Certified Organic and Ecologically Wildcrafted Herbs
Jackie Greenfield, MS, Botanical Division Manager, purchases herb from other certified organic growers as well as the very finest and ecologically sensitive wild crafters. Indigenous growers and wild crafters are chosen by Jackie from around the world in remote places such as Vanuatu for our Kava Kava, Manchuria in Northern China for our Schizandra Berry, Ligustrum Berry, Eleuthero Root, and Licorice Root, the Himalayan mountain regions of northern India for our Holy Basil and Green Tea, and the Jamaican bush for our Sarsaparillia, Jamaican Dogwood, and Blue Ring Ginger. Prior to every raw material procurement round we first obtain samples from approved growers and wild crafters. Samples are analyzed and validated for identity, purity, and strength through both organoleptic and quantitative HPLC (High Pressure Liquid Chromatography) methods.
