At 72, Lois Inman and her family have already invested $191,000 ($114k cash + $77k solar financing) plus contributed owned land to build something that matters. We're 75% of the way there - transforming 30 acres in Grantsburg into Southern Illinois's first energy-independent agritourism destination. This final community raise helps us complete our vision: creating rural jobs, preserving four generations of soap-making wisdom, and proving rural America deserves investment.

But here's the thing: We urgently need your help in the next 48 hours to unlock additional potential on HoneyComb.

The Heart of Our Heritage: Grandmother Della's Legacy

In the rolling hills of Southern Illinois, Grandmother Della was more than just a matriarch—she was the bedrock upon which four generations learned that true wealth isn't measured in dollars but in the love you pour into your work and community. Teaching Sunday school for forty years, pressing bars of handmade goat milk soap into the hands of struggling neighbors, and opening her farmhouse kitchen to anyone who needed a meal, Della lived the truth that giving from what little you have creates abundance for everyone. She taught five-year-old Lois the ancient alchemy of soap-making not as a quaint hobby but as sacred knowledge—that patience, quality, and care transform simple ingredients into something that heals. When six-year-old Joshua nearly burned down the house in an ambitious cooking experiment, it was Della who channeled that dangerous curiosity into disciplined craft, teaching him that excellence comes not from talent but from respecting your materials and honoring the process. Every bar of Gilded Goat beauty melt, every moment of hospitality at Bone + Bear Farms, carries forward Della's fundamental lesson: when you put love into your work, people can feel it, and that feeling ripples through generations like stones cast into still water.
