PJ is a homeschooling mom of 8 who lives a simple life on several acres of land where they keep gardens and dairy goats. Each family member is involved in making goat's milk soap (Well, except the baby.) Everyone has a job to do from milking the herd of Alpine goats, to mixing ingredients, making the soap, cutting them into thick, chunky bars, and stacking them to cure. You can read about them HERE and HERE.
They sell thick (6 oz.!) bars of their soap in a ton of different fragrances like coconut (my favorite smell on earth!), black raspberry, clean cotton, Fiji Island (YUM!), lavender, oatmeal milk & honey, and many, many more! As PJ says, "when people come to visit us, I can't guarantee my house will be clean, but I know it will smell good!" I can imagine how yummy her house smells because my house smelled great just from one bar of soap!
They have a soap for everyone, including those who want an organic castile soap, unscented soaps, and even loofah soaps!
I'd never used any kind of goat's milk soap before and I was surprised at how much the bar lathered. I don't know why, but I didn't really think it would. It's also surprisingly moisturizing! My skin gets so dry in the winter, but I could tell a difference after using this soap for a week. It's really creamy. Check them out HERE!
PJ is giving away 1 bar of her homemade goat's milk soap (winner's choice) to 3 lucky winners (open to residents of U.S. and Canada). Leave me a comment here and I'll choose 3 winners on Friday, Feb. 27!
Also, between now and March 10, when you place an order, get a FREE bar of soap (your choice)! Just mention my blog in the special instructions section of the order form! How cool is that?

Wow I have never heard of goats milk soap but it sounds like it would be awesome. Especially for my son who gets a rash if he even looks at most soaps. Having something homemade & organic might just be the best thing for him and all of his numerous rashes.
My husband always knows to bring me home soaps as gifts from his worldly travels. I'd LOVE to win some soap!
I'd love to try something new!
Cool! I'm interested!
those sound great!
Hey I am willing to try anything once...and my kids have excema so we will see if they can use it too....
Coconut, yum, also my favorite along with vanilla sugar. I also have the dry skin thing going on so thanks for a chance to win and try something new. I read your blog everyday even tho my kids are all grown and gone. I can still remember.....

Some friends of mine asked us to take care of their goats for a week while they went to family camp. The horrible creatures jumped on my car and relieved themselves. They also got into the neighbor's yard and the police were called. Needless to say, I do not like goats. Soap maybe, but goats? I do not like them!!!
I'd love to try some goat milk soap!
God knows we all need extra soap when we have kids around. Hope I win. Thanks.

I could use some nice smelling soap. Or should I say soap that doesn't make me smell like my kids :)
Goat's milk soap, huh? I'd like to try that.
Would love to try this, my skin gets extremely dry too. Also, both of my daughters have very bad eczema and I haven't found anything that really works well for them, maybe this would help them.
I've never tried Goat Milk Soap either - but I know anything that smells like Coconut must be good!! It's like lying on the beach in the sunshine, with coconut tanning oil on - yum :)
Homemade soaps are the best for problem skin. I wanna win!!!

I must be living in a cave, having never heard of goat-milk soaps before :-) Would LOVE to try it out.
I would like to try out some of her soap.
Oh, wow! If I don't win this, I'll probably order a few bars anyway. I'm getting to that age where I should really try and take better care of my skin. Plus, I feel the need to smell like lemons and roses! ^_~
I would love some goats milk soap!
Oh, my dry skin in winter drives me nuts! Maybe this will do the trick! Thanks!
I *LOVE* real homemade soap. It's much gentler on my dry skin and (somehow) also does a great job on my hubby's oily skin.
Wow... already 276 comments... oh well, can't hurt to try, right?
I think I'd roll in goat poop if ya told me it would help my dry skin! lol Ok, well, maybe not. I'd love to try this soap though.
I always love seeing these families succeede with their homemade products, and then I have to laugh. My mother has all of these same hairbrained ideas....at lease they're hairbrained for her because history has shown that she has a hard time following through with these cool ways to make some extra money. Her latest one is sheeps wool. Great idea, right? Spinning it into yarn and selling it.....So she buys three of this kind of small breed of sheep (can't remember what kind they are but they're small, and expensive), and a pure bred shepard dog to gaurd them from the cyotes (South Central Nebraska), also quite expensive.....needless to say, the sheep have been sheared several times, but the wool is still sitting in the barn, waiting to be washed, and spun.....
Long story short, I'd love to try some of the goats milk soap, and I'll make sure to let my mom know how wonderful it is!!
Oh, I so want some goat soap to lather up my dirty little children! I love goat some but unfortunately am too cheap to buy it usually.....
Ooo, oooo, sounds like awesome stuff! count me in!

Hahahaha. I seriously thought that your Ash Wednesday post said, "And I still have a giveaway for Goat's Milk SOUP..." I was like, "Wait, what?" Imagine my confusion when I saw that delicious-looking bar of soap on your review blog! Man, I'm losing it. Maybe a new bar of soap will help. :)
I'd love to win this for my sensitive skin family...it sounds great!!
I love goats, I love milk and I love soap - it's a win-win-win!
OOOO! I hope it's me! I'm allergic to so many things that I try to use natural & organic whenever possible. Lord knows, my skin needs some help.

Ugh -- hope I'm not too late. It's been a rough week. I've seen this site before, and I'm so impressed. I'd love me some of this soap! :)
Ive seen some similar soap at a high priced store Ive only wondered around in. I so can't afford anything in that store. BUT if goat soap made me glow like you or helped me to ride over all lifes little bumps I'm so in. I Need to check out the website of the soap makers.
This looks really awesome.
