On Saturday we introduce Just Hatched, new soaps for summer at the Hopkins Farmers Market. Just Hatched are small-batches (only 8-12 bars) of seasonal soap made just for summer, which we will rotate throughout the market season. We love to experiment with exciting new designs and scents so come out and see our Just Hatched summer soaps.
Gray Duck Soap’s The Master Series of shaving soap took an enormous amount of trial-and-error and testing to develop. In fact, no other of our more than 50 soaps has gone through this much research and development. We believe we have produced the perfect traditional men’s shaving soap.
It’s spring In Minnesota and the lilac bushes are budding. The full blooms usually coincide with Mother’s Day and bring back fond memories. As kids we would clip the blooms from the bushes across the street (if the neighbors noticed they never said anything) and place a bouquet on the table before making Mom her Mother’s Day breakfast.

The rubber ducky is now a token choice in Hasbro’s classic game Monopoly. That’s right, after 82 years of brothers and sisters fighting over who got stuck with the thimble, boot or wheelbarrow, these tokens are gone, replaced by T-Rex, a penguin, and the rubber ducky.
