PRESS: Local Love Beer Soap Release


Teaming up with my buddies at JDub's Brewing Company wasn't just an excuse to hit my favorite local brewery.  It was the perfect pairing to kick off the "Local Love" soap (and collaboration) series I've been brainstorming since Wild Ginger Apothecary was an empty storefront.  Thanks to local soap guru's Lolablue, it resulted in a great artisan product.  Natural, small-batch, creative, quirky:  there's nothing quite like it in town, just like all of our businesses.  And the minty scent is so crisp you'll find yourself wanting to wash up just to use it.


As seen in This Week In Sarasota:

"Wild Ginger Apothecary, a Gulf Gate-based alternative and holistic health-and-beauty product supplier, has teamed up with the brewery for its first release as part of its collaborative Local Love soap series.  Handcrafted by Lolablue in North Port, the ginger-and-mint infused soap is made with JDub’s Poolside Kolsch instead of water..."

PRESS: Edible Sarasota's "Small Bites"

There's always the one magazine I can't recycle after reading: Edible Sarasota.  

Full of all things amazing in Sarasota: from food and drink, to small business, to epic photography.  Edible reads like a coffee table book that you can pick up again and again, yet still receive joy from.  It was a wish come true and a huge compliment to be featured in their gorgeous magazine before even hitting our first year.  They published a beautiful article about myself and Wild Ginger Apothecary, alongside some of the area's must-see spots... So now I have an even better reason to keep a copy around for years to come. 



As seen in Edible Sarasota: 

"Nicole believes that products should be sampled and tested before purchase and she always has fun goodies behind the counter such as morsels of spiced stone-ground chocolate or a top-selling natural deodorant or tiny vials of serum from the skincare line that she swears by. Nicole prides herself on weaning people off of chemically enhanced and animal-tested products by introducing them to natural alternatives that are just as, if not more, effective than their toxic counterparts."
