The Himalaya is an aromatic treasure chest. To ensure rural communities benefit, our herbs are sustainably gathered from community-owned forest groups whenever possible. Located in Kathmandu, Nepal, we contribute to women's and rural economic development in Nepal through the wholesale export of herbal products. The Himalayan region is a vast storehouse of medicinal and aromatic plants, which have been used by indigenous people for healing and ritual purposes since ancient times. Fresh and pungent, the herbs we use are carried down from the Himalayas by knowledgeable caretakers of the world's most prolific herb garden. Wild Earth's founders have studied the traditional uses of Himalayan plants extensively.We have created a range of products drawing upon these ancient traditions to bring the benefits of these herbs to a wider audience.

Wild Earth is committed to designing and marketing innovative and creative products utilizing natural herbal forest products from Nepal. Our herbs are sustainably gathered from community-owned forests and private farms.
