Herbal medicines are only as effective as the quality of the herbs from which they are made. When Ed Smith and Sara Katz founded Herb Pharm in 1979 they understood as herbalists this basic principle and have never compromised in their efforts to provide the highest quality, most effective whole-herb healthcare products possible. They know that producing effective herbal extracts that enable people to affect positive changes in the quality of their health is based on diligent study and understanding of traditional herbal medicine, as well as modern herbal sciences.

Herb Pharm grows most of its herbs on their own certified organic farm which is only two miles from their modern manufacturing facility. This enables them to control every aspect of production: from the soil and seed, to the herb extraction, to the finished product shipped to its customers. They hand-harvest our herbs at their peak of potency and within minutes deliver them, fresh and succulent, to the manufacturing facility for prompt extraction. For those herbs that they can't grow themselves, they purchase directly from other certified organic herb farms whose owners they know personally and trust.
