Prepping for growth. We take our commitment to provide our customers with quality essential oils seriously, but did you know that process begins before the seeds are even planted? Before we start growing botanicals, we test the soil, water, and even the air to ensure our sprouts have a happy, healthy growing environment. When we say Seed to Seal®, we mean it!

Seeds. Quality essential oils come from high-quality plants, so we take care to handpick our seeds and starts with love. Each seed is examined to see if it has high levels of bioactive compounds. Once we’re certain our pick has the potential to produce pristine essential oils, it’s ready to go into the fields and greenhouses.

Conservation techniques. Not only are we serious about providing essential oils, we are also passionate about keeping the earth and land we use healthy and vibrant for generations to come. This is why our farms emphasize sustainable growing and harvesting techniques like compsting woodchips and revolving cooling systems. Farming, if not done right, can deplete the land and leave it unable to grow future crops. Our global farms work to make sure we’ll be able to produce essential oils for generations to come by protecting Mother Nature.

Farming friends. Even when our plants come from partner farms, we make sure that we’re giving you the best of nature! Partner farms are verified to match our rigorous Seed to Seal benchmarks, so each oil is always made with unbeatable quality.
