Every botanical species is cultivated in partnership with certified organic family farms across the Pacific Northwest. We harvest sea buckthorn, rosehip, and meadowfoam at peak oil maturity before transporting them uncrushed to our regional milling room.
Dark violet miron and amber glass bottles shield fragile polyunsaturated fatty acids from light oxidation, preserving active tocopherols until the final drop meets your skin.
Three milling stages
Whole seed selection
Low-friction expulsion
Fine micro-filtration
Raw organic botanicals undergo mechanical winnowing to remove dust and chaff, keeping protective hulls intact until the pressing chamber opens.
Slow-turning mechanical screw presses extract virgin lipids beneath thirty-five degrees Celsius without petroleum-derived solvents or secondary hot runs.
Gravity pulls raw lipids through unbleached cotton fiber pads, retaining active plant sterols and natural earthy aromas without aggressive bleaching clays.
Raw botanical lipids should smell of seed, earth, and sun
We never add synthetic masking perfumes, synthetic preservatives, or silicones to disguise the authentic viscosity and honest scent of pure cold-pressed botanicals.
