As the leaves change colors and the air carries a distinct crispness, we find ourselves immersed in a profound sense of gratitude. The holiday season is a chance for us to reflect on the journey we've traversed as a small business dedicated to crafting natural, eco-friendly soaps. It's a time for us to not only celebrate our accomplishments but also to express our heartfelt appreciation to our customers, supporters, and the environment that inspires us.
We both recall the early days when The Healthy Porcupine was just a budding idea, born out of a desire to create more sustainable, chemical-free soaps. Jen had skin concerns and wanted to create a natural solution to cleanse, soothe, and moisturize her skin without irritation. From there, we began building the Healthy Porcupine you know and love today.
However, the road to where we are was not without its challenges. Long hours, uncertainties, and the unpredictable nature of starting a small business tested our resolve. After over ten years of investing in our business, we are truly proud.
One of the things that we are both incredibly grateful for are the stories we receive from customers. The heartwarming testimonials and success stories shared by customers who have experienced the positive effects of our soaps are a constant source of inspiration. Whether it's someone finding relief from dry or irritated skin, embracing a more chemical-free lifestyle, or simply feeling invigorated by the natural scents, these stories reinforce our purpose.
We are also profoundly grateful for the opportunity to pursue our passion full-time. With your support, we have worked together to create soaps and balms that help our customers’ skin and our own. Nutrient-rich, moisturized skin is something everyone should experience, and we hope our soaps and balms can help our customers on that mission.
This season serves as a poignant reminder to pause, reflect, and express appreciation. It's about acknowledging the small moments that shape our journey—a smile from a satisfied customer, a positive review, or the simple joy of witnessing the impact of our eco-friendly initiatives.
We invite everyone to embrace the spirit of gratitude. Take a moment to appreciate the little things—the warmth of a hot shower, the natural scent of our soaps, the companionship of loved ones, and the beauty of the world around us.
As a small business, we extend our deepest gratitude to each and every individual who has supported us on this incredible voyage. Your belief in our mission and products fuels our passion and commitment to crafting exceptional natural soaps.
From all of us at The Healthy Porcupine, we wish you a season filled with gratitude, joy, and an abundance of natural goodness.
Warmest wishes,
Darlene and Jennifer
The Healthy Porcupine
