YOUNG LIVING FARMS

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.


LAVENDER FARM

 

Mona, UT, 3700 North Highway 91, Mona, UT 84645
The rugged landscape of central Utah contrasts with our serene, fragrant lavender fields to create a place of pure peace and relaxation. Featuring over 1,400 acres of fragrant herbs, a cool reservoir, pristine natural beauty and fresh mountain air, the Mona, UT Lavender Farm is a beautiful destination the whole family can enjoy. Activities include:




  • Annual Lavender Harvest
  • Essential oils classes
  • Run through the Lavender 5K
  • Distillery tours
  • Wagon rides
  • Small animal farm visits
  • Paddleboat cruises


    • The Lavender Farm is also a perfect place for family reunions, company parties, and wedding receptions. Our Visitors Center is open year round, Monday through Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.


    YOUNG LIVING ECUADOR FARM

    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.

    Why does the brain remember dreams?

    An article from  Science Daily Some people recall a dream every morning, whereas others rarely recall one. In a new study, research shows that the temporo-parietal junction, an information-processing hub in the brain, is more active in high dream recallers. Increased activity in this brain region might facilitate attention orienting toward external stimuli and promote intrasleep wakefulness, thereby facilitating the encoding of dreams in memory. The reason for dreaming is still a mystery for the researchers who study the difference between "high dream recallers," who recall dreams regularly, and "low dream recallers," who recall dreams rarely. In January 2013 (work published in the journal Cerebral Cortex ), the team led by Perrine Ruby, Inserm researcher at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Center, made the following two observations: "high dream recallers" have twice as many time of wakefulness during sleep as "low dream recallers"

    Five Common Symptoms of Gluten Intolerance

    In an article posted from  healthy-holistic-living.com  it states: "To recognize a  gluten sensitivity  is not the easiest thing to do as symptoms can overlap other health issues making it difficult to distinguish what is causing what. It is important to determine whether we have a sensitivity to  gluten  because not only can we increase our health and quality of living by doing so, but we can avoid having the ignored sensitivity turn to Celiac Disease.  Generally blood tests are used to determine whether or not you are sensitive to  gluten  but these tests are not always completely accurate, making it important to check with your gut feeling if you are showing any of these symptoms. One of the issues with blood testing is that it only looks for one of six polypeptides in wheat, gliadin. But there are five other polypeptides that can cause sensitivity; wheat germ agglutinin, glteomorphin, gltueinin, prodynorphin, and omega gliadin. Any one or a combination of these
