Arcadia Valley Soap Company BEST SPECIALTY SHOP IN ARCADIA VALLEY Celebrating 20 years of making soap

Hendron said she feels the readers voted for them because of the overall experience of coming into the shop and taking home a piece of the Valley.
“The shop is always changing, so there is always something new,” Hendron said. “We work really hard to make shopping with us special for everyone that walks through the door. There have been so many amazing customers from all over the Parkland area that have come to visit us, told their friends about us and shared our products. I am very grateful for all who voted.”
Arcadia Valley Soap Company uses mostly local suppliers for its gift baskets and everything is made at the store.
“We handcraft our products from our little soap shop right on Main Street in Ironton,” Hendron said. “Shanda (Martin) makes all of our hand-poured wax melts and manages the store. I create the soaps and other body care products and handle the online side of things.”
Along with the three brands: Arcadia Valley Soap, Botanical Earth and MoSoap, the duo also design custom wedding and shower favors and offer private labeling and wholesale options.
“We enjoy whipping up a lastminute gift to help someone out,” Hendron said. “It’s not just about making the best products we can and adding the little touches like pretty tissue paper, but making people feel welcome, plus loving what we do is what makes Arcadia Valley Soap Co. special.”
Arcadia Valley Soap Company is open Monday-Friday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Shanda Martin and Debra Hendron create a gift basket with many of their handcrafted items, at Arcadia Valley Soap Company.
