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.
