We had a lovely visit and tour led by Shelby, who was wonderfully pleasant and patient. Very informative and super kid-friendly. Learning about the chickens, goats, and soap was wonderful. The benefits and prices are invaluable and quality made. read more

Basilwood is approximately a 30 minute drive from city, to the location in the foothills. It's very easy to find, and a fun outing for my group of visitors. The goats are fun to watch. If you plan in advance, there is a soap making class that is really fun for a group, and also a cheese making class. The cheese making class was something that we did during Thanksgiving weekend last year and it was very informative, fun,... And delicious! There is a shop that sells so many great, and affordable local goods. You can purchase eggs, the BEST goat milk products, and chat with the friendly and informative people who run the place. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Such a cute place. Soon as we parked we walked over to the chickens then up to the goats. The signs we clear and easy to understand. Everything was clean. The shop was so cute bought a bunch of gifts and the lady in the shop was friendly and helpful so many great smells. Only wish there was an option to pay for like a handful of hay to feed the goats of chicken feed. Would have love that interaction. Still will recommend and come back again. Thank You read more

This is one of those hidden local gems that I selfishly want to remain hidden so that it doesn't lose its charm--and I can continue to find parking when I stop by, but that is such an amazing local treasure that deserves success, so I must share---and share immediately. I discovered this farm's existence after seeing their Spring Fling event posted on social media--an opportunity to pet baby goats (BABY GOATS!!!) and did some digging to learn more about this place. It appears to be a family-run farm that raises goats for their milk, which they then use to make artisan soaps and other amazing items. It also looks like there are a variety of classes available, including cheese-making and soap "woolie" making. While they are open to the public three days a week, they have events approximately once a quarter when they have new products to roll out. And by roll out, I mean it. At the Spring fling, not only could you visit the soap shop and pick up a decadent soap, lotion, bath bomb, or other grooming item, but there was a kitchen filled with lemon bars, brownies, cookies, and other treats for visitors, as well as ice cold water. Outside, in the beautifully landscaped grounds, visitors could feed, pet, and hold baby goats, purchase gorgeous flower boquets, and peruse other treasures at a few other artist booths. Everything was gorgeous. And to top it off, there was a tempting swing set/jungle gym available for the younger visitors to enjoy. And on top of this, we got to enjoy a beautiful springish ride through the countryside--filled with fields and hills adorned with wildflowers, baby animals, birds of prey, and lush green grass. My only suggestion--the sign is super easy to miss---some sort of extra postings for quarterly events would really help people find the place. But other than that, this was all-around an awesome experience. read more

I just want to say how much I love Basilwood Farm and all the little "goatees" that help make their products. I have been using the soaps for 2 years and they never fail to delight. I appreciate their quality. What is also a delightful surprise is their customer service. Jill and her team always write a handwritten message on the invoice. It makes me feel so appreciated and not just someone who is giving them money. Many thanks to everyone involved with Basilwood and especially to the little goats!!! If you have not tried their products, especially if you have been using commercial soaps, I invite you to give them a try. I am pretty sure you will be delightfully surprised and an immediate convert. read more

#1 they're local and shipping is super quick #2 they're personal and make you feel appreciated #3 almost everything smells amazing, leaves you soft, clean and refreshed #4 most importantly, my wife gets closer to me and continually smells me.. usually I'm the one intoxicated by her smell so it's empowering to be the one who brings us closer read more

I became acquainted with Basilwood through social media having read about their soaps on Facebook and seeing the photos of the farm and goats on Instagram. A friend gifted me with a few bars of Basilwood goat milk soap. The quality is so high. This week I got to visit the farm and meet Jill and some of her goats. My small grandchildren loved it and enjoyed picking out their own soaps. So much variety from which to choose. Should you wish to visit in person, the farm is only open to the public on Tuesdays from 10 am to 2 pm. read more

The family that runs it is super sweet and gracious. Thank you! Can't wait to go back. read more

Basilwood Farm - Enjoying a day at Basilwood Farm! - Shopping Near Me - Prather, California

Received a gift of Basilwood Farm's soaps from my sister, who lives near Prather. Really love the scents, and the ingredients are top-quality. Lathers up nicely, moisturizing, leaves me feeling so good! If you have sensitive skin like me, most commercial bar soaps are drying, and chemicals in liquid bath soaps are terribly drying -especially during our Midwestern Winters! I am forever grateful for being introduced to Basilwood Farms, just placed an online order and am trying some new scents. I am looking forward to visiting their shop on my next visit to California -congratulations on a wonderful product line! read more

Basilwood Farm. What a delightful place! Amazing products that are such a sigh of relief in the chemical laden world of beauty products. If you have a chance to go to the Farm you will be greeted by the adorable goats that are milked to make these all-natural items for your beauty regimen. The soaps are beautiful and make wonderful gifts. Luckily items are sold in various shops if you can't make it to the Farm. Such a great way to buy local! read more

What can I possibly say about Basilwood Farm that will even do them justice? This family welcomes you in with open arms and treats you like you've known them all of your life. If you get a chance to make the beautiful drive up to the Farm on Tuesdays, it is absolutely a once in a lifetime experience. Not only do you get to tour the farm, but you are greeted with loving goat hugs and kisses! Let me tell you, snuggling with a baby goat is like nothing you will ever do in the city! There is definitely something to be said about the power a baby goat can have on your heartstrings! I swear, I could watch them for DAYS! It never gets old! Goat-therapy should be the new fad! It is actually impossible to leave this place without a smile across your face. As for their amazing products, I have tried every kind of moisturizing soap on the market and nothing makes my skin feel this good. I should say that I have very sensitive skin and am allergic to many cosmetic products, but I've been using Basilwood soaps for months now and never had any kind of reaction! All of their goat's milk products are natural and won't leave a slimy feeling on your skin like most others do. I absolutely love the citrus-y scented products, but my love for them doesn't stop there! I have tried their lotions, creams, bars, and scrubs; all of which were amazing! I simply cannot say enough good things about this amazing family and what they have accomplished with these loving critters! Basilwood Farm is an amazing way to support a local business and I would recommend their products to EVERYONE! read more

I received one of their soaps as a holiday gift (Seaglass) and I'm completely hooked. Lovely light scent, high quality ingredients and very moisturizing. I don't have a retail location near me, so I placed an online order for several more bars of soap. I can't wait to try them all! read more

This place is amazing! I love their soap, lotion and especially the make up remover. If you haven't had a chance to purchase any of their products, pease take time to do so. You won't be sorry! read more
