Whole World Botanicals collaborates with our organic farming and wildcrafting partners in the rainforest and the Andes to support not only green farming but also green living.
A Hands on Approach - WWB works directly with native people
Viana Muller, Ph.D.
"Viana consults with an apu (local leader of a camu-camu collecting community) about challenges of life in the northeastern Peruvian rainforest. Outside commerical interests have clear-cut part of their forest and over fished their rivers, degrading their environment and impoversihing local river dwellers."
WWB Supports & Promotes Bio-energetic Agriculture
Viana Muller, Ph.D.
Whole World Botanicals' herbs are bioenergetically grown and harested. Maca roots, for example, are sown at the full moon and leafy plants are sown with the new moon. In order for medicinal parts to have maximum strength, plants are harvested at the full moon. These practices of native people all over the world are honored by WWB.
Whole World Botanicals has partnered for more than a decade with the Quechua-speaking communities who grow our organic maca roots in the high Peruvian Andes.
In 2007, the Peruvian government granted WWB a Concesión para Conservación, a Forest Reserve of more than 10,000 acres of virgin old-growth rainforest near the National Park Pacaya-Samiria.
A new model of sustainable business practice that respects indigenous wisdom. Large corporations aided by a contemptible global economic system, perpetuate notoriously poor business practices in the majority world.
