We are delighted to partner with our local friends at Wolds Barn in Duggleby to bring you this fascinating and exclusive goats milk soap-making workshop, incorporating the milk from their beautiful goats. We have been working with Sam and her family for several years and are thrilled that she and her beautiful goats have agreed to participate in the workshop.
Join us and our friends from Wolds Barn, in our Malton, Navigation Wharf workshop (see below for google maps link) for a glorious, relaxing time meeting and learning about the goats and making therapeutic goats milk soap, renowned for its skincare benefits and its soothing effects for those with eczema and other dry, sore skin conditions.
Learn the special techniques needed to create goats milK soaps and make six bars of your own goats milk soap to take home and enjoy.
We have had outstanding feedback from past participants on our goats milk soap-making workshops and are delighted to host these new variant of our extremely popular soap-making workshops. Due to the popularity of these workshops, early booking is recommended.
In our spacious, premises in Navigation Wharf, Yorkersgate, next to the Talbot Hotel, Malton, we are very happy to be able to host up to ten participants, to make six, lovely bars of palm oil free soap, each, bearing your own signature fragrance, made from a blend of essential oils.
You will make your palm oil free goats milk soap from vegetable oils and waxes using the cold process soap-making method and raw, unpasteurised goats milk. No melt-and-pour synthetic soap bases or UHT milk/milk powder here!
