Our Growing Partners
For those cultivated herbs we can’t grow ourselves, we procure directly from other certified organic farmers who we personally know, and trust to “do it right.”

To continually expand on our repertoire of medicinal herbs, Herb Pharm’s founder, Ed Smith, personally travels throughout the world in search of new medicinal herbs and knowledge of their traditional uses. Ed’s enviable job has taken him to such exotic places as the remote Pacific islands of Vanuatu in search of Kava root, to a 16,000-foot high Peruvian altiplano sourcing Maca root, and to the foothills of the Himalayas to procure Darjeeling Green Tea.
