Why Organic is best
Organic means working with the delicate balance and rhythms of nature, from the soil, to plants and wildlife. We never use any pesticides or synthetic fertilisers when we grow and farm our herbs. We oversee every stage of the plant’s journey, sowing and harvesting each flower by hand and blending the herbal oils to create our signature organic skin care products.
Why do we choose organic ingredients for our products?
Our skin absorbs up to 60% of what we put on our skin! Using organic ingredients is kinder on your skin as they are free of any parabens, phthalates, SLS, artificial fragrances, formaldehyde, nanoparticles or propane/petroleum bases.
Organic ingredients are super effective at nourishing our skin. Skin conditioning herbs and plants have a long history of use on the skin and many healing herbs that are used therapeutically can be used to help condition and improve skin health. They can cleanse, restore and moisturise to help protect from free radicals, maintain skin elasticity, increase cell repair and renewal.
Why we choose to farm Organic?
Better for the soil - organic farming creates healthy, living soils by nourishing them with compost, nitrogen-fixing crops, and crops rotations. This results in organic soils being around 25% more effective at storing in the long-term.
Better for wildlife and biodiversity - on average, plant, insect and bird life is 50% more abundant on organic farms and there are around 75% more wild bees on organic farms.
Better for farm animals - organic farming has the highest animal welfare standards of any international farming system.
The best way to reduce your exposure to pesticides.
We are proud that all Herbfarmacy products are certified organic by the Soil Association. Soil are the largest organisation that regulates organic farming and their logo is easy to determine that product is organic. For us being organic is the only way we would chose to farm!
