When I first started working at Pacific Botanicals in 1994 things looked very different than they do now. We've grown a lot and our industry has changed but I still feel the same level of enthusiasm and commitment to something important that I did all those years ago. We've remained true to the original vision of creating something wholesome and good, without compromising our beliefs.
In my free time I enjoy overland camping trips with my family to the desert SW and mountains and coastlines of the Pacific NW. Anywhere it is quiet with epic mountain biking trails to ride or rivers to raft with my family is my happy Place. Since earning a degree in Environmental Studies in 1998, Matt has dedicated his career to fostering a deeper connection between humans and plants.

For All Orders Paid by Credit Card, Prior to packing your order we will pre-authorize your credit card to make sure there are sufficient funds available for payment. If there is a problem with the pre-authorization, we will call you to clarify and confirm. Since we are first and foremost a working farm, we do not guarantee any time frames in which orders will ship.
The soul, vision and creation of our farm was by founder and former owner, Mark Wheeler. He established Pacific Botanicals in 1979 after healing himself from a long bout with chronic colds and flu using simple herbal remedies. Mark was so inspired by his own healing that he started a small farm in Southern Oregon to grow organic medicinal herbs.
We see our farm, its people, and processes, not as a factory but rather as a living whole system. We recognize that organic production integrates social, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance and conserve biodiversity. Our ecosystem here at the farm is alive and has many interwoven components; from the seeds to the soil, from the climate, to the people who work here.
Organic Certification is the Cornerstone of our Commitment to Quality. Each year our farm, mill, and warehouses are inspected and certified by Oregon Tilth Certified Organic (OTCO). OTCO is recognized as one of the most rigorous organic certifying bodies in the country Oregon Tilth certifies us as processors and handlers.
At Pacific Botanicals you can trust that the daily focus of our entire team is on quality. We all participate in ongoing quality improvements whether it's from our farm and field workers, processors, packers or administrative team. We have a very comprehensive quality control process. First and foremost all herbs that are grown at Pacific Botanicals follow the rigorous organic certification standards set for us by Oregon Tilth Certified Organic.
