| Impact, special achievements & commitments | | | Gaia Herbs was founded in 1987 with the mission to bring people, plants, and planet together to create healing. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, our primary manufacturing site is also home to a 150-acre certified organic and ROC (Silver) Certified farm. As a Certified B Corporation®, we are actively working to build a more inclusive and sustainable economy. A seed-to shelf company, Gaia brings high standards at every stage of our process – from growing and sourcing organic and fairly traded herbs, testing ingredients for purity, potency, and integrity at every step of production and using only clean extraction methods and no artificial ingredients. Fair for Life has solidified our commitment as a company to fair employment practices at home and to building more just and sustainable economies in the communities where we work around the world. | ||||
