My heroes
Everyone I meet that radiates love and forgiveness
My non-green guilty pleasure
My daily cup of free trade coffee and when I have to drive my car with a V8 engine
When I decided to de-toxify my home a few years back, finding something to clean with that smelled clean was a challenge. After all I was used to using artificial smelling cleaners that were strong in more than one way.
After trying a few different brands that either didn't clean up without rinsing, rinsing, and rinsing which wasn't the green way to go or they just smelled bad or bland. I stumbled upon Meyer Clean day Geranium. My expectations were not high after all I had no idea what a geranium smelled like to tell you the truth. What a wonderful surprise! Cleans up without massive amounts of rinsing and smells like a dream. When people enter my condo afterwards they ask what that heavenly smell is? I love the all purpose cleaner, the surface scrub and window cleaner.

A friend of mine started making Oregon Soap about fourteen years ago. He (the Soapman and his wife asked me to help them expand to the Midwest this past fall. The soap is amazing and I was only to happy to assist.
Soapman has taken green to a whole new level!
This soap lasts forever, in fact I was anxious to try the other "flavors" long before the one in my shower gave out.
Free of artificial fragrances, colors and detergents use this soap with complete confidence that you are not applying toxins to your skin.
Because it's gently moisturizing I don't feel dryed out when I dry off. Scent lasts until bar is finished my favorites so far are Soapman Spice, French Clay and Geranium, and Patchouli.
Does not get goopy, cracked or shriveled, I can hardly believe how different it is from mass produced brands.
The Soapman has got it right for every ten bars of soap sold one tree is planted!
Oregon Soap Company uses 100% renewable enegry sources for their shop and offices, using reclaimed wood for all displays, using 100% post consumer recycled paper for promotion and packaging materials!
Wow now that is green livin'!
