About Us
Golden-Aire Farm (33 + acres) is home to Good Horse Scents, LLC. This is where we have raised our family, garden, and horses for RCTRC.org.
We are located in Milton, WV just 3.5 miles off of I-64. We began making soap and natural body products due to food intolerance that Connie developed (2011). We wanted to use botanicals, clays and herbs to provide amazing soothing and cleansing benefits. We loved that we could change the lather - make it more bubbly with sugars, honey, beer and wine or make it lotion like with Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, and Mango Butter. We loved that we could use locally raised pig fat - i.e. Lard or beef fat - i.e. Tallow. We have been raising many of the herbs and botanicals here. In 2019 we became part of the West Virginia Grown Program, which was a huge deal for us.
We make 11 Foundation Bar Soaps; a total of 35 soaps that are made - some seasonally - some specific to our wholesale accounts - all are artisan and made in West Virginia. We also handcraft bath bombs, shower fizzles, lotions, balms, salves, shampoo bars, conditioner bars, botanical bath teas, essential oil scented bath salts, natural deodorants, beard balms and beard oils. We have something for most everyone. Our Jewelweed soap has been sold all around the US and our Appalachian Outdoor Lotion and Sprays have been amazingly popular too!
We teach classes on wildcrafting, making herbal/botanical preparations including syrups and tinctures. If you have questions, ask!

Practices
We do not use pesticides or herbicides. We do it as naturally as possible meaning we hand pull or cultivate with farm equipment - which is not easy or fun, but simply necessary. We purchase ingredients from reputable companies that use sustainable practices. When we can - we use certified organic products and have been blessed with the ability to do so.
