Welcome to Akre Homestead!
All natural soaps, made with homegrown ingredients and inspired by homestead living.
We are a Northern Minnesota family of six, farming on land that has been in my family for 5 generations. What started out as a lifestyle choice for our young family, has grown into a full time passion. We have a small herd of Jersey cows that I milk every morning. Every year we raise a few hives a bees to pollinate our plants, and we harvest the honey, beeswax and propolis. Each spring we plant a garden and try to put up as much of our own food as we can. Soap making is my creative outlet that has bloomed into a wonderful business. The soaps tie all of our farming branches together. All Akre Homestead soaps have our own homegrown Lard, Tallow, Raw Milk, Honey and Beeswax. Along with select botanicals and powders. I firmly believe that you should wash your hands with beautiful soap every day. Thanks for being here!
