Sonett laundry liquid, Lavender, 120m
SONETT GB5012
Regular price $3.50Sonett’s particularly energy-saving method of saponification, the use of oils and essential oils derived from certified organic cultivation, and its good value for money as far as the laundry liquid’s washing performance is concerned are the outstanding features of this product.
Suitable for coloured and white textiles made from cotton, linen, hemp, and fabric blends; 30–95 °C (85–200 °F). Suitable for HE washing machines.
Soap made from vegetable oils has one outstanding feature compared to all the other active washing substances, namely that, right after its use, it reacts chemically with the limescale always present in waste water, resulting in calcium soap, thus neutralising its surfactant effect on aquatic organisms (primary degradation). The calcium soap is then, by microorganisms, 100% degraded into carbon dioxide and water (secondary degradation). Despite the fact that during the manufacturing of sugar surfactants, coconut oil alcohol sulphate and sulphated castor oil, constituents are being extracted from the plant-based raw materials starch, sugar, and fat, they remain completely intact in their natural molecular structure. For this reason it is relatively easy for the microorganisms to 100% decompose these surfactants. Soap, sugar surfactant, coconut oil alcohol sulphate, and sulphated castor oil are classified as being readily biodegradable according to OECD guidelines.
Suitable for septic tanks and filtration systems.
Aqua, potassium soap*, alkylpolyglucoside C8–C16 (coco glucoside, lauryl glucoside), sodium C8–C14 fatty alcohol sulphate (sodium octyl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate), alcohol, sulphated castor oil, sodium/potassium citrate, parfum*, linalool*, dipterocarpus turbinatus balm extract
*certified organically grown
In this liquid detergent, soap, sugar surfactant and fatty alcohol sulphate complement each other, thus intensifying their effect. To obtain the soap, rapeseed / sunflower oil, certified organically grown, is being saponified in a special process of saponification without applying heat from the outside, using potassium hydroxide solution. Soap as an active washing substance uniquely amalgamates all of the properties required for the washing process – the moistening, the dissolving, and absorbing of dirt. Soap is intensified in this effect by the sugar surfactant and fatty alcohol sulphate, which are obtained by the chemical reaction of the purely plant-based raw materials sugar, starch and coconut oil with acids. At the same time this combination neutralizes the soap’s drawback, i.e. calcium soap being formed, which may precipitate on the laundry should the softener not have been properly measured. The alcohol which is obtained by fermenting plant-based starch serves to keep the detergent liquid, thus enabling a highly concentrated active washing substance. Sulphated castor oil, also called turkey-red oil, is obtained by castor oil reacting chemically with sulphuric acid. It intensifies the detergents fat-dissolving property.
At temperatures below 10-15 °C (50-60 °F), the product changes becoming slightly more solid and whitish; a phase which will pass, however, once the product is exposed to warmth and by shaking it lightly, if necessary.

Sonett gall soap for stain removal, liquid form
RUSKO S-4702
Regular price $11.50Sonett is a trusted name for their utmost care for the environment - there are few manufacturers who can make the claim to being 100% biodegradable like Sonett can.
Highly effective liquid for removing stains and spots caused by fruit, blood, ink, ballpoint pen, grass, and grease, etc.
Suitable for all white and colour-fast textiles made from cotton, linen, hemp and fabric blends. (Before washing coloured textiles, test their colour fastness on a concealed spot.)
Unlike the gall soap bar, Sonett liquid soap may be added to a machine wash cycle. As a wash intensifier: For washing at 30–60 °C (85–140 °F), add 20–30 ml (1 fl oz US) to the main wash cycle of the 4.5 kg (10 lb) washing machine.
For local treatment of stains: Apply undiluted liquid gall soap to the stain and allow taking effect for 10–15 minutes. Wash out thoroughly or place the garment straight into the washing machine.
120 ml liquid in a plastic bottle.
Ingredients:
Soap from rapeseed oil / sunflower oil, certified organically grown 15–30 %
Soap from olive oil, certified organically grown 5–15 %

Bovine gall is a traditional stain remover. Its principal active ingredients, i.e. the bile acids cholic and taurocholic acids, are not only capable of finely dispersing grease and fat-like substances but also of dissolving dyestuffs and forming compounds with them. Soap manufactured from rapeseed / sunflower oil and olive oil with lye (alkaline solution), swells and dissolves the dirt and supports the stain-removing performance property of the bovine gall. Sugar surfactant is obtained from pure plant-based raw materials–sugar, starch and coconut oil– and their chemical reaction with acids. Citric terpene derived from orange peels intensifies even more the fat-dissolving property of Sonett Gall Soap.

