Learning About Soap

This past Friday, we joined several other local farmers at Horne Creek Farm in celebration of National Farm City Week, to do demonstrations for fourth graders from Rural Hall Elementary School.

We talked with the groups about soap making and gave each child a sample of our goat's milk soap to help them remember what they'd learned.
