What Gaia Herbs actually does
Gaia Herbs is a herbal supplement company founded in 1987, based in Brevard, North Carolina, where it operates its own 270-acre farm. In 2022, Gaia Herbs Farm became the first herbal supplements farm in the Southeast US to achieve Regenerative Organic Certified Silver status from the Regenerative Organic Alliance.
“With regenerative organic agriculture, we can rehabilitate soil, respect animal welfare, and improve the lives of farmers.”
Regenerative Organic Alliance
Where the regenerative farming shows up
- Gaia Herbs Farm: 270 acres in Brevard, North Carolina, growing 45 herb varieties
- Production scale: more than 5 million plants grown annually on-site
- Employee Vegetable Program: 6 acres of the farm dedicated to growing food for staff
Proof, not just claims
Gaia Herbs Farm’s Regenerative Organic Certified Silver status, awarded in 2022, is verified by the Regenerative Organic Alliance, a third-party certifying body, not a self-declared claim.
Why this belongs on a sustainability directory
Being the first herbal supplements farm in the Southeast US to reach Regenerative Organic Certified Silver status gives Gaia Herbs a specific, dated, third-party-verified claim on SDG15 (life on land), since ROC standards require documented soil health and biodiversity practices, not just organic input sourcing. Operating its own 270-acre farm rather than only sourcing from third parties also means the company controls, and can be held accountable for, the growing practices behind a meaningful share of its own supply chain, connecting to SDG12 (responsible consumption and production).
