YOUNG LIVING FARMS
By cultivating, harvesting, and distilling many of our essential oils on our very own farms, we have the unique ability to verify perfection at every step of our process. Combine this with our extensive laboratory testing and independent audits, and it's no wonder that we routinely exceed our own industry-leading quality standards. Our commitment to quality doesn't stop there, however. Inspired by the fields, forests, and jungles that surround our pristine farms, Gary Young is constantly discovering new botanicals and essential oils, helping us bring more of nature's greatest gifts to people everywhere.

Guayaquil, Ecuador
Boasting nearly 2,000 lush acres of farmland, our Ecuador farm's fertile ground and year-round growing season support an abundance of palo santo trees, several new high-oil-content plants, along with ample cultivation of lemongrass, ruta graveolens, and many more local plants and herbs. This farm is also proving to be the perfect place to harvest oils that are in short supply throughout the world, such as helichrysum, which is renowned for its restorative properties.
NEW ESSENTIAL OIL DISCOVERIES
Dense jungles surround the farm, creating a natural lab for essential oil research and development. Founder Gary Young ventures into the jungle on a regular basis to obtain plant samples, which are then analyzed for their therapeutic properties. Once a new Young Living® essential oil is discovered, the plant is either cultivated and distilled on the farm, or sustainably harvested from existing supplies.
Some Young Living essential oils developed in this manner include:
- Copaiba essential oil
- Dorado Azul essential oil
- Eucalyptus blue essential oil
- Ocotea essential oil
- Palo santo essential oil
- RutaVaLa essential oil blend
- Annual Amazon Adventure
Every year Gary Young and a group of Young Living Independent Distributors travel to Guayaquil for the Annual Amazon Adventure. This once-in-a-lifetime experience includes guided hikes through the jungle, tours of the Young Living farm's fields and distillation facilities, essential oil trainings, and much more.
ST. MARIES FARM
Idaho, U.S.
Previous to Young Living's 1992 purchase of the land for the St. Maries farm, this area had never been exposed to chemicals, pesticides, and manmade fertilizers. This pristine condition makes the 200 acres of soil perfect for the cultivation of botanicals such as melissa, lavender, and tansy.
HIGHLAND FLATS TREE FARM
Idaho, U.S.
The Highland Flats tree farm is located near the small Idaho town of Naples, less than 50 miles from the U.S.-Canada border. Since 2000, the 250-acre farm has hosted the annual Winter Harvest, where distributors join in harvesting blue spruce, balsam fir, red cedar, and pine trees. Each spring, distributors also participate in the Spring Planting, an important reforestation project that replaces the harvested trees.
SIMIANE-LA-ROTONDE FARM
Simiane, France
Young Living's Simiane-la-Rotonde farm is located in Provence, a region of France renowned for its beauty, fragrant lavender fields, and summer-long festivals. Young Living takes advantage of this fertile land to grow clary sage, lavender, and einkorn wheat.
SALALAH FARM
Salalah, Oman
In 2010, Gary acquired farm acreage in Oman for cultivating Boswellia sacra, or Sacred Frankincense. Now, for the first time in centuries, this precious oil is being distilled in Oman, and Young Living is the first and only company in the world to obtain permission to export it to the Western world. Young Living also cultivates Commiphora myrrha, the botanical used to distill myrrh, another prized biblical oil, at the Oman farm.
NORTHERN LIGHTS AROMATIC FARM
7109 Alaska Highway, Fort Nelson, BC VOC 1R0
Purchased in 2014, the Young Living Northern Lights Aromatic farm grows and will soon distill black spruce, ledum, and yarrow. As part of Young Living's commitment to sustainability, this scenic farm will also be the site of continuous reforestation of the trees they harvest, including the black spruce that are crucial for the popular Valor essential oil blend.
CROATIA FARM
Split, Croatia
Croatia is home to a wide variety of aromatic plants. It not only is an ideal location for growing helichrysum but also many other crops that will be processed at Young Living's newest distillery, found right on the beautiful farm. This facility will be a fully functioning distillery as well as a manufacturing plant and distribution center.
AUSTRALIA PARTNER FARM
Darwin, Australia
Established in 1994 and located in Australia's Northern Territory on the northern coast, the Young Living Darwin Farm is their oldest cooperative farm. Young Living has worked closely with owner Vince Collins for nearly 15 years to harvest and distill the distinctive Blue Cypress essential oil.
TAIWAN COOPERATIVE FARM
Taiwan
In 2011, when Gary Young flew to the island of Taiwan to explore its native plants, he began a friendship with Ginn S. Lee, PhD, an acclaimed agriculturalists and his son Tiger Lee, a young engineer. Together they distilled exotic hong kuai and xiang mao botanicals, which were featured in the 2013 Exotic Oils Collection, as well as jade lemon, which was featured in the 2014 kit.
ISRAEL COOPERATIVE FARM
Israel
Just a 25-minute drive from Jerusalem, the young Living Israel Cooperative Farm is where Gary Young Met entrepreneur Guy Erlich, who cultivates 8,000 Balm of Gilead (Commiphora geliadensis). This farm is the first large scale commercial plantation site in the world for this historical aromatic treasure.
PARTNER & COOPERATIVE FARMS
Dubai & Somaliland
A three generation family business owned by farmer Hassan Saleh, the Young Living Dubai and Somaliland partner farms provide Young Living crucial Boswellia carterii and Boswellia frereana. At the Somaliland farm, frankincense resin is collected and sent to the Dubai farm to be distilled. Running six days a week distilling frankincense essential oil exclusively for Young Living, the Dubai farm has rebuilt their distillery to fully meet Young Living's exacting Seed to Seal standards.
