Their story

FinchBerry Soapery started as a hobby for Ashley Robertson while she was working as a patent lawyer. Her background in biology and chemistry carried over neatly into soapmaking, and the hobby grew into a full business.

The company now works out of a large headquarters in Waldo, just outside Gainesville, with a team of about twenty. Along with soap bars, FinchBerry has added accessories and gifts after noticing that the shops carrying its soaps wanted more to pair with them.

How it's made

FinchBerry soaps are handcrafted, vegan and made without preservatives. Robertson drew on her chemistry training to develop the formulas.

It is amazing to realize how far we have come

Why we carry them

FinchBerry bars make an easy, cheerful gift and smell great in the bathroom. We like tucking one into a gift basket.