Biodegradability
Bovine gall being a purely natural product is 100 % biodegradable. Soap made from plant-based oils has the unique property that, right after its use, it reacts chemically with the limescale always present in waste water, thus forming calcium soap. As a result, the surfactant effect inimical to aquatic organisms is being neutralised within a few hours (primary degradation). Subsequently the calcium soap is, by microorganisms, 100 % decomposed into carbon dioxide and water (secondary degradation).
Despite the fact that during the manufacturing of sugar surfactants and coconut oil alcohol sulphate, constituents are being extracted from the plant-based raw materials starch, sugar, and fat, they remain completely intact in their natural molecular structure. For this reason it is relatively easy for the microorganisms to 100 % decompose these surfactants.
Soap and sugar surfactants are classified as being readily biodegradable according to OECD guidelines.
Suitable for septic tanks and filtration systems.

Sonett olive washing liquid for wool and silk, 500 ml
RUSKO S-4725
Regular price $23.00This olive washing liquid contains olive and rapeseed oil (partly from biodynamic and biological farms), sugar tenside and essential oils of lavender. It is suitable for hand and machine washing at up to 40 °C, particularly for sensitive fibres such as wool and silk.
In this product, high-grade pressed olive oil is being processed to obtain soap which possesses outstanding cleansing properties that are nurturing for woollen and silk fabrics and restore their deficient protective hydrolipidic film. Using sugar surfactant, a soap-based detergent for delicate fabrics is obtained which is very user-friendly even with hard water, yet maintaining all positive properties of a soap-based detergent. Olive oil, rapeseed and sunflower oil originate 100% from certified organic cultivation.
Indicated for delicate laundry, wool, and silk, up to 40 °C (100 °F); to be used in the washing machine as well as for manual washing. Suitable for HE washing machines.
Hardness ranges soft and medium: 60 ml (2 fl oz US)
Hardness range hard: 90 ml (3 fl oz US)
1 litre (34 fl oz US) of Olive Laundry Liquid for Wool and Silk sensitive is sufficient for 17 loads of washing of approx. 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) each, in the hardness ranges soft and medium.
Fill Sonett Laundry Rinse into the softener compartment; revivifies the brightness of delicate colours, helps to rinse out detergent residue more thoroughly, and smoothes fibres.
Add 15–30 ml (0.5–1 fl oz US) per approx. 5 litres (1.3 gal US) of water to the running water, and then place the garments into it. Move very gently only. Rinsing water and wash water should be of similar temperature in order to prevent temperature shock.
Ingredients:
Soap from olive oil, certified organic / biodynamic cultivation 15–30%
Sugar surfactant 5–15%

Olive soap: It is from century-old olive groves of Mediterranean countries such as Italy, Spain and Greece that the fruit originates. It is used to obtain the olive oil – in certified organically grown quality – by mechanical processes such as pressing and centrifugation. When saponified with potassium hydroxide, it is the main constituent of Sonett’s Olive Laundry Liquid for Wool and Silk. Olive oil is the best oil raw material for making mild soap and restoring the deficient protective hydrolipidic film. Its well-balanced composition of fatty acids, its healing balancing effect on the cardiovascular system, and the remarkable growth of the olive tree in a 7-year cycle, demonstrate the special proximity and relationship of this oil to humans.
Rapeseed oil / sunflower oil soap: Vegetable oil, saponified with potassium hydroxide, serves to intensify the washing performance. In addition to flax and sunflower, rapeseed is one of the few oil-yielding plants which are cultivated for oil production in our temperate central European climate, and are also certified organically grown.
Ethanol: It is derived from fermentation of starch-containing plants such as maize and potatoes. Ethanol helps keeping the soap liquid, while at the same time improving the fat-dissolving property of the detergent.
Sugar surfactant: Sugar, starch and coconut oil are the raw materials for the sugar surfactant used. The proportion of sugar surfactant compared to the soap content of the detergent is such, that it serves for the calcium soap forming in case of hard water, to be kept finely dispersed and to prevent it from being deposited on the laundry.
At temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F), the product changes becoming slightly more solid and cloudy; a phase which will pass, however, once the product is exposed to warmth and by shaking it lightly, if necessary.
Soap made from vegetable oils has one outstanding feature, compared to all the other active washing substances, namely that, right after its use, it reacts chemically with the limescale always present in waste water forming calcium soap, thus neutralising its surfactant effect on aquatic organisms (primary degradation). The calcium soap is then, by microorganisms, 100% degraded into carbon dioxide and water (secondary degradation). Ethanol is infinitely miscible with water and reintegrates into the natural cycle within a few hours. Despite the fact that during the manufacturing of sugar surfactants, constituents are being extracted from the plant-based raw materials, i.e. starch, sugar, and fat, they remain completely intact in their natural molecular structure.

