We grow or responsibly wildcraft plants for our products to create moments of connection to the natural world through the simple ritual of washing and bathing.
ALTR creates hand-made bar soap with local, wildcrafted botanicals. We seek to change popular soap culture (i.e., alter) by offering products that showcase local plants, and, in this way, elevate (i.e., put on an altar) the seemingly mundane task of washing oneself into a ritual reconnection to the land that sustains us.
All of the main botanical elements are grown or responsibly wildcrafted by us and then brewed into a nourishing infusion that acts as a base for each bar.
Our soap is 100% natural, made with organic ingredients, palm oil free and vegan. We make each product with great care and hope that our soap will inspire people to take care of themselves and reincorporate the natural world back into their daily rituals.
