I was trying to send someone the link to my lavender choices from the Featured section at the top of my page, and I realized it was no longer there. Facebook is making changes again. 😕 The woodsy and spicy bars were gone too.
So I have had to add them all as regular posts, and will likely need to bump them to the top periodically so they don't get too buried.
Sorry for the flood of posts showing in your feeds.

WHOLESALE SOAP!
Made local in Nanaimo

💕Island Rain Natural Soap is 100% all natural soap made with the finest ingredients, including organically grown botanicals we grow ourselves on site.
For many like myself, real all natural soap is not a luxury, it is a necessity. At only $3.50 per bar before tax, this makes our luxury all natural soap, in more than 50 different choices..... affordable for all. 💕

WHOLESALE SOAP is freshly made when you order, and will need to dry for four weeks from the date it was made once you take it home. You will receive a couple of dry bars in your order to hold you, while the rest of your order finishes air drying.

All 50+ of our bars can be ordered at the wholesale price of $38. 50 ($43.12 including tax) for a half batch of 11 bars, or $77 ($86.24 including tax) for a full batch of 22 bars.

*For those who would like to order my soap without my logo stamped on it, an additional $11.00 plus tax will be charged per half batch of 11 bars.

For those ordering a half or full batch of freshly made soap and would like a mix...
This post is updated frequently as choices change. This is what is up on the drying racks at the moment that you can choose a couple of each from, if you would like a mixed wholesale order......
( If your favorites are not listed at the moment, order them anyways and I'll make them up for you😊👌)

Minty- Pink Grapefruit & Mint, West Coast Waves, Mojito Memories, Lavender Mint

Citrusy - Spring, Mojito Memories, Citrus Sunrise, Recovery Bar, Soothe Me,

Woodsy - Emerald Seas, Primeval, Private Stock, Cedar & Sage, West Coast Storm, Rosemary Sage.

Spicy- Irrisistable, Thieves & Citrus, Island Thieves, Pumpkin Spice, Liquorice Twist,

Lavender Floral - Winter Love, Lavender Rosemary Scrub, Pretty in Pink, Lavender Eucalyptus, Lavender Mint, Winter Rose,

Fragrance Free - Honey Oatmeal Moisture Bars, Goat's Milk, Simply Beautiful

Overwhelmed with too may choices? 😁

Then let's narrow it down to six. Citrusy, minty, woodsy, spicy, lavender floral or fragrance free. Just ask me for a mix of lavender, or maybe half woodsy, half spicy. You get the idea. You can work your way through a mix you know you will like and maybe find some new favorites that you can order by name next time.

To place an order just message me here or text me your order at 250-816-3849.

My luffas are in and growing by the day. 😍 They are a good six inches taller than last year at this point. Last year they did great and produced me a bunch of luffas, I'm hoping this year they will be even better!
The last two pictures are the luffa starts I'll be taking to the Island Roots Farmers' Market today 3-6 at Beban Park. These starts are grown from the seeds from the biggest of my luffas from last year, so they are proven winners for our area. They are hardened off and ready to plant. I have limited stock, so grab some today if you don't want to be disappointed. Starts are $5 each.

I had this pop up in my feed, and I had to share. 😁 This is so me... complete with spelling mistakes!
For all those wishing that today was Friday, it's looking like a beauty of a day, so take your coffee outside and enjoy!

🦋 Well wings of change are happening here again. 🦋

Meet Simon, my youngest grandson. 😊
Simon just recently turned one, which means his Mom now has to go back to work. As many of you with children know, it is extremely difficult to find daycare for this age group, and with today's economy, it is very expensive.
So Simon and I are hanging out full-time while Mom works. 😁💕

Because of this new change, I will not be at the Island Roots Farmers' Market for the next four weeks. Mom works a four days on two days off shift, so I will return on my next free Wednesday which is May 7th our last indoor Market.

When we move the Market back outdoors May 14th, I will rejoin the Market each week because then I can keep Simon right there with me while I unload and set up. With the indoor winter Market, I would have to leave him alone in the truck while I run in and out of the building packing in all my stuff. I'm not comfortable with that.

So for the rest of April I am still offering curbside pickup of orders from my home, but you won't find me at the Farmer's Market. 😊👌
Thank you all for your kind understanding. 💕