Sonett wool conditioner
SONETT S4721
Regular price $14.00After awhile we may notice our wool garments have lost some of their naturally water-repellant properties. This is because some of the lanolin, the natural sheep oil that performs this function, has been lost from washing and wearing.
This wool care agent contains wool grease, olive soap, sugar tenside, lecithin, botanical concentrator and natural essential lavender oil. The wool care agent softens woollen garments which have lost their natural oils in use (e.g. frequently washed nappy panties) and protects the wool fibre from premature wearing, allowing wool to better maintain its moisture-absorbing quality and softness.
Can be used in water up to 30 °C (86 °F).
120 ml.
The wool wax used is of pharmacopoeial quality. Thanks to the inclusion of olive-oil soap and sugar surfactant, Wool Care may also be used, without problems, in areas with hard-water.
The olive oil and the essential oil of lavender are 100% derived from certified organic cultivation.
For lipid replenishing of highly stressed garments made from wool and for woollen nappy pants.
Particularly important for babies’ woollen nappy pants which, due to the natural wool-wax content, collect the dampness from the diaper while still remaining permeable to air. If babies’ woollen nappy pants are washed, they lose their naturally occurring wool fat. Regular application of Wool Care replenishes the wool with the wool wax it needs for proper functioning.
Dissolve 1–2 tablespoon of Wool Care in hot water and fill up to approx. 1 litre (34 fl oz US) using cold water. Place the moistened woollen nappy pants into the lukewarm solution, wash through several times and leave to soak for about ½ to 1 hour. Rinse in lukewarm water, press out and leave to dry on a towel.
Dissolve ½ teaspoon of Wool Care in hot water and proceed as described above.
Wool Care can also be used in the washing machine. To this end, dissolve ½ teaspoonful of Wool Care in approx. 30–40 ml (1–1.4 fl oz US) of hot water and pour the solution into the fabric softener compartment of the washing machine.
Aqua, lanolin, potassium soap*, alkylpolyglucoside C8–C16 (coco glucoside), cetyl alcohol, polysaccharide (xanthan gum), sodium/potassium citrate, parfum*, linalool*
Wool wax is obtained from freshly shorn sheep’s wool that underwent a special process to remove any pesticide and herbicide residues. In order to be well dispersed in the water and to adhere to the fibres, the wool wax must be emulsified into fine droplets using olive-oil soap and sugar surfactant. Sugar, coconut oil and palm oil are the raw materials used to manufacture sugar surfactant. Olive soap results from the chemical reaction between olive oil and lye (alkaline solution). Olive oil is the best oil raw material for making mild lipid-replenishing plant-based soap. Its well-balanced composition of fatty acids, its healing balancing effect on the cardiovascular system, and the remarkable growth of the olive tree in a 7-year cycle are evidence of the special proximity and relationship of this oil to humans. Cetyl alcohol–obtained from palm oil – and the plant-based thickening agent enhance the emulsifying effect of sugar surfactant and olive oil soap.
The raw materials wool wax and cetyl alcohol are, in finely emulsified state, readily micro-biodegradable. Soap made from vegetable oils has one outstanding feature compared to all the other active washing substances, namely that, right after its use, it reacts chemically with the limescale always present in waste water, forming calcium soap, thus neutralising its effect on live organisms (primary degradation). The calcium soap is then, micro-organically, 100% degraded into carbon dioxide and water (secondary degradation). Despite the fact that during the manufacturing of sugar surfactants, constituents are being extracted from the plant-based raw materials starch, sugar, and fat, they remain completely intact in their chemical structure. For this reason it is so easy for the microorganisms to 100% decompose these surfactants into CO₂ und H₂O very rapidly. Soap, sugar surfactant, and cetyl alcohol are classified as being readily biodegradable according to OECD guidelines.
Suitable for septic tanks and filtration systems.

