I am, Ms V, Owner/OPERATOR of the Garnet Rose Soap Company. I make it, sell it, market the sales, ship it, you name it, I wear this hat for a reason. It has been such a great opportunity and blessing to be able to provide an all natural alternative to my customers for the past 7 years. When I left the School System as an Educational Interpreter for the Deaf, in Charlotte and headed for the hills here in Ashe County, NC with Kevin. The first words out of his mouth is that I needed to have a job. With that said, I created my own job, making all natural soap in December of 2013.
I am on the Board of Directors for the Blue Ridge Women in Agriculture in Boone, NC. I am also a mother of 3 daughters and 2 handsome, grandsons, along with Kevin's children, we have a big blended family.
Our company is based in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Ashe County in North Carolina. I am the brainchild of this dream to make soap and to be my own boss. I can say I truly love meeting all my customers and giving them a bar of soap that they really adore. It hasn't been easy coming to a new town and wanting to start a business, but, I am Ms. V, and my goal and vision is to be the best in whatever I do. So enough about me let's meet the rest of the crew, of course I could not do any of this without my staff!

Meet Kevin...
My wonderful better half, Co-Owner and Mad Scientist in training! Kevin at first knew nothing about making soap, with that said he has help me set up, break down, greet customers, made a batch of soap or two and he has followed me all over North Carolina to shows and festivals for the last few years.
Some days he is such a character, as you can see in the picture above at the Southern Women's show in Charlotte NC 2016. Celebrating our Award Ribbon of Best Exhibit in Show, out of at least 400 other exhibitors. He has been my everything when it comes to making soap and deciding what direction we will take next! Thanks for all you do Kevin I don't know where I would be without you!
Kevin is also the father of 2, a son, daughter n law, and a daughter and 2 beautiful granddaughters!
