Heritage & History
Gaia Herbs was founded in 1987 in Brevard, North Carolina by Ric Scalzo, an herbalist who wanted to build a supplement company that could stand behind every ingredient from seed to capsule. The founding principle was radical traceability: rather than buying herb extracts from commodity suppliers, Gaia would grow its own herbs on certified organic land and process them in its own facility.
Today, Gaia Herbs manages nearly 270 acres of Regenerative Organic Certified farmland in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Brevard, growing over 5 million plants and 45 types of herbs each year. The farm grows herbs including California poppy, ginseng, lemon balm, bacopa, and nettle leaf — plants chosen for their traditional use in herbal medicine and for their suitability to the Southern Appalachian climate.
Grown and Made in Brevard, North Carolina
Gaia Herbs processes its farm-grown herbs and manufactures finished supplements at an ISO-certified laboratory and manufacturing facility co-located with the Brevard farm. The liquid extract concentration process that Gaia uses for its Liquid Phyto-Cap line preserves the full spectrum of plant compounds rather than isolating individual constituents — a whole-herb approach that reflects the company's herbalist roots.
Gaia Herbs publishes potency and purity test results for every product through its Meet Your Herbs traceability program, allowing consumers to trace each batch of supplements to the specific farm, harvest date, and manufacturing lot. This level of transparency is exceptional in the supplement industry, where supply chain opacity is the norm. The company holds USDA Organic certification for its farm and maintains cGMP compliance in its manufacturing facility, ensuring every bottle of Gaia Herbs supplements reflects both botanical knowledge and manufacturing discipline.
