Winter Wind Storm Warning #3…..??

Once again the Puget Sound area is under a severe wind storm watch….

Wind gusts along the coast have exceeded 119 miles per hour and is supposed to reach inland here at approx. 60 mph.

The ground is totaly saturated as we had snow over the weekend which has since melted and it has been pouring rain non-stop since Sunday afternoon.

This is a recipe for disaster as even a moderate wind will topple trees and down power lines due to the saturated ground.

We have been lucky the last two wind storms and did not lose power…

We may not be so lucky this time.

In the event we lose power we will return emails and phone calls as soon as power is restored.

Thank you.

Umoja Collection…

Our Umoja products are high in unrefined virgin coconut oil, shea butter and kpangan. These raw ingredients are hand processed by the women of Togo, Africa.
Country Meadow purchases these ingredients from a local African producer that is a member of the Fair Trade Federation as well as Fair Trade Africa. This company puts money back into the African community by giving the women of Africa a fair living wage as well as donating books, supplies, uniforms and desks to the children of local villages.

Virgin Coconut Oil
Made from fresh coconut meat using a wet milling process. The coconut meat is hand pounded in wooden mortars to express the coconut milk which is then fermented for 24-36 hours. During this time the water separates from the oil. The oil is removed from the fermented mixture and heated slightly for a short time to remove moisture and then filtered. The result is a clear coconut oil that retains the distinct coconut scent. This is the traditional method of coconut oil extraction that has been used in Togo for hundreds of years. The oil is not mass produced but made by hand. No chemicals are used in the growing or processing of the coconuts. Virgin coconut oil is not refined with either chemicals or high heating which ensures that the oil retains all of its natural antioxidants.

Unrefined Shea Butter
Shea butter comes from the kernals of wild shea trees that grow in the savanna’s of central and northern Togo. Unrefined shea butter contains an abundance of healing ingredients including vitamins, minerals, proteins and a unique fatty acid profile. Shea butter is a superior skin moisturizer and helps the skin restore its natural elasticity.

Kpangan
Kpangan is the butter of the Butter Tree (pentadesma butyracea) which grows in the rainforests and riverbanks along the west coast of Africa. Like shea butter, kpangan is harvested from kernals and is used in central Togo for generations as a skin moisturizer, food oil and traditional soap. An unexpected characteristic of kpangan is its high percentage of stigmasterol, an unsaturated plant sterol usually found in plant fats like soybean oil, rape seed and cocoa butter.

Wild African Honey
African wild honey is unfiltered, unpasterized and contains all of its natural vitamins, minerals and amino acids. We use the honey in our Huruma soap to give it a natural honey like scent.

Umoja – Unity/Harmony (swahili)

**Busara 

Busara – Wisdom (swahili)
Rich in unrefined shea butter, virgin coconut oil and kpangnan.
An exotic blend with notes of black pepper, elemi, nutmeg, juniper berries, ginger, clary sage, sandalwood, ylang ylang and cypress.

**Huruma 

Huruma – Compassion (swahili)
Rich in unrefined shea butter, virgin coconut oil and kpangnan.
Scented with wild African honey, cinnamon & clove essential oils.

**Imara  

Imara – Strength (swahili)
Rich in unrefined shea butter, virgin coconut oil and kpangnan.
A nearly natural blend of patchouli, orange, lavendin, pine, lemongrass, elemi, and gardenia.
This scent is alluring and sensuous and contains just 1% of synthetic to mimic ambergris (a musky note extracted from sperm whale intestines…aren’t you glad we dont use the real thing!!…ew!)
This scent blend is loved by both men and women.

SpaLusion Collection…

Products with spa specific fragrances to enjoy in the comfort of your own home!Each scent collection has been designed with an ingredient and scent to correspond to the actual area the specific ingredient originated from (gosh..did that make sense??!!

Spa
The term spa is traditionally used to mean a place where water that is believed to have special health-giving properties occurs. This is usually a mineral or hot spring. While some believe that the term is derived from the Belgian town of Spa, it is generally believed that it is an acronym for the phrase “Salus Per Acquam.”

A modern spa can be a luxurious resort or resort hotel, that may be located near a special water source or offers hot tub or similar warm-water hydromassage facilities. In some cases, it can refer to a high end hotel or resort that caters to individuals seeking privacy.

Mankind has sought relief from the pressures of everyday life by going to spas since the first Roman baths in 25 BC.

Treatments fall into one of five categories: massage, exfoliation, bath, hydrotherapy and wraps.

Males make up 25 percent of all spa customers and that number increases every year.

**Ein Gedi 

Has fresh, green notes with the softness of aloe. A light and refreshing scent.

Ein Gedi is an actual nature preserve that sits along the Syrian/African Rifts not far from the Dead Sea. The preserves four springs – David, Arugot, Shulamit and Ein Gedi are literally the wellsprings for a wealth of flora and fauna providing a stark contrast to the parched desert environment.

Our Ein Gedi collection pays tribute to the Dead Sea as we use Dead Sea Clay in our soap and clay masks.

**Ile de France 

A refreshing, sensational fragrance with notes of cooling greens, snappy ginger and revitalizing melons. A perfect scent to recharge your inner beauty.

Ile de France is an actual fertile depression in France where the Marne and the Ouse rivers join the Seine.

Our Ile de France collection pays tribute to France as we use french green clay in our soap and clay masks.
This is our favorite of the three scents.

**Valley of Dades 

A fresh, clean scent with hints of aloe, greens and a subtle twist of citrus.

Nestled in between Jbel Sarho and the Atlas Mountains, the Dades valley winds its way through a dry desert like countryside and provides moisture for a series of oasis. The Skoura and Amerhidil ravines provide water for a number of fig, date and almond orchards. This is where some of the best dates in Morocco are produced. Rhassoul clay is mined from beneath the Atlas Mountains.

Valley of Dades pays tribute to Morocco as we use Rhasshoul clay in our soap and clay masks.
