About this activity
This 90-minute experience offers the rare chance to create a premium skincare product from scratch using fresh goat milk right from our own resident herd. It’s a completely beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop where you are guided through the entire process—from choosing custom scents and colors to pouring the mold. Best of all, it seamlessly blends an interactive studio craft with a relaxing, outdoor meet-and-greet with our friendly miniature dairy goats, sending you home with a giant 3lb loaf of custom soap perfect for sensitive skin.

Itinerary
Enjoy a hands-on homesteading experience at Diamond E Ranch! In this fun and interactive workshop, learn the art of traditional cold-process soap making from scratch using all-natural ingredients—including GOAT MILK! Your experience begins in our studio, selecting your custom blend of essential oils and vibrant natural colorings. We guide you step-by-step through the entire process from blending ingredients with lye to pouring at the proper moment just as the soap begins to firm. While your creation settles into its mold, the fun moves outside! Take a guided walk around the ranch to meet our friendly resident goats and enjoy the peaceful ranch atmosphere. What You’ll Take Home: We provide all supplies, safety gear, and a wide selection of essential oils. (Want to get extra fancy? Browse our studio's collection of rare, premium essential oils and botanicals available for a small additional cost). You’ll leave with a massive 3lb loaf of custom soap safely packed in a travel box. After 48 hours you can slice your loaf into 10–12 thick bars. After a 1-month curing process at home, you’ll have a year's supply of skin-nourishing soap (or perfect handmade gift!).
