Private Oaks was founded by lifelong friends Clayton Schenk and Shane Powell, whose shared upbringing on farms in south-central Nebraska instilled values of hard work, honesty, and respect for the land, along with a belief that luxury and integrity can coexist. Drawing on backgrounds in agriculture, psychology, business, and fitness, they set out to create clean, high-quality soaps after growing frustrated with everyday products filled with synthetic ingredients. Crafted with organic oils, natural clays, and mineral salts, each bar reflects their commitment to health, transparency, and accessibility—offering premium, all-natural products made with purpose, patience, and a distinct sense of Nebraska pride.

I need to start by saying I am a soap skeptic. When I ordered 1 bar of each to support two guys from my hometown starting a new business. I AM SO GLAD I DID!! I showered with the Vanilla Bonfire, and Oh My Goodness: I am hooked!! The fragrance is subtle, but lasting even after I am dried off and dressed. The silky lather is clean and not heavy, like my more expensive body wash. I shaved my legs and my razor just glided over and left such a smooth feeling. When I rinsed my body off I noticed how clean I actually felt! I did not feel like it had lotions or chemicals on my skin. I could almost squeak if I wasn't so soft! When I rinsed out my washcloth, it did not have the heavy feeling, like usual, of still being filled with soap. It was clean and light. I dried off and my skin was so soft. And I could still smell the Vanilla Bonfire! Something I like in a soap. Subtle but there! It is now 4 hours later and my skin is still just as soft and smells just as wonderful!!! I HIGHLY recommend this line of soaps if you are looking for a clean, luxurious feeling after your shower or bath!!
This is my absolute favorite bay rum scent. The fact that it is also a fantastic shampoo and soap makes it the perfect trifecta. Well done, Ogallala!
This deodorant works great all day!
We wanted something light and it is ! Great price and love the sunglasses screened on front.. order came fast too… we are very pleased 😄
My favorite scent.
Was disappointed in this popcorn. Tons of hulls and rubbery texture. Popped with veg oil and in an air popper
Loved it! It was a huge hit at our Pink Out celebration!
I’ve searched for a long time to find a Belgian waffle mix that delivers that distinct restaurant-quality crispness, and Heartland Gourmet Belgian Waffle Mix finally checks all the boxes. The waffles come out golden with that perfect crisp on the edges while staying soft and fluffy inside. It is the closest I have come to recreating that classic Belgian waffle taste and texture at home, and it is absolutely worth it.
Such a user friendly, mom friendly, easy to do cookbook either recipes that make dinner a breeze! Lots of good go to's! My husband is THE pickiest eater and every recipe so far he has loved! And makes for beautiful countertop display!
Beautiful photos, readable recipes, and delicious results! Makes a terrific gift, too.
Friends in Alaska from Nebraska going without Dorothy, supply chain gets bad in the winter up there. Pleasantly surprised at the low shipping cost. This made for big smiles and friendship perks👍
