About Us
Hidden Valley Farms started when we lived on a mountain top in
Republic
Washington in a one room log cabin with gravity fed water and solar power.
Wanting to support ourselves in that remote location we decided to make
herbal soap for three basic reasons. First, we were already growing skin
healing herbs of comfrey, calendula and chamomile. Second,
it was something we
could start with very little funding. And Finally, it represented a wholesome product
that we felt compelled to bring to market. Our name, "Hidden Valley Farms"
came from the fact that we grew the herbs in our organic gardens
that was truly hidden away up there on that mountain top
Growth Spurt
As the months came and went, we slowly accumulated retailers from all over
Washington State. We finally outgrew our one room log cabin and had to move
into a more accessible location. Our new location offered us much
better accessibility to retail markets. We are now located on a ranch in
western Washington not far from Mt. Rainier. Converting an old barn into
both factory and living quarters, our little business has thrived for five
years. A constant routine of travel and sales, then coming back
for more manufacturing and design has provided us with a unique product line
of soaps that our retailers have assisted us in developing. Since then we moved the business to Sedona in Arizona, although we still have our base in Washington and still grow the herbs. We are now sat here amid the vortexes of Sedona making our soap.
Our Secret
Our soaps cater to the practical and the whimsical due to the unique design
of the wrappers and the wonderful soaps inside. Knowing that a continuance of business requires
exceptional qualities in the recipe and mixing, we continually strive for a
bar with higher lather and more moisturizing and healing
qualities. Utilizing the highest food grade vegetable ingredients, ultra
pure well water, and our own unique style of blending, we
have drawn customers from Alaska to Florida. From national park services to museums and
fine gift shops, to national catalog houses and health clinics, our
fine line of gourmet soaps are now considered among the very
best. Additionally, we have set up an in-house graphic arts department for
custom contract wrapper designs.
Soap for the Homeland
We advertise our product line as a true "Made in America" product - so rare
these days. Keep American dollars in America, and help employ another
family. With over 1000 outlets across the country, we
market to
retailers and corporate accounts and recently added a new
online retail store.
Remember, "what ever
mess you get yourself into...we can clean you up!"
