🧼 stellacreeksoap is coming back to the Autumn Leaves Festival for its 10th straight year! This three-generation family business creates handmade soaps, lotions, salves, bath salts and more using high-quality, natural ingredients, with many herbs grown right on their nine-acre farm.

Named in honor of Carolyn Price’s grandmother Stella, who made soap the old-fashioned way from scratch, the family continues that tradition today with plenty of creativity mixed in.

Stop by their booth and stock up on a few favorites October 9–11 in downtown Mount Airy!
