our first batch of solid dish soap is done. because sometimes i’d rather NOT wash my dishes with a bottle full of mystery ingredients and harsh junk from the big brands.
we wanted something made with simpler, more natural ingredients and fewer harsh chemicals hanging out at the sink. plus less plastic, less clutter, and way cuter on the counter.
this first test batch is sweet orange, lemon, and lavender. we only made 5 to see how they do, and now they cure for a month. if all goes well, we’re making a bigger batch next week.

I have lots of flowers blooming right now, so I’m thinking about making up a few fresh bouquets for $10 each.
I can have them ready Wednesday for pickup in Emmett, or Shaniko can deliver to Vision Charter School on wednesday or i can deliver western aircraft on thursday. 💐
Comment below or message me if you’d like one so I know how many to make.

33 years of love, laughter, questionable decisions and saying, “sure, let’s start a lavender farm.” 😂🌿
before there was Ristau Family Farm, there was us. still laughing, still dreaming and apparently still not afraid of a little chaos. ❤️ Cowboys Chophouse

ISO: lavender still 🌿I’m looking for a used, reasonably priced still for distilling lavender essential oil and hydrosol.I’m building our little lavender farm from the ground up, so unfortunately I’m not in the market for the beautiful several-thousand-dollar setups right now 😂If you have one sitting unused, know someone who does, or have a lead on an affordable setup, please send me a message!

a girl deserves a new battery-powered toy every now and then 😏😂🌿 this cordless hedge trimmer made cleaning up the lavender field on my lunch break much faster. farm smarter, not harder!

this weekend’s farm project: solid dish soap 🧼
shaniko will be doing the heavy lifting with the lye because we all know i don’t color between the lines 😂
made in small batches and poured right into its own ceramic dish. just wet the brush, work up a lather, scrub, and rinse.
would you try solid dish soap?

collecting all the things to make all the things. 😂
soap-making supplies, lavender bundles, crochet chickens and about seventeen new ideas fighting for first place. this little Idaho lavender farm is slowly turning into the creative life I’ve been dreaming about. 💜🌿🐓

i thought this was going to be a failure. 😂
coloring between the lines has never exactly been my strong suit.
but looky here… i just kept moving forward, and it turned out pretty fabulous. 🍞🤎
maybe that’s the lesson.
you don’t have to know exactly what you’re doing.
just keep going. 💜

nothing says “before work” like pajamas, giant shoes and pruning lavender. 😂
our first-year lavender is trying to bloom, but not today, babies. ✂️💜 we’re growing roots first.
