lye. You'll leave with at least two varieties of handmade soap, information and resources, and plenty of experience to start making small steps for a safer and cleaner environment.
