Harvested from wild plum trees on our farm, this jam is delicious and quite tart! We puree and strain the plums to make a jam that is a thick but smooth texture, similar to apple butter, and sweeten it just enough to not pucker you up. The plums contain natural pectin, but we added a little Pomona's Natural Pectin to make sure it is a nice thick-set jam. This pectin activates with calcium rather than sugar, so we can use much less sugar than commercial jams (the acidity of the fruit is the active preservative in this case). We work hard to get all the pits out of the jam, but just a word of caution, there will probably be a piece here and there. We will continue refining our process for both efficiency and effectiveness!

Sugar Rush pepper Jelly-jam: This jelly-jam is made from the Sugar Rush peppers that grew in my backyard garden this year. I took out the seeds and ground all the peppers up until smooth in my food processor. Then added 1-1/2 cup organic Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother, 4 cups sugar and pectin to the mix. Processed it in water bath for 20 minutes. The pepper jelly is good with Cream cheese and crackers. The jar is a 4 ounce jelly jar. It would be a lively item to add to a charcuterie board for a church brunch or other public event. **************************************** No chemicals are used in my garden. Pretty much organic, but not certified. **************************************** NOTE: I have several different culinary herbs used for cooking and several different medicinal teas. I have a few home sewn POTHOLDERS, OVEN MITS, and TEA BAGS. I have added aprons and a tank shirt with fabric collage embellishment sewn onto the front of the tank as a decorative element. Happy cooking! Cheryls Neighborhood Garden

4 lamb chops in a package. This sheep was born and raised here at Solace Farm. We have Tunis sheep, a wonderful multipurpose breed (good fleece, meat, and milk sheep) little-known here in the US. We raise our sheep with rotational grazing, moving them every day most of the year, for both animal and pasture health. This enables us to avoid chemical wormers - we also don't use any antibiotics, or anything, really, besides grass, fresh water (rain or well), hay, and mineral/seaweed supplements.

Handmade lip balm, made with local beeswax (or candelilla wax for a vegan version), cocoa and shea butter, and castor and olive oils. Please choose a scent from the list below, if you don't I will choose for you :-) Beeswax gives this balm staying power, the butters are super-moisturizing, and castor oil is famed for being great for our skin, encouraging collagen and elastin production and helping penetrate and heal dry or damaged skin. It also adds a natural gloss and shine to this lip balm. If you have an allergy or sensitivity to any of these ingredients, just contact me for a custom-made lip balm, I can substitute any of the ingredients for you, and as mentioned, I can also make a vegan version with candelilla wax instead of the beeswax. I've been using my hand & body balm for years now and love it, and have always used it on my lips, but I had never poured lip tubes because I just hate the plastic! There's more plastic than product in those little tubes, and I just couldn't justify that – but then I found paper tubes!! They are the same size as the standard plastic tubes (both the .2 oz fill and the overall tube size), and simply push up from the bottom instead of the screw mechanism. The caps don't snap on quite as tightly as the plastic ones, but they usually fit on fairly snugly, I trade them around if one is loose until I find a good fit (and a customer has helpfully pointed out that a cap from a commercial lip tube will also work well). These tubes are entirely paperboard, with a waxed interior to prevent leaking, and I use paper labels, so they are entirely recyclable or compostable. I do pay a good bit more for these than the plastic tubes, but I really believe it's worth it. These are available in a large selection of fragrances as well as unscented and even custom blending, just send me a note with your request. These lip balms are scented with either essential oils or flavor oils (fragrance oils specifically for safe lip use), and I've added a very small amount of all-natural sweetener to enhance the fragrance. This sweetener is simply stevia and coconut oil, and I use just enough to give the scent a well-rounded aspect, similar to using salt in food – it just seems a little flat without it, but these are not candy-sweet, like many commercial lip balms. If you prefer a lip balm without sweetener, I can do that - but be aware that it may just seem a little "off" or flat in flavor/scent. Our senses of taste and smell are so intertwined, so much of the "scent" is actually the taste (the stevia), and without it the fragrance may not really "bloom" for you - but I'm happy to make that if you prefer. I do have a few flavors that are pre-sweetened with saccharin, and these will be clearly indicated in the selection drop-down box with “PSW”, and below in the individual descriptions. If possible, I use a natural essential oil, and second preference is an unsweetened flavor oil, so that I can add my own stevia sweetener, but some scents I can only find in pre-sweetened form. Current options are: Pure Essential Oils with a Touch of Stevia Sweetener: • Cedarwood & Bergamot – Woodsy and dark-citrus, these essential oils make a great lip balm for men • Citrus Blend - Grapefruit, Lime and Orange. I can customize which I use, just let me know. • Coffee Bean - Actual coffee EO, this is a light scent of true coffee - no vanilla, mocha, latte, etc. • Ginger Lime • Grapefruit • Lemon • Lime • Orange • Peppermint • Star Anise – This pure essential oil is classic black licorice, pure and simple. Essential Oil/Unsweetened Flavor Oil blend, with a Touch of Stevia Sweetener • Apple Sage - A blend of red & green apple flavors, with pure Dalmation Sage EO, this is my new favorite • Chocolate Mint – Chocolate flavor oil, with pure Peppermint essential oil, and a hint of stevia sweetener. This is a very light scent, no tingle/burning at all from the Peppermint, but the decadent fragrance comes through really nicely. If you'd prefer a stronger fragrance, message me for a custom blending. • Coconut Lime – Coconut flavor oil with pure essential oil of Lime for a tropical summery fragrance. • Mint Julep – Bourbon flavor oil, with pure Peppermint essential oil, a touch of unsweetened Honey flavor, and just enough stevia sweetener to round out the fragrance. This truly smells like the classic cocktail, I was impressed when I first tried the Bourbon oil, and is a great lip balm for the guys who don't want a typical “girly” lip balm. • Orange Vanilla - Vanilla flavor oil with real Orange EO, this is both warm and citrus, bright and mellow. Pre-Sweetened Flavor Oil with Saccharin • Root Beer – The classic lip balm, this truly smells just like root beer. Kids will love this one, as will anyone who grew up on this staple of the lip balm world. Stay tuned, I'm attempting to reformulate this one with essential oils for an all-natural root beer lip balm. • Dulce de Leche – This is the aroma of warm caramel, just delicious. • Mango And of course, I offer this lip balm in Unscented as well, either with or without sweetener. I also have this same balm available in a reusable, recyclable metal tin. It comes in 4 sizes, from a tiny pocket-size, all the way up to a 4 oz container, see my Body Balm listing for details.

