Today we’d like to introduce you to April Harvey
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I started on my holistic pathway roughly a year ago We moved to a farm and after the prices of groceries and eggs skyrocket I thought it would be fun to learn how to garden and it was absolutely the greatest idea. Not long after that my husband was having some complications with his health and he was put on medication that in the long run, after doing extensive research would only harm him worse and not fix the problem but rather mask it. Now being faced with absurd grocery prices and unimaginable irreversible damage due to pharmaceuticals .I decided it was time to listen because I believe God has said to me that I need to protect my family by researching and making our own goods . I started with vegetables and have worked with herbs for medicinal purposes and now have moved to health and beauty . Making tallow soaps , lotions , scrubs, dish soaps , deodorants candles with zero chemicals etc . This past year has transformed me so much that I decided to go back to school for Hollistic Practioner and Hollistic nutrition . God has changed my life in the past year with guidance and faith and I can’t wait to share with others what I have learned and teach others the importance of learning your surroundings and the health benefits that has been placed in things such as a sweet gum seed . The next generation needs to know you can make everything you need all the way to the medicines we take and the food we eat and be bountiful .
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Smooth , not so much but not enough to stop me . The harder the struggle the more determination I have. I have the best support system and without them I would have given up probably but the endeavors just keep coming with each complete task or product comes a bigger one .
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I have opened up SunsetAcres Boutique and I specialize in all natural products made from Grass fed beef tallow . My products have as few as two ingredients. They are non toxic , safe and even edible .I am a faith based company because without my faith and without God putting the faith in me to do this and the patience I couldn’t do it. I know with each product I sell I can share the word of God with people and if it’s just one person then I did what I was placed here for I got to tell
Someone how good my God is . I sell non toxic lip balms , candles and wax melts with zero additives non carsenagenic , no chemicals . Tallow whippped lotion that has double collagen and loaded with vitamins and minerals .Deoderants that will not cause rash or irritation that’s all natural . Sunblock that has no chemicals no cancer causing agents all natural and safe for babies .All my products are shelf stable and natural . I believe what sets me apart from others is I’m here to make a difference not make a
Dollar
What quality or characteristic do you feel is most important to your success?
I am a Christian based company and with that I have made some great clients that turned into friends . I am here to learn from others as others learn from me . I am always smiling and ready for the next challenge . Late nights and early mornings are what I’m running on and I love the fact that we can survive without chemicals and willing to learn so I can help someone else is what I pride myself and my business on
