Production & Sourcing

Echinacea commonly known as coneflower, is a perennial herb native to North America. The production of echinacea begins with cultivating the plant in well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with plenty of sunlight. Echinacea is often grown in fields or garden plots, where it thrives in temperate climates. Farmers propagate echinacea through seeds or root divisions, planting them in rows with sufficient spacing to allow for air circulation and healthy growth. The plants are relatively hardy and require minimal maintenance once established.

Harvesting echinacea can involve different parts of the plant, including the roots, leaves, and flowers, depending on the intended use. The roots are typically harvested in the fall of the plant's second or third year of growth, when they have accumulated the highest concentration of beneficial compounds. The entire plant is carefully dug up, and the roots are separated, cleaned, and prepared for drying. Leaves and flowers are often harvested during the summer when they are in full bloom and have reached peak potency. These parts are hand-picked to ensure they are not damaged during collection.
