Our ‘Earth First’ motto drives us to source herbs sustainably and with longevity in mind for the ecosystem. We work closely with small-batch, independent, local farmers and foragers; these folks remember the ancient wisdom and respect the intrinsic nature of the herbs and the lore that surrounds them. These foragers understand the wisdom of leaving the ecology intact and thriving for the future. These local farmers know where to grow the herbs to have as little impact on the land as possible, while regenerating the soils.
This stuff is integral to all our futures, and we know that participating in eco-minded farming contributes to keeping the integrity of tonic herbalism alive. Through this practice, we are contributing to the preservation of the ancient tonic herb tradition, so future generations have access to the ancient wisdom that has kept humans healthy for the millennia.
Here I am with Mrs. Wujie, one of our independent farmers who is showing me the process of thanking that Mountain Spirit after each harvest (it takes 3 bows 😉⛰🍁). Gosh it’s fun bringing ancient tonic herbalism to the world.
