The company, founded by Josh Kilmer-Purcell and Brent Ridge, finds its roots in the spa community of Sharon Springs, New York. While on a weekend getaway in their rural property, the duo stumbled upon this historic namesake farm built over 200 years ago. The Beekman Boys were instantly inspired by its bucolic setting and township of hardworking farmers and artisans.
Josh and Brent began their venture with a herd of 100 goats from the neighboring farm who was facing a difficult time. They started to produce goat milk soaps using fresh milk from the farm and the rest, as you can say, was history.
