Factors Farms®
By owning and maintaining its farms Natural Factors® is able to learn how to generate the most nutritious ingredients while respecting the earth’s natural rhythms.
With over 1,000 acres of certified organic farmland in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, Natural Factors® grows an astonishing variety of crops for production and research.
From using heirloom, non-GMO seeds to weeding and harvesting by hand, they ensure the greatest possible potency and show dedication to a responsible, regenerative approach to cultivating the earth.
Sustainable Fishing
The deep waters of the North Pacific are some of the most unpolluted in the world. This is where Natural Factors® sources the salmon to make our 100% Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil.
Beyond the Farms
There are many valuable ingredients, such as palm and coconut oils, that grow naturally in other parts of the world. There are also many ingredients, such as salmon oil, that do not come from plant sources.
No matter where they come from, all Natural Factors® ingredients are sourced with extreme attention to detail to ensure they meet high standards. Whether from theirs farms or trusted partners, Natural Factors® is dedicated to carefully curating the source of every product as it travels from seed to shelf. Natural Factors® takes heart in knowing every little detail, from harvest to bottle.
Seed to Shelf
Your shelf is the end of a long journey for a natural health product. It’s really important that Natural Factors® are there every step of the way. That’s why Natural Factors® has its own organic farms as well as own extraction, encapsulation, and production facilities.
This dedication to vertical integration has allowed Natural Factors® to bring as many processes as possible in-house. This means they can ensure that every ingredient, product, and person is treated equally, handled with care, and holds to our high standards.
