I am a Watkins Rep and I love chatting with folks about the Watkins man. There are so many wonderful stories out there about how people enjoy Watkins Products and the folks who used to deliver them. I love the story of Bill Porter who worked his 50-plus year career with Watkins; his story of working �door-to-door� with cerebral palsy inspired countless news stories and a television movie. Do you have a favorite Watkins Product or a great story to share? I also like to post stories on my web site to share with others. Please let me know if it is okay to share your story.

Watkins Products

Thank you

I used to be a Watkins rep a few years ago. I gave some Watkins to my husban's 84 year old aunt and she said, "Oh, I remember Watkins from back on the farm!" She loved it.

I was a Watkins Rep for a few years and I really miss all those wonderful opportunities it provided - not to mention the valuable service I was able to give to my family and friends who all love the Watkins Products!

I remember when I was little that we visited my Grandparents every Sunday for a family Supper. The whole family, aunts, uncles, cousins (at least 40 people) were always there! Grandma's kitchen smelled like vanilla, cinnamon, cloves and all those other wonderful Watkins aromas - it was heavenly! My sister and I used to sneak into Grandma's pantry and open the bottles of the different flavors, just to smell them. Grandma knew we would do that and always managed to have a few freshly baked cookies for us in there. Wonderful memories!


Walk in Peace and Harmony.
