We aim to bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science through sustainable harvesting practices that protect both Sea Buckthorn’s longevity and the well-being of the land. Our approach is guided by a deep respect for nature and the communities that depend on it.
Every step of our process is carried out with meticulous care. Rigorous quality control measures are implemented by a team of dedicated scientists, farmers, and researchers who ensure that each Sea Buckthorn product meets the highest international standards.
Sea Buckthorn collection has been an important activity in the cold desert region of Ladakh since 2001. The local population, especially women, directly benefit from the harvesting of this golden berry. This creates not only a source of income, but also a sustainable livelihood rooted in tradition, resilience, and empowerment. We believe that responsible foraging can regenerate both ecosystems and economies. By preserving traditional practices and promoting fair partnerships, we help ensure that sustainability remains at the core of everything we do.
Our vision for sustainability goes beyond a single plant or location. Many of our products are foraged and sourced from the Trans-Himalayan region, a vast, ecologically rich corridor stretching across Ladakh and the high-altitude cold deserts of the Indian Himalayas.
This region is one of the most extreme environments on Earth, where temperatures range from -43°C in winter to +40°C in summer. Despite these challenges, the area is home to hardy, nutrient-dense plants like Sea Buckthorn that flourish in the wild and enrich the soil by fixing nitrogen. These characteristics make the region a crucial zone for ecological restoration and sustainable development.
The Trans-Himalayas also hold deep cultural and medicinal significance. Many of the plants found here have been used for centuries in Ayurvedic, Amchi (Tibetan), and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Their resilience translates into remarkable therapeutic potency.
By responsibly sourcing from this region, we not only bring you some of the world's most powerful botanicals, but we also contribute to the preservation of fragile ecosystems and indigenous knowledge that have thrived in harmony with nature for generations.
