Our Story

 
We began making soap in 2011 for our own family. What started as a simple project soon became a hobby - the more we researched, the more it grew. Before long, we were selling in a few local stores.

In 2017, our daughter purchased a share of a salve business. By 2019, we bought the business and merged it with our soaps, creating what is now Green Forest Soaps & Salves.

In 2024 we began the process of regenerating our pastures back to grass, grazing dairy cows, and raising chickens. We also work with injured horses, helping them recover and heal. Our herbs and salves are safe for pets and horses.

We are a chemical-free farm, and our neighboring farm is chemical-free as well.

Our salves are made with fresh, live plants, giving you the highest quality, most effective product possible. All of our products are 100% natural. We grow most of our herbs right here on our farm, and we use only doTERRA essential oils.
