We’ve been wanting to write this blog post for a while, and this may be our favorite part:

Since the whole pitch is that tallow is the rebellious alternative to corporate soap, here’s the irony: tallow built corporate soap.

Check the label on the cheapest bars at any grocery store and you’ll often find sodium tallowate, which is simply saponified beef tallow. Industrial soap makers have relied on it for generations because it’s inexpensive, not because it’s especially kind to skin.

We’ve made soap for 27 years without a drop of it.

So when influencers sell $40 jars of “ancestral rebellion,” they’re often promoting the same fat found in the 99-cent bar they just told you to throw away.

That’s only one part of the story. In the full post, we dig into the science, the marketing, the environmental questions, and why we’ll continue choosing proven plant-based oils and butters instead.

Downtown Medford is getting a little more red, white, and blue just in time for the Fourth of July. 🇺🇸✨

For years, the flag brackets remained on the downtown light posts, but the flags and poles themselves were gone. What happened to them is still a bit of a mystery. Medford did not have them in storage, and no one seemed to know where they went.

But thanks to the hard work of the Downtown Medford Association, the City of Medford, and some very dedicated volunteers, the flags are finally coming back!

The city and the DMA worked together to launch this project, and this week the DMA and volunteers will be putting them up throughout downtown. And of course, no good comeback story is complete without a little problem-solving. The new poles did not fit the original brackets, but Andy (after a full day of problem solving) came up with a simple and brilliant hitch pin solution to keep them secure, and the DMA team made it happen. It is sturdy, practical, and built to serve downtown for years to come.

A very special thank you to Annie (and Brooks who drilled all the holes!), the executive director of the DMA, who has worked tirelessly to make sure this project came together in time for this very special Fourth of July!! We are also so grateful to the Downtown Medford Association, its members, the City of Medford, and every volunteer helping bring this beautiful tradition back to our streets.

Downtown Medford is moving forward (MedForward!!), and this Fourth of July, it will be flying a little brighter. ❤️🤍💙 Downtown Medford Association City of Medford, Local Government

Downtown Medford is RAD, and this Friday we’re proving it. ⚡️

Third Friday is happening June 19th, and it’s going to be such a fun night downtown! We’ll be open late from 4–8pm with 20% off everything in store and complimentary bubbly while you shop. 🥂✨

There will be live music set up right across the street from us, vendors, food trucks, and all kinds of specials happening at businesses up and down Main Street. Downtown is coming alive, and we are so here for it.

And right behind us in the alley near Rogue Gallery & Art Center, there will be an awesome skateboard deck art exhibition, which feels like the perfect “Downtown Medford is rad” moment.

So grab a friend, stroll Main Street, shop local, sip some bubbly, eat something delicious, check out the art, listen to music, and come be part of making Third Friday happen.
