That Barnyard Chick Herb Infused Branding Balm

Herb Infused Branding Balm

Capturing Eight Weeks of Eastern Washington Sunshine In the heart of our Eastern Washington farm, time moves a little differently. We believe that the best skin remedies aren’t manufactured in a high-speed lab; they are grown in the soil and cured by the sky. The Herb Infused Branding Balm is the crown jewel of the That Barnyard Chick line, born from a fifteen-year tradition of farmstead apothecary. We start with premium cold-pressed olive oil and pack it with a potent blend of organic herbs—comfrey, calendula, chamomile, chaparral, and lavender. Then, we let the sun do the heavy lifting. For a minimum of eight weeks, these jars sit in the warmth of the sun, shaken daily, slowly extracting every soothing compound until the oil glows with herbal energy.

Herb Infused Branding Balm: A Tender Touch for Your Smallest Ranchers This isn’t a stiff, waxy ointment that drags against irritated skin. We’ve formulated Branding Balm to be exceptionally soft and tender enough for the smallest members of the family. The moment it touches a warm finger, it melts into a silky, breathable veil. Whether it’s a toddler’s “playground brand” from a tumble in the grass or a stubborn, itchy rash, this balm glides on without friction, providing immediate comfort to the skin. You’ll catch the subtle, calming aroma of sun-warmed chamomile and lavender—a scent that signals relief is on the way.

Herb Infused Branding Balm: Rooted in the Farm, Guided by Nature At That Barnyard Chick, our philosophy is simple: use what the land provides. This balm features a powerhouse lineup of botanicals. Comfrey and Calendula act as nature’s “skin knitters” for minor surface abrasions, while Chamomile and Lavender target the frantic “itch” associated with rashes and scrapes. We’ve also included Chaparral, a rugged botanical protector, and bound it all together with golden beeswax sourced from our neighboring hives. It is a thick, nutrient-dense hug for skin that has seen better days.

The Barnyard Chick Standard: From our early days on the goat farm to the handcrafted batches we pour today, our mission remains the same: providing honest, farm-to-skin care that you can trust on your children and yourself. Herb Infused Branding Balm is a staple for the diaper bag, the gardening apron, and the bedside table. It helps with the persistent itching of dry patches and the sting of minor scratches, ensuring that “life on the farm” (or the backyard) doesn’t have to leave a lasting mark.

Herb Infused Branding Balm Ingredient Highlights & Benefits

• Sun-Infused Olive Oil: Steeped for 60+ days in the sun to ensure maximum herbal potency.

• Organic Comfrey & Calendula: Farm-favorite herbs known for their incredible ability to soothe redness and support skin recovery.

• Organic Chamomile & Lavender: This floral duo provides a “deep breath” for angry skin, specifically targeting the discomfort of itchy rashes.

• Organic Chaparral: A resilient herb that provides a layer of antioxidant protection for minor surface irritations.

• Local Beeswax: Sourced from neighboring Washington apiaries, it creates a soft, breathable barrier to lock in moisture and herbal goodness.

Greencastle Heritage & Craftsmanship

For over 35 years, Greencastle has been a steward of traditional craftsmanship, and the That Barnyard Chick line is a vital part of that legacy. Originating 15 years ago on a working hobby farm in Eastern Washington, this line was built on the principle of utilizing what can be grown or foraged right outside the barn door. From our roots in Wallace, Idaho, to our current home in Spokane Valley, Washington, we remain dedicated to sustainable quality. Whether working with raw goat’s milk, local lard, or sun-cured herbs, every product is a handcrafted testament to our 30-year history of excellence and our deep connection to the Pacific Northwest land.
