Slow Farming Tallow Soap - Handmade | West Country Product | Small Batch
Slow Farming Tallow Soap - Handmade | West Country Product | Small Batch
This soap helps us in our quest to truly make use of all parts of an animal, making sure nothing is wasted. Tallow is already used across the beauty industry from lipstick to big brand soap (look for 'sodium tallowate'). It's skin loving - The fatty acids in tallow are similar in molecular structure and composition to those found in the layers of our skin and, as a result, incredibly moisturising.Â
Our soap is made from a combination of pork fat from our own animals mixed with essential oils. We have two distinct scents:
- Somerset hedgerow (80g), made with British cold pressed rapeseed oil which has been steeped with wild, foraged rosehips, an elderberry infusion and lemon verbena essential oil.Â
- Lemon and seaweed (80g), made with seaweed collected on the West Country coast and lemon essential oil.

Why buy from us
Ethically
All our products are beautifully crafted from natural and sustainable materials. Our meat and eggs come from animals and land tended with careful respect.
Environmentally
We wish we could get all our products to you packaging-free. However, in the interests of preserving and protecting them, we have to wrap them. We have spent a lot of time, over a lot of coffee, carefully selecting the best options to get our products to you in perfect condition with the least amount of packaging.
Regeneratively
The benefits of regenerative farming are clear. The damage caused by climate change is reversed, creating resilient ecosystems by rebuilding soil organic matter and restoring degraded soil biodiversity – resulting in both carbon drawdown and improving the water cycle.
