About This Item

For protection against the ravages of weather extremes, time and nature, farmers know a secret for soothing and healing cracked, rough and chaffed skin. Farmers also share the benefits of this secret with their livestock. Actually it was developed first for barnyard creatures. Bessie the prized Guernsey can attest to the soothing relief that derives therefrom. Yessiree folks, were talkin’ about the balm down on the farm, udder balm, also known as bag balm. Either way, it’s loaded with lanolin and germ resistant emollients. The thick salve provides relief for chapped areas and superficial abrasion while creating a glissening barrier against the encroachment of germs and harmful bacteria. This old time remedy is a staple at the farmhouse, ranch house and around the barnyard.

    Picked this one up just because it was too unique! I've used the bag balm for years on my hands from back in the days when I was surveying the hills of Tennessee with a great bunch of old farmer types.