Woodsy, herbal cedarwood and sage essential oils give this solid lotion a masculine fragrance. This all-natural balm is ultra-moisturizing with almond & olive oils and shea & cocoa butters, and always-local beeswax makes it last. This balm comes in a 1.5 oz metal tin with lid - please recycle it or return it to help keep my costs and material footprint (and therefore yours!) as low as possible. Why use a solid moisturizer? Solid lotion balm has no preservatives, unlike liquid lotions that require some kind of preservative to avoid harmful bacterial growth that can occur anytime water is added. Also, you get more for your money, since you’re not paying for all that water, preservatives, colors (even in white lotions often!), and unpronounceable, mystery ingredients. A solid lotion is also great for travel - it won’t leak and avoids the liquid restrictions for air travel. Lastly, it makes a great lip balm, for a fraction of the price of the tiny little tubes! If you’re interested in a moisturizer that’s even more sustainable, eco-friendly & bio-ethical, local, and hand-produced, check out our grassfed tallow balms and salves as well! Also, stop by our blog at SolaceFarmHomestead.com and browse the photo galleries to learn more about our farm, family, what we do, and how we do it here at Solace Farm.

If you’re curious about using grassfed tallow as a moisturizer, but are not sure about jumping in with my 90% tallow salve, this one is for you. It is 50% grassfed tallow hand-rendered from our Scottish Highland cattle, as well as my regular balm ingredients - olive and almond oils, shea and cocoa butters, and some beeswax to make it really last on your skin, even through moderate washing. I really love this balm for hands, feet, and baby bottoms, or anywhere else you want serious moisturizing - a little bit goes a long way, and it really lasts. The Peppermint $ Tea Tree in particular is great for healing, everything from diaper rash to mild skin irritations to eczema, according to some of my customers. Rather than listing a separate item for every available fragrance or essential oil blend, just choose from this list of currently available fragrances (EO denotes natural essential oils, otherwise it is a fragrance oil): Cedar & Sage EO Espresso Lavender-Vanilla EO Peppermint & Tea Tree EO Ginger, Lime & Lavender EO Tobacco & Bay Leaf Oatmeal, Milk & Honey Spiced Tobacco Lavender EO Grapefruit EO Rosemary & Bergamot EO

This is the simplest solid lotion I make, and in my opinion, the best. It is simply 90% our own grassfed Scottish Highland tallow, and 10% liquid shea oil. This is amazing stuff - much less greasy/oily-feeling than my regular Body Balm (which I still love!), it soaks right in and really moisturizes. Tallow is great for skin, and is local, sustainable, and much more eco-friendly and ethical than many oils that contribute to deforestation, labor exploitation, etc. We render this ourselves, from our Highland steers - we try to respect the sacrifice our beautiful heritage cattle have made to feed and aid us, and use all that we can from the animals. (We also tan the hides and clean the skulls and horns as striking wall decorations). I only use natural essential oils in these salves, an artificial chemical fragrance seems out of place in a minimalist, all-natural salve! Rather than maintaining a stock of these in multiple fragrances, I will make this to order, so choose the essential oil blend you would like from the list and include a note to the grower at checkout with your selection. If you’re not sure or aren’t picky, just tell me if it’s for a male or female recipient, I’ll choose something appropriate. Currently Available: Lavender Yling-Ylang & Lavender Ginger, Lime & Lavender Eucalyptus Mint Grapefruit Rosemary-Bergamot Cedar, Lavender & Frankincense Cedar & Sage These salves come in a 1.5 oz metal tin with a lid.
