Bio
We are a small, local family run business in the Peace Region of Alberta. You may have previously known us as Harmony’s Way Farm. The farm name has changed, but the products you have come to know remain the same.
As a family we operate a “Beyond Organic” small diversified family farm. We have been offering organically grown beef, lamb, pork and eggs to the people of Grande Prairie, AB for many years. We have previously sold through the Grande Prairie Farmers’ Market and Homesteader Health Food Stores. One and a half years ago we made the decision as a family to shift our marketing focus away from Farmers’ Markets to selling only from farm-gate. You may be asking yourself, “Do I have to come to the farm to make a purchase?” Although you are more than welcome to come to the farm, you do not have to make the trip out. Delivery can be arranged to Grande Prairie. This change has freed us up to focus on the care of our livestock in order to supply you with the highest quality products for your family.
We are in the process of developing a farm-share model. This would be a CSA (community supported agriculture) type of arrangement. At the beginning of the year we would offer shares for the year. This share would include a weekly delivery of products that have been raised on the farm. If you would be interested in this concept email us and we will put you on our email list.
If you would like more information on any of these products please contact us and we will gladly answer any of your questions. Check out our website www.snowywillowfarm.wordpress.com. We will be posting updates on a regular basis.
Gentle Jersey Milk Soaps are a new trail we will be meandering down. Here on the farm we have been using handcrafted soaps for many years. The last few years these soaps have been made by our family. Let me introduce our new family of milk-base, handcrafted bar soaps to you. A number of our soaps will also be made without the milk. You will be able to know the difference by the name. All milk-based soaps are branded with the name “Gentle Jersey Milk Soap” plus the name of the soap. The others will only have their name
You might possibly asking yourself “Why milk-based, handcrafted soap?”
First, our milk-based, handcrafted soaps contain no harsh chemicals, alcohol or petroleum products that tend to irritate and dehydrate your skin.
Next is glycerin. During the commercial soap making process glycerin is intentionally removed to be used in more profitable products. Handcrafter soaps retain their glycerin which provides deep moisturizing benefits for our skin.
Milk-based, handcrafted soaps offer even more benefits. Milk is rich in proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals. Milk brings with it the unique natural ability to moisturize and nourish our skin.
We use only the best oils that we can source. The essential oils are pure oils (mostly organic). We do NOT use any synthetic fragrance oils at all.
Here at Snowy Willow Farm we use only milk from our herd of Jersey and Jersey/Canadienne cross cows. Both of these breeds are known for their high milk fat and protein content milk. The cows are docile and content. They are not force fed to get the highest production they can give. We feed a grass-based diet with small portions of grain to maintain the quality of the milk.
To place an order you can contact us directly through sales@snowywillowfarm.com .
Delivery options will be discussed at time of ordering. We offer delivery to Grande Prairie, AB when we are in town or we can use Canada Post. Shipping fees will be calculated at time of ordering. We accept credit card payments through PayPal or cash on delivery.
