Dancing Bee Farms

Located in the rolling farmland of north central Ohio is Dancing Bee Farms. They source honey from the bees on their home property and from several locations at nearby Kenyon College to make all-natural body care products. The Main Street Makers' Market in downtown Mount Vernon, Ohio has recently been home to Dancing Bee's production studio.

From Jami, founder of Dancing Bee Farms: "I love making natural products that are nourishing for the skin as well as the spirit. I started making soap in 1999, and I knew I could never go back. My husband and I could not return to the harsh, drying commercial detergent-based "soaps." Bathing was a whole new experience when my skin did not feel dry and tight after a shower. Add to this my sensitivities to harsh synthetic fragrances. Essential oils get along so much better with my sensitive skin.”

Jami makes all her products from scratch, starting with honey from the bees in her own backyard and herbs from her garden. She uses pure essential oils, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, and olive oil. All palm oil used is certified organic and sustainable.
