Grown with Heart in the Pacific Northwest

Our Journey

Portland Ashwagandha Farm was born from a deep reverence for the healing power of plants and a commitment to regenerative agriculture. Nestled in the lush landscape of Corbett, Oregon, our farm sits on land that has been carefully tended to restore its natural vitality and biodiversity.

What began as a vision to grow medicinal herbs using sustainable practices has blossomed into a thriving operation dedicated to producing the highest quality Ashwagandha, Tulsi, and other adaptogenic herbs. We believe that the potency of our plants comes not just from the seeds we sow, but from the health of the soil, the purity of the water, and the care we invest in every step of the growing process.

Regenerative Farming Practices

Our approach to farming goes beyond organic—it's regenerative. We work with nature, not against it, to build soil health, sequester carbon, and create a thriving ecosystem. Our practices include:

  • Low-till cultivation to preserve soil structure and microbial life
  • Cover cropping to add nutrients and prevent erosion
  • Composting to return organic matter to the earth
  • Water conservation through careful irrigation management
  • Biodiversity enhancement by creating habitat for beneficial insects and wildlife

Every plant is hand-tended from seed to harvest, ensuring that only the healthiest specimens make it into our products.

The Spagyric Method

Our commitment to quality extends beyond the field to our unique extraction process. We use the ancient Spagyric method—a holistic approach to herbal preparation that honors the whole plant and captures its complete healing essence.

This alchemical technique involves three key stages:

  1. Separation: We carefully extract the plant's essential oils and alcohol-soluble compounds through gentle maceration
  2. Purification: The remaining plant material is calcined (burned to white ash) to concentrate the mineral salts
  3. Recombination: The purified mineral salts are reunited with the extract, creating a tincture that contains the plant's complete spectrum of constituents

This time-honored process results in a more bioavailable and potent remedy than conventional extraction methods. The Spagyric tincture captures not just the active compounds, but the energetic signature of the plant itself.

Our Commitment

We believe that true healing comes from plants grown with intention, harvested with gratitude, and prepared with care. Every bottle we produce represents our dedication to the land, to traditional wisdom, and to your wellbeing.

From our soil to your soul, we're honored to share these powerful plant allies with you.
