Welcome to The Backyard Naturalists, the show about anything and everything connected with nature.

 In this episode of The Backyard Naturalists, hosts Debbie and Laurie sit down with Angie Gotta, the passionate owner of Barn and Bee Botanicals. Angie shares her inspiring journey from struggling with health issues to discovering the healing power of natural ingredients, which led her to create her own line of skincare and body care products. Using ingredients sourced from her farm in rural North Carolina, including goat's milk, tallow, and various herbs, Angie crafts everything from soothing soaps to effective insect repellents.

You'll learn about the medicinal properties of common "weeds" and the benefits of using natural ingredients in personal care products.
