About
Gaia Herbs grows and manufactures organic herbal supplements from their farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. Founded in 1987, the company controls every stage of production from soil preparation through final product, cultivating over 5 million plants annually across 270 acres of Regenerative Organic Certified land. Their product line includes more than 200 items: liquid extracts, Liquid Phyto-Caps (a patented delivery system), functional powders, gummies, and teas designed to support specific health needs including immune function, digestion, stress response, sleep, and cognitive clarity.
Gaia's approach centers on what they call Full Spectrum Potency: extracting the entire range of a plant's beneficial phytochemicals rather than isolating single compounds, then concentrating them to a guaranteed potency level. This preserves the plant's complete chemical profile while ensuring consistent strength. Their on-site ISO-certified laboratory determines optimal harvest timing when phytochemicals peak, and every product undergoes rigorous testing for purity, potency, and absence of heavy metals, pesticides, and chemicals.
The company operates as a vertically integrated business, meaning they manage cultivation, harvesting, extraction, and manufacturing in-house. For ingredients they don't grow themselves, they source from global partners who meet their standards. All products use organic, non-GMO ingredients when available and are packaged in glass for quality and sustainability. Gaia holds B Corp certification, Regenerative Organic Certification, USDA Organic certification, and Non-GMO Project verification across their product line.
