Local Production:  Our research indicates that many personal care products are made overseas, in a variety of countries.  Proud to be MADE IN THE U.S.A, our soaps, lotions and instant hand cleansers are made right here in Northern California using traditional, time tested recipes - no shortcuts, no overseas production. The benefits of local production include reduced carbon footprint, procuring local ingredients, hiring local people – enhancing the local economy, and employing family businesses like our own, whenever possible.
