Husband-and-wife dairy farmers Blake and Carmen Gendebien have developed a line with what they’re calling a farm-to-bottle concept. Ingredients like raw milk, alfalfa, mint, cedar, red clover, lavender and wild flowers that come directly from the couple’s upstate New York Twin Mill Farms or from surrounding areas are highlighted in A Wholesome Glow’s products. Each item is handmade by Carmen on the farm, and the local Amish community pitches in to help with the brand’s packaging."
