... PLEASE never stop making this...this is the most AMAZING
For many years I endured cracked skin on my fingers and feet, but Gramp Lyford's salve has done wonders for the past several years since I started using it. No more cracked and bleeding skin! This is a wonderful product!

"I am an ER nurse, so I wash my hands literally hundreds of times each day & also use drying alcohol based hand sanitizer frequently in between. As you can imagine, hospital soaps are extremely harsh. My hands were so chapped & painful! I had tried MANY brands of lotions over the years & found each time that if a lotion was moisturizing enough it would be too greasy for me to put gloves on for 5-10 minutes---time I definitely don't have to waste in the ER!! For a while I would occasionally try another lotion or receive one as a gift, but nothing ever came close to being as soothing & protective as Gramp Lyford's Salve! Also, Gramp's is scent-free which I love & I don't have to worry that it might cause any of my patients breathing issues.
I no longer even bother with any other lotions or creams; a little dab of Gramp's & one of the most important organs in my body (the integumentary system) is protected--so it can protect me!! Thank you Gramp Lyford's!!!!
P.S. If there's a nurse in your life..get them a tube of Gramp's! I guarantee they'll love it & find it a very thoughtful gift! =)"

What a wonderful skin product you have made - and it ain't just for farmers and fishermen!!.
I am a womam, have horses, and am outside most of the time in the wind and weather.
I bought this in a Feed Store, not knowing the product personally- but I know that the listed INGREDIENTS are excellent for skin hydration.
I couldn't be happier.

Gorham, ME

We just watched "Nosey Parker" again! Love that movie; George Lyford truly stole the show! I see his hands and think how appropriate to name the salve after him. My grandfather was a dairy farmer, also. I highly recommend Gramp Lyford's salve AND the movie "Nosey Parker"!

....Once again, great stuff! Hope you enjoyed the time you spent in N.C. Best wishes!

My father and uncle both turned me on to your unbelievable product. I am a prefessional chef and restaurant owner and your salve has saved my livelyhood. If I could help and pass this on to my customers, I would jump at thechance

I am wondering if you have samples or brochures that I could have for my patients. I am a Family Nurse Practitioner and work with people living with diabetes. Your country salve is the best product I have found for callused, cracked feet. If so please send some my way so I can share this wonderful product with my patients. Thank you

I just wanted to let you know, I absolutely love your product. I especially like how it doesn't have a greasy feel, and how in makes my hands feel so soft. Thank you for developing such a great product.

I had to write and tell you that your lotion is the ONLY thing that has worked on my dry heels. I have always had problems with dry, cracked feet. I bought your lotion b/c it has urea in it and my doctor said to look for that ingredient. It has made my feet sandal ready without worrying what people are thinking about my dry heels. Thank you! It's amazing!

HI FOLKS! JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU THAT I LOVE YOUR PRODUCT. I HAVE SUFFERED FROM CRACKED HANDS FOR YEARS. IT STARTS IN SEPTEMBER AND LASTS THROUGH MAY. I WAS GIVEN A SAMPLE OF YOUR PRODUCT BY OUR LOCAL PHARMACY AND WAS ANXIOUS TO TRY IT, AS I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR A PRODUCT THAT REALLY WORKS. WITHIN THREE DAYS OF USING YOUR PRODUCT, MY HANDS ARE HEALED!!!! I LOOK FORWARD TO A WINTER OF NO PAIN. THANKS SO MUCH FOR DEVELOPING THIS AMAZING SALVE.

Hey guys,
I decided to try Gramp Lyford's this weekend to heal a cracked thumb. This stuff is amazing. It only took two days to close up and heal over. Thanks.

I came to know George, Fred and all the other fine folks in the Tunbridge area through John O'Brien's films. When I saw Nosey Parker in Concord last year, I had no idea that George had passed away until the dedication at the end of the movie. Please accept my deepest sympathies. I'm so glad that John was able to immortalize these wonderful people for all the world to know.

Did you know we had a Bennington in NH?

Thank you very much for sending the salve. My hands have never been happier!

I received a sample of your salve at a Senior's Fair a week ago and after using this salve, I find that I really like it. Could I please have information as to where it is available to purchase.
AL, Lewiston, ME

thank you for your product!! i was a little skeptical at first (i've tried MANY other hand creams- none of which helped) but your hand salve helped my dry, cracked & bleeding hans (for being so chapped) clear up within 1 week of using your product!! what a great product!! thank you!!
PW, Lexington, MA

Thank you for such a great product! My hands are sore from the winter weather and just after a couple treatments feel much better!

I just wanted to let you know how much I LOVE Gramp Lyford's Salve! My job as a professional nanny, requires that I wash my hands frequently. Nothing I tried could heal my dry, cracked hands. Also, I found most lotions/salves objectionable because they had a strong fragrance.
Coincidentally, my sister, living in Lancaster, NH mailed me a tube of salve at Christmas. I decided to give it a try and am glad I did! My hands feel and look so much better! Now I am trying it on my rough dry feet.
Thank You for your product.

P.S. We loved the movie "Nosey Parker"! My sister sent that too!

For over 30 years I've been guiding fishermen in pursuit of salmon and trout on bodies of water within the state of New Hampshire. More than a fair amount of my charters are bookings for "Ice-out" salmon fishing.....It seems that it only takes 3 to 4 days of having your hands in cold water before "weather cracks" begin to appear at the ends of your fingers.
Finding Gramp Lyford's Salve was as good, if not better than finding the "magic lure" that will catch fish at any time under any conditions.
Keep up the good work and you can rest assured that I won't leave the dock without it.

I have dry skin that peels and cracks all the time, sometimes my fingers are so sore I cannot even type. Since I started using your salve, my hands are nearly 100% better.
This salve is the only thing I have found that really makes a difference in my hands. I am referring this salve to all my friends and workers.
