About Us

SoyLights®... owned and operated by an Iowa farm family

I am a stay-at-home mom who lives and works on an Iowa farm with my husband and our 5 children.  We are a farm family who grow soybeans and corn.  At this time our kids are too young to do much on the farm, except ride with in the tractors or combines.

We started "SoyLights®" because of my love for candles.  My husband, Mike, was sold on the "new" use for soybeans.  We make our SoyLights® candles ourselves on our rural Iowa farm.  Of course, the kids love this and always want to help make candles. 

We invite you to look around our web site and learn the benefits of Soy candles.  If you are have never tried soy candles and you love candles, I know that you will love these even more.  If you have tried soy, I hope you will give ours a try and let me know what you think.

Also, I want to tell you about our soy lotion and soy soap.  Good friends of mine make the lotion and soap for me.  I have actually spent quite a bit of time with them helping and watching them make these great products.  I would highly recommend both products for everyone.  The lotion feels great and really helps with dryness.  The soap is all I use also. Our all natural handmade soap is produced using cold batch processing which creates natural glycerine.

Thank you for your time and I hope you enjoy our web site and will try our great SoyLights® Candles in your home soon.

Any questions you might have I'd be happy to answer them for you. Email me at melanie@SoyLights.com.
