Susan Miles of Maple Hill Goat Milk Soap Joins Lady Nin's Art FestivalMeet Susan Miles of Maple Hill Goat Milk Soap
Hi! I'm Susan Miles. I live in Freeland Washington, on the south end of Whidbey Island, with my husband, Steve, and our two great little boys. We love the relaxed, rural lifestyle of our beautiful island - and being so close to the water at all times. Whidbey Island's strong community spirit is an important part of our lives.
We currently have four dogs (new border collie puppy,) an old cat, and now eight Alpine dairy goats. We originally bought dairy goats as a way to make our own goat cheese. It didn't take long to have more milk and cheese than we can drink, eat and give away.
I started making goat-milk soap as a way to help my friends and family who suffer from eczema and dry skin. With my chemistry background, I was drawn to soapmaking. When I learned that I could make a natural, moisturizing soap with my extra goat milk (which helps to make skin HEALTHY,) I knew I was meant to make it and share it.
The very first Maple Hill goat-milk soap was "unscented oatmeal." My friend's daughter used it, and she said it was the ONLY soap that has ever helped minimize the blemishes on her face. Since then, many people have shared their similarly-great experiences.
I had another customer come up to me at the Greenbank Farmer's Market . She had red, peeling, irritated, almost-raw hands. She bought one of my soaps, and a month later after only using my soap, she came back: Her hands had healed so much!
I will always carry an unscented soap for those who want it. I also have many all-natural soaps. For others without sensitivities, I have many wonderfully-fragrant soaps which will surely delight you!
I want you to experience how great your skin can really feel with my special goat-milk soap!
