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.

Our Story | GROW Nebraska Member, Simply Sunflower

Article by Sierra Forrest, Direct of Marketing & Sales, Simply Sunflower So many people ask, "how did Simply Sunflower begin?" That has to be one of my favorite questions to answer. I am extremely proud of our excellent product, but that doesn't compare to the pride I feel for my family - the roots which grew this company! We're a family business and family is right where our Simply Sunflower story began. From a humble beginning, my dad, Alan Koelling or Farmer Al as some people call him, started driving a tractor as soon as his feet could reach the pedals. His dad owned a farm and ranch near Ord, Nebraska that had been passed down from his father. The Koellings had come as immigrants from Germany and settled in Nebraska thanks to the Homestead Act of 1862. The original land and farming business has been in the Koelling family for the past 120 years! The soil is rich in history and heritage and our family has always been filled with pioneers and innovators....
