Welcome to the home of Grace and Glory Gardens Products!

Thank you for coming to visit us. We are Taeler, Jared and Caleb, and this is our latest project. We started this store of sorts in an effort to raise some money to invest in our beekeeping business. We have each received our first hive of bees, but quickly learned that there is additional equipment and supplies that we will need to become good beekeepers. We also feel very strongly that we should always do whatever we can to earn our own money. This project is part to fund our business, part training wheels for when we are older and conducting business on a larger scale, and part (deep sigh) school.

If you see something that you're interested in please email us for ordering details. As time goes on we will be adding many more products so stop by often!

Two new soaps!

I apologize for not having a picture to put up yet. We've been busy in the bee yard and the garden and still schooling too. Anyway.... we have two great new soaps to offer!!

Our first one is our new favorite Dry skin relief soap. Momma came up with a great recipe that we've gotten wonderful reports on from our testers! She infused pure aloe vera juice with chickweed, plantain, red clover, hyssop, chamomile, and green tea to get the healing benefits of those herbs and used only pure peanut oil, olive oil, coconut oil and excellent quality soybean oil to get a creamy smooth lather. Then to make it even more smoothing and soothing to rough, dry, itchy or irritated skin Momma decided that we should add some honey, milk, oats, and beeswax for added healing power! It has a very earthy scent due to the herb content, we did add essential oils of lavendar (for it's healing power and scent) and just a smidge of tea tree oil, maybe in the future we will add rose for it's soothing abilities too but right now we just didn't have it to add. This soap is loaded with good for ya stuff and it is truly the most awesome soap creation we've had yet! We tried to decide on the price and even though this soap is so full of extra goodies we've decided that for now we won't price it any higher........ so you can get the most healing, comforting super suds we can offer (so far) for the same price as the rest of our soaps, that's $3.00 per 4-5 oz bar + shipping.

We also made another great new soap. Our purpose in creating this recipe was two fold. Momma wanted a soap that would strip the oils from poison ivy and poison oak off of Daddy's skin without taking the healthy natural oils too. Then with 2 teenagers in the house Momma was hoping to get a recipe that would help with oily skin and acne. Let me tell ya, this soap is ugly but boy does it work!! Momma did a lot of reading to find out which oils to use that would strip off the dirt and bad stuff while leaving the skins own natural and healthy fats that help it heal and protect it. We decided to use a pure aloe vera juice infused with red clover, hyssop, chickweed, plantain, green tea, and cucumber. The only oils in this soap are coconut and peanut with just a but of olive oil so this is a very very soft soap. For a little scrubbing boost we put in a bit of cornmeal and dried cucumber peel. We also used lavendar oil, tea tree oil and lemongrass oil in this soap because they are very healing and good for your skin. Because of silly stuff like lawsuits and FDA policies we can't make any kind of medicinal claims about our soap but I can say that even though one of our favorite things to do is run around in the woods and stuff none of us have gotten poison ivy so far this summer which is really really rare. This soap will cost the same as our other soaps for now $3.00 per 4-5 oz bar+ shipping.
