"In 2009, a friend introduced me to the world of homemade soap. I became fascinated with the process and fell in love with the results. What began as a hobby has now developed into a small business. Combining my love of gardening and my desire to use more natural products, Garden Path Homemade Soap emerged." Tara MacWhirter, CEO & Founder.
Garden Path Homemade Soap creates a wide variety of natural products. Our bath, body & cleaning products are available throughout the year in our shoppe and online. Many of the herbs and flowers used in our products are grown in the gardens on our five-acre property. Visitors have the opportunity to take numerous photographs of the lavender plot, the pond, the gardens or the monarch butterflies that we raise every summer. In addition, we offer educational information on these magnificent butterflies. Visitors can learn about their life cycle and view the metamorphosis in our rearing cage situated on the property from August to October. Grab a map and take a free, self-guided tour of our gardens or reserve a group tour (minimum 8 people) in advance for a small fee.
