North Thompson Communities Foundation
We provide a pathway to support and address social challenges, inequalities and that improve the well-being of all who reside throughout the North Thompson Valley and surrounding areas.
At the time, the North Thompson Valley was host to several large logging companies, Weyerhaeuser being the largest. For what ever reason, Weyerhaeuser decided to leave the valley. Hence, a few community minded people approached the management and suggested they leave a legacy for the valley. They suggested that a foundation be created and invited the company to be part of this as their legacy. The company believed in this concept and offered $50,000 to get the foundation started.
Community is who we are...

Little Willow Goat Soap & Candle Company
My name is Jordyn, I am a wife & a mama to 4 beautiful children
I believe in keeping things simple, using quality locally sourced ingredients, while keeping our products affordable for our customers.
I make each product by hand in small batches so I can pay attention to each little detail.
Little Willow Goat Soap & Candle Co. aspires to create relaxing and skin nourishing moments with handcrafted farm fresh goat milk soaps and wood wick soy wax candles.
Our soaps are packed with farm fresh, unpasteurized goat milk (from our very own Nigerian Dwarf goats!) in every bar of soap. Our soap is easily absorbed into the skin and loaded with alpha hydroxy acids and vitamins A, B12, B6, C, and E to provide intense hydration and promote glowing skin.
Goats milk is not only nourishing on the skin and healthful to consume, it is also very aromatic and beautifully creamy in color. You can enjoy its natural beauty and aroma in my handcrafted goat's milk wood wick soy wax candles.
Wood wick candles are more attractive because of their classic yet enthralling style and unique design that perfectly mimics an outdoor campfire.
If you would like to know more about our soaps or candles, please contact Jordyn Muri at (250)574-8020. You can contact Jordyn for custom creations as well.
