Cindy O’Neill YesterYear Soap Company YesterYearSoap.com Dave and Cindy O’Neill founded YesterYear in 2001 with the purchase of several acres of land in Mississippi. The project included preserving and restoring several 150 year-old log cabins. During this ten year process, they developed an interest in the skill and the resourcefulness of our early settlers. This appreciation for craftsmanship led them to introduce hand crafted products from years gone by. This was the beginning of the YesterYear Soap Company. YesterYear soap is handmade and contains allnatural ingredients. The process and attention to detail reflects the way soap was made years ago.