Disana lanolin conditioner
DISANA 2361000001
Regular price $12.50For easy "re-moisturizing" of wool diaper pants and other items made of virgin wool. Once dissolved in a water bath, the Disana lanolin treatment takes effect particularly quickly. So the natural wool wax reaches every single fiber and envelops them. Lanolin is an important ingredient, the "self-cleaning power" of wool articles and helps keep them clean and fresh just by airing them out.
Application: Shake well before use!
Refatting of woolen diaper pants:
Wool diaper pants with Disana wool shampoo wash instructions.
2 tablespoons of disana lanolin care treatment in 1 litre of lukewarm water (25°C).
Put the woolen diaper pants in the lanolin bath for just a short time and push them through slightly soaked. After removing excess water, squeeze out the lanolin bath slightly.
Not in the sun, not on the heater and not in the dryer on tumble dry even. Just laid out flat to dry in well-ventilated space.
Only wash new woolen diaper pants, if you like, and do not treat with lanolin care treatment initially, as sufficient natural lanolin is contained in the wool of new diaper pants. Therefore, an initial lanolin treatment is not necessary for new pants. Over time, from washing and absorbing moisture from pee and any other spills, the wool can lose some of its moisture-absorbing properties as it loses some lanolin content. Therefore, re-lanolinizing is for such cases.
Re-lanolinizing high-quality woolen clothing:
Dissolve 1 teaspoon Disana lanolin care treatment in 1 litre of water. Then as with wool diaper pants proceedings. Alternatively, in this same mixing ratio of water to lanolin, put in a spray bottle, and spray on the wool clothing.
Ingredients: lanolin, emulsifier, fatty alcohol, Citric Acid, Preservatives, Water
Fragrance-free, kind to the skin and the environment. Made without animal testing.

Preparing Herbal Teas:
Dried herbs have always been at the heart of herbalism. It is as herbal teas that we can best benefit from nourishing herbs. Extracts are used for quick, effective treatments with immediate results, whereas dried herbs get to the core and bring about long-term change. It is in this form that nutritional elements are most easily accessible and water is the best solvent to extract them.
A few basic rules will ensure good results with herbal teas. First and foremost, you must use high quality herbs. Herbs that are grown organically ensure that the soil they grow in contains all the nutrients they need to reach their highest medicinal potential. It also guarantees that you are not using wild-crafted herbs that can put endangered herbs in peril. Make sure your herbs are stored properly: keep away from air, light and heat so that they can keep for at least a year.
Preparing a good herb tea is simple. The first rule is to prepare the equivalent of a few cups at a time because one cup of boiling water will not stay hot long enough to extract the active principles of the herb. Prepare enough for 3 or 4 cups which you can drink throughout the day. To calculate how much herb to use, the basic rule is to use one tablespoon of dried herb per cup of water. This will make a tea which is sufficiently strong to be efficient but not too strong that it tastes bad. With time, you can adjust the quantity of herb you use to suit your taste and needs. Put the loose plants in a teapot or a French-press coffee maker (Bodum works well), pour boiling water on the herbs, cover and let steep for at least ten minutes. A rule of thumb is to let the herbs infuse until they sink to the bottom of the teapot and have cooled enough to drink. You can filter and drink it either hot, lukewarm or cold, straight or sweetened with honey. The tea will keep all day at room temperature to be taken throughout the day.

Home Grown Pantry
ISBN 9781612125787
Regular price $29.95by Barbara Pleasant
Whether selecting the right variety of pumpkin for pie filling or the best beets for easy pickling, Homegrown Pantry is the essential reference for planning a garden that produces the best varieties and the right amounts to stock the pantry and root cellar with a year-round supply of 55 favorite vegetables.
You want to enjoy your bounty year-round, right? Homegrown Pantry picks up where beginning gardening books leave off, with in-depth profiles of the 55 most popular crops — including beans, beets, squash, tomatoes, and much more — to keep your pantry stocked throughout the year. Each vegetable profile highlights how many plants to grow for a year’s worth of eating, and which storage methods work best for specific varieties. Author Barbara Pleasant culls tips from decades of her own gardening experience and from growers across North America to offer planting, care, and harvesting refreshers for every region and each vegetable.
