Black Sage and Vetiver Castile Soap

After making our olive oil soap base, we add black sage (Salvia mellifera) hydrosol, distilled right here on the farm. Black sage is a native plant in our region of Southern California. After the Woolsey fire decimated parts of the farm, we have replanted these areas with black sage and other native plants that have grown here for millennia. We are carefully stewarding these plants to help restore the ecosystem and gently harvesting to ensure the health and longevity of our unique coastal sage scrub habitat. Traditionally, black sage is used to treat pain by the native peoples of this land, the Chumash and Tongva. We donate a portion of every sale of our Black Sage Hydrosol directly to the Chumash Heritage Marine Sanctuary.

We source our vetiver essential oil from the Meyha tribe in West Papua where the cultivation of this root brings about ecological restoration and economic support. This particular vetiver essential oil is truly unique—rich, earthy, and reminiscent of Oud, with a calming, tranquil scent. Vetiver also offers antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, making it soothing for the skin and calming for the mind.

Our California Olive Oil is grown in the calcium-rich soils of Paso Robles, located on the Central Coast of California. We incorporate this premium olive oil across a range of our products, from bar soap to liquid Castile soap, and even in the kitchen. We maintain the same high-quality olive oil in all of our offerings, reflecting our unwavering commitment to excellence. Rich in antioxidants, olive oil nourishes the skin while its natural alpha-hydroxy acids gently exfoliate, leaving your skin smoother and glowing.
