Shepherd’s Dairy 4 Ewe Products Provide Natural Moisturizing, Healing Option


Beverly Trew is a Registered Nurse who appreciates the purity and healing properties of all-natural products. That’s why she has always loved Shepherd’s Dairy 4 Ewe’s lotions and soaps.

When the company’s founder, Kim Curtis, was ready to sell her sheep-milk soap business 10 years ago, Beverly decided to take action and purchase the Anselmo-based business.

“It is a good product, and it’s natural,” Beverly said.

Sheep milk has the highest butter fat of any animal milked (besides water buffalo), Beverly explains. The sheep milk is an effective and softening skin cleanser that leaves the skin silky smooth with a hydrated appearance.

“It’s moisturizing,” Beverly said. “It’s healing. It helps sun damaged skin. It just feels so different than other lotions. It’s thicker and richer.”

Beverly purchases the milk from a sheep herd in Bushnell near the Wyoming border and makes all the products herself with lots of help from family, including her eight grandchildren.


She enjoys owning a business that allows her to create and sell the products, and she enjoys working alongside her family and grandchildren teaching them important business and life lessons. Beverly continues to work as an RN while making and selling Shepherd’s Dairy products.

Shepherd’s Dairy products include soaps and lotions, milk baths, lip balms, foamers, and shaving mugs and shaving soaps. She even makes a line of kids’ soaps, lotions and lip balms called the Little Lamb Collection that are great baby gifts. Her Hope Collection honors cancer patients, and 10 percent of the income from all purchases are donated to the American Cancer Society.

The Shepherd’s Dairy lotions, which come in 13 fragrances (including unscented), are the best sellers.

The products can be purchased from the Shepherd’s Dairy website, or GROW Nebraska store in Kearney, from GROW Nebraska's BuyNebraska.com store and eBay store, or from GROW Nebraska member Prairie Grounds Cafe in Broken Bow.

College Trip to Peru Sparks World-Changing Nebraska Soap Business

Six years ago, Andrew Vrbas was a budget-strapped college student making soap in his college apartment. He had an idea for a business that would help change the lives of people around the world. After just five years in business, his Pacha Soap Co™ enterprise is already doing that. The business that he and his wife, Abi, started in Hastings in 2013 has donated 3.4 million bars of soap to people in developing countries, has created 256 jobs in Nebraska and around the world, has provided 74,078 children with hand-washing education and has created wells to provide 4,000 people with clean water. And in 2017, Whole Foods honored Pacha Soap with its 2017 Supplier of the Year award. It all started with Andrew’s 2010 trip to Peru. “As a junior in college, I didn’t know that a trip to volunteer for others would ignite a life change in me,” Andrew said. “My trip took me to Peru, South America, to volunteer at a local school and then later on, a local constructio...
