Hello and welcome to Balsam Ledge. My name is Leslie. I live in a small town in Maine with my husband of over 30 years. In 2016, we purchased land and built our current home. On our property we raise a few farm animals and grow as much of our own food as possible. In 2019, I left my full time job to stay home and focus on a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Having time at home gave me the opportunity to try a craft that I had been wanting to learn for a long time…soap making. I was especially interested in goat milk soaps. In 2023, I opened an Etsy shop originally selling scented wax melts and soon expanding my product line to include goat milk soaps scented with essential oils and colored with plant based colorants. Soap making has been a wonderful experience for me and I hope to continue learning and growing -expanding my product line as I do. I hope that you try my products and that you enjoy using them as much as I do creating them. Thank you for stopping by!
