    At Dara’s Soapery, I create clean, everyday self-care essentials designed to bring a moment of calm into even the busiest routines. What began as a hands-on curiosity in my kitchen in 2023 has grown into a full line of handmade products including soaps, shampoo bars, conditioner bars, and my Calm Oasis Collection of home fragrances. I make every batch intentionally and in small quantities, using clean, high-quality ingredients that are gentle on skin and kind to the planet.

    My mission is simple: self-care should feel accessible, uncomplicated, and something you genuinely look forward to. I create products meant to be used, not saved for a special occasion, that daily dose of care your body and mind keep reaching for.

    I love connecting with customers and fellow makers. My journey is deeply shaped by motherhood. I wanted products safe and clean enough for my own family, and now I share that same care with others. You’ll find me at local shops and events throughout the year, sharing products that feel good, smell good, and make a meaningful difference in everyday life.

    Master Herbalist, Artisanal Homesteader
    Northampton, PA

    Dawe Estates Display Square

    DAWE ESTATES is an artisanal apothecary rooted in traditional herbal craft, seasonal living, and a deep respect for the land. Founder Sofia Christina grew up in rural Maine, learning hands-on herbal making alongside her mother—drying plants, blending remedies, and crafting simple gifts from what the land provided. That early foundation in folk practice and natural materials continues to guide her work today, blending ancestral knowledge with thoughtful modern formulation.

    Now based in the Lehigh Valley, DAWE ESTATES creates small-batch herbal goods using organically grown, homegrown, and carefully wildcrafted plants whenever possible. Offerings include loose-leaf teas, infused honeys, botanical sachets, herbal oils and salves, resin botanical pieces, and seasonal herbal gifts—each made with intention, quality ingredients, and an emphasis on beauty as well as function. Every product reflects a slow, hands-on process and a connection to the natural rhythms of the seasons.

    DAWE ESTATES regularly participates in local pop-ups, sip & shop events, holiday markets, and community gatherings throughout the Lehigh Valley. The brand is closely tied to its home landscape, where gardens are planted with pollinators in mind and herbal craft is treated as both practical and artful. At its heart, DAWE ESTATES exists to offer thoughtfully made herbal goods that feel timeless, nourishing, and deeply connected to place.

    Soap and Skincare Maker

    Noraa Body Love Soap - Baja Cactus Blossom Bar

    Noraa Body Love is all about crafting luxurious skincare products that celebrate and nourish your skin. Founded in 2021, my journey began as I searched for a solution to get rid of my adult acne and oily skin. After trying countless products that either didn’t work or made things worse, I started researching and experimenting with soap making at home. The results were life-changing, and what began as a simple experiment quickly evolved into a passion, leading to the launch of Noraa Body Love. The name “Noraa” is a heartfelt dedication to my stepfather, Aaron, who passed away in 2020 from complications of early-onset dementia. Honoring him in this way keeps his memory alive in every product I create.

    At Noraa Body Love, each product is made with the utmost care and attention to detail. I carefully select every ingredient, focusing on quality, simplicity, and skin-loving benefits. From wine-infused soaps in collaboration with local wineries to soothing turmeric and shea butter bars, there’s a product for every skin type and preference. You can find me at various local events and festivals in the Lehigh Valley area, where I love connecting with customers and sharing the Noraa Body Love experience. I also teach soap making classes at various venues in the area for all ages.

    Being part of the Lehigh Valley community is at the heart of what I do. It’s a privilege to contribute to local events and to offer products that not only care for your skin but also support a small, Black woman-owned, business. Whether you’re looking for a thoughtful gift or a little self-care treat, I hope Noraa Body Love brings a touch of everyday luxury into your life.

    Health2You Owner, Jamie

    Hi, there!! My name is Jamie and I’m from Pennsylvania. After attending a lecture on essential oils, I became immediately drawn to the health benefits that these oils offer.  The journey began……

    I was and continue to be amazed at the positive effects they have on my health, my family’s health, and our emotional well-being. Not only do they help the physical body but they also work in the body on an emotional level. After encouragement from friends and family,  Health2You, LLC. was born.  I know that this is the Lord’s path for me. I faced health challenges as well as my children. These oils supported their bodies as well as mine.  I created blends to meet the needs of my family and friends. I am blessed to be making a positive difference in the lives of others and I want to thank you for entrusting me to make a positive difference in your life as well.

    I only use certified pure essential oils.

    My Schedule 2025:

    In addition to my Organic Anti-Aging Cream and Organic Calming Cream & Moisturizer, I have in my product line my own Bug Repellent Blend, Flea and Tick Prevention for cats and dogs, Gardener’s Delight, Hand Sanitizer Spray, Headache Stick, Hot Flashes Stick, Muscle Magic, Scar Stick, and Back Buster is now available which is more targeted for spine discomfort. Every product has been tested for its effectiveness. I also make custom blends for customers needing something else that I don’t currently have in my product line.
