From Farm to Face: The Story Behind Our First-Ever Whipped Body Butter

We weren’t planning to launch a skincare line—until we couldn’t stop thinking about it.


At ARR FARM, we’re all about nourishment. Nourishment for your body, your family, and yes—your skin. The same deep care and intention we pour into our pastures, animals, and food went into every ounce of this new product. And now, for the first time ever, we’re bringing that to you… in a jar.


Just in time for Mother’s Day, we’re proud (and honestly, still a little giddy) to unveil our first-ever whipped tallow & lard body butter infused with vanilla and kelp. It’s simple. It’s rich. And it’s absolutely transformative.


This is not just a skincare product.


It’s farm-made skincare that begins in our pastures and ends with your skin glowing.


Let us take you behind the scenes—from spark to skin.


Why Skincare? Why Now?


We believe the best things come from the earth. And your skin deserves the same kind of love and attention you give to what goes on your plate. For years, our customers have asked if we made soaps, lotions, or salves. We always said “maybe one day.”


Then one day, we looked at what we already had:

  • Grass-fed, grass-finished beef tallow from animals nourished by sun, grass, and the quiet rhythm of nature—never fed conventional grain.

  • Pasture-raised pork lard from animals rotationally grazed through living pastures—rooting, roaming, and thriving with the land.

  • Organic kelp, rich in sea minerals

  • Vanilla for warmth, comfort, and calm


We realized—we were already holding skincare gold.


So we whipped it. Literally.


And something magical happened.


Why Tallow and Lard? Isn’t That… Cooking Fat?


Yes—and your great-grandma probably used it on her skin, too.


Grass-fed, grass-finished tallow is nearly bio-identical to the oils your skin naturally produces. It’s packed with fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)—a powerful anti-inflammatory. It’s deeply hydrating, helps restore the skin’s barrier, and works wonders for dry, cracked, or irritated skin.


Pasture-raised lard, especially from healthy, happy pigs like ours, brings a softer texture and additional skin-loving benefits. It’s full of vitamin D, healthy fatty acids, and has been used for centuries in traditional skincare.


The blend of tallow and lard offers a rich, indulgent texture that absorbs effortlessly, leaving behind a smooth, whipped finish that melts into the skin.


If you haven’t tried tallow and lard-based skincare yet, get ready to experience a richness that’s in a class of its own.


Why Kelp? Why Vanilla?


We chose kelp because the sea knows a thing or two about nourishment. This ocean-grown plant is a superfood for your skin—loaded with iodine, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids. It helps support collagen, soothe inflammation, and reduce redness.

It’s also naturally antimicrobial and improves skin elasticity. In short: it makes your skin happy.


Vanilla adds more than scent. It’s warm, grounding, and naturally rich in antioxidants. It helps fight free radicals and even has gentle antibacterial properties. But really—it’s about the experience. Vanilla wraps the entire formula in comfort.


How We Made It: The Process Behind the Jar


Every jar starts the same way all our products do: with care.


We rendered the tallow and lard by hand from grass-fed, grass-finished and pasture-raised animals. It’s a slow process—no shortcuts, no chemicals. Just low heat, time, and love. We filtered it multiple times to remove any impurities, then gently whipped it with our kelp and vanilla infusion. That part’s a little hypnotizing, by the way.


The result? A smooth, creamy, whipped butter that smells faintly of vanilla saltwater and sunshine, and melts into your skin.


We packaged it in simple, clean jars—nothing fancy, just the good stuff inside.


What Our Early Users Are Saying


Before releasing it to the world, we gave a few of our longtime supporters the chance to try it. Here’s what they said:


“It is excellent.”


“I absolutely love their body butter! Leaves my skin silky smooth and super hydrated throughout the whole day.”


We’ll be honest, we were glowing too (and not just from using it ourselves). This was confirmation that our pasture-to-skin approach had legs—and arms, and elbows, and heels.


Who It’s For (Hint: Everyone)


This jar of whipped goodness is for:

  • Moms who never treat themselves

  • Kids with dry cheeks from spring winds

  • Farmers with calloused hands

  • You, after a long shower, needing something better than that drugstore lotion


But What’s It Really Like?


Rich, luxurious, and wildly effective.


Our whipped tallow + lard body butter glides on smooth and melts right in—delivering deep, lasting hydration that leaves your skin feeling buttery soft and beautifully balanced.


It’s the kind of moisture your skin actually recognizes—because it’s made from ingredients your body already knows what to do with.


And the scent? A whisper of real vanilla with a touch of coastal calm—clean, light, and comforting. No essential oils here, just the pure essence of vanilla. If you’re looking for something with a little more aromatherapy, our lavender offers a soothing, spa-like experience, and sandalwood adds a warm, grounding richness. No synthetics, no fillers—just luxurious, whole ingredients your skin will love.


This isn’t just skincare. It’s skin nourishment, straight from the farm.


Why This Launch Matters to Us

It represents more than a new product. It’s our commitment to you—our community—that nourishment doesn’t end at the table. It begins on the farm, and it carries through everything we make.


It’s our first step into a skincare line that honors real ingredients and real people—the moms who give everything, the ones who care about what goes on their skin, and the families who believe clean living is worth it. Made for anyone who wants better—for themselves and the ones they love.


We’re not interested in chasing trends. We’re here to make the kind of skincare your great-grandma would’ve trusted—and your skin will thank you for.
