Ida's Soap Box

The USDA has developed a three-tier system for labeling certified organic products. Although you may see many different "organic" logos, symbols, and badges on products, signs, and websites, there are only two that have any real meaning. They are the circular "USDA Organic" logo and the logo from a USDA accredited certifying agency.

We are excited to announce that our full line of natural organic skin and hair care products is available in our Downtown Cleveland Store in the 5th Street Arcades. These century-old shopping arcades are unique architectural landmarks filled with unique, local retail shops, and a fun food court.

When you need soap, body wash or household cleaners, do you reach for products labeled “antibacterial?” Consumers often believe that antibacterial products are more effective at preventing the spread of germs, but there is no scientific evidence that they are more effective than plain soap and water. In fact, some data suggests that antibacterial ingredients may do more harm than good over the long-term.
