Our Story | Prepared by Hand Since 2015
Handcrafted. Cruelty Free. Palm Free. Vegan.
Earth & Anchor began in 2015 out of the belief that what we put on our bodies is just as important as what we put in our bodies. We started out creating small batches of soap using only high quality & all-natural ingredients. Over the next year, we perfected our formula to create a versatile, all-natural bar of soap that is fine tuned for body, hair, face & hands. The ultimate clean. Since then, we have added specialized products such as shampoo bars, vegan deodorants, incense, hand sanitizers, and more.
In January 2018, we packed up our Soap Lab in Providence, RI and trekked across the country to the small mining town of Madrid, NM, which we called home for three years. In 2020, we decided that it was time to move along from our desert home, and we moved from New Mexico to a small homestead in Central Kentucky where we lived & worked for three years on our little mountain homestead.
In August of 2023, we moved yet again...this time back to New England! We settled into a homestead in Killingly, Connecticut, built in 1860. Our new "Soap Barn" facility is housed in its own 2500 sq ft building, where we produce our entire line of handcrafted E&A products.
We can be found locally around Connecticut, Rhode Island + New England at Farmers Markets, Pop-Up Markets, and festivals throughout the year.
All of our soaps are crafted in small batches using the traditional cold-process method. Each of our products is carefully created using original formulations and all natural ingredients.
Earth & Anchor is a Veteran Owned business, and a proud member of the Handmade Soap & Cosmetic Guild. We NEVER test our products on animals. Earth & Anchor Soaps are 100% PALM FREE.
