ETHICALLY &
SUSTAINABLY GROWN
We take pride in ethically and sustainably growing our ingredients. Our acres of native goldenrod provide not only healing plant medicine for humans but also abundant habitat for pollinators, spiders, lizards, and ground birds. These resilient plants require minimal care and resources, making them sustainable crops that contribute to a healthier planet.
All of our products are free of palm oil and palm oil derivatives.
HAND HARVESTED
& PROCESSED
We hand-harvest all of the botanicals we use, ensuring we never take more than we can process at a time. The same person who picks the goldenrod also dries it, infuses it into organic oil, and creates a nourishing salve just for you. We produce our goods in small batches to guarantee freshness.
FARMING FORWARD BY
THINKING BACKWARDS
At Slow Farm, we believe in farming forward by thinking backwards. Rather than viewing soil as a means to support farming, we see farming as an opportunity to restore and nourish our soil. We tackle environmental challenges by researching and implementing livestock and plant species that contribute to sustainable solutions.
This slow and sustainable method has allowed us to plant over 400 native herb, fruit, and nut plants on our 47-acre farm, promoting biodiversity and creating a resilient ecosystem that can also nourish our community.Native plants require no fertilizers or irrigation, as they have evolved to thrive in the local environment. This makes them highly sustainable food and wellness resources.
The non-native crops we grow, such as camellia sinensis, tulsi, and rosemary, are xerotolerant, meaning they can grow in hot and dry conditions.
HEALTH & ALLERGY
WARNINGS
For allergy concerns, please note that Slow Goods are produced in a facility that also handles various nut products. If you have never tried goldenrod, we recommend conducting a patch test before applying it widely. Additionally, if you have allergies to other members of the aster family (like sunflowers or daisies), this product may not be suitable for you.
