The journey to Shepherd's Harvest began several years ago when I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. After some research, I found that a good course of action for me would be to avoid medication and try to use organic and all-natural foods and body products--but they were expensive and/or hard to find! So, I started making and growing much of what I needed to keep myself healthy and pain-free.

In 2009 Shepherd's Harvest started as a home canning and pickling business, selling through farm stores to the eastern CT community. I spent some time working on organic vegetable and dairy farms, and eventually started making my own goat milk soap. This blossomed into a business, along with shampoo bars, deodorants (with no aluminum), and an insect repellent which seems to work ridiculously well!

In June 2012, I decided to share the products with the general public through this Etsy store. My personal mission is to provide you, my friends, with high quality products with minimal packaging and fuss; for a reasonable price. Hope you enjoy all that Shepherd's Harvest has to offer!
