As you may know, many of the farms that we have profiled on our blog sell many products, mostly organic food. A few of these farms also offer non-food products that could be used on a daily basis, such as lotions, soaps, candles, home/kitchen products and much more.
I decided to take a look at a few of these farms, and I was surprised to see what these places actually sell. River School Farm sells products for your skin, and Lavender Ridge Farm sells products ranging from skin products to home/kitchen products. And all of the products are organic so they will definitely be able to benefit you. I’ve chosen four products to talk about, as well as a few links to where you can find them on the farms’ respective websites.
