Fat and the Moon
Fat and the Moon is a LGBTQ+ woman-owned business based in Grass Valley, California on Nisenan land. Continuing a family legacy of herbalists and natural healers, founder Rachel Budde has built her company around providing handcrafted, herbal body care products to those seeking natural and effective alternatives to chemical-filled products. Like a witch over a cauldron, Budde experiments with age-old ingredients and recipes passed down from various healing traditions to craft innovatively simple products that are good for the body and the earth.
They make everything by hand, to order, and under one roof! They do not co-pack or outsource anything. They lovingly call their space the "coven", and that is where they conduct all aspects of their business, from operations to making to shipping. They do things a bit old school and differently, but they wouldn't have it any other way!
