The original pharmacy was really a "Farmacy", an original garden on the farm that reaches back to Eden. Two hundred and fifty years ago, there were no synthetic medicines. The estimated 250,000300,000 species of plants were the main source for the world's health care needs. Today, still over 75% of the world's population, rely on plants for their wellness.
Our forefathers discovered which plant species were edible and which had powerful health supporting properties. The plant kingdom offers probably our best medicine, definitely the safest!
Most of the world's medicines come from plants or are unfortunately, synthesized forms of plant compounds. Many medicines now prescribed in the U.S. contain foreign chemicals synthetically derived from plants, thus becoming chemicals, not plants. Historically, plant medicines were discovered by trial and error. Our ancestors noticed that aches and pains went away when they drank tea made from the bark of a willow tree. Later, scientists found that willow bark contains salicylic acid, now unfortunately made synthetically in aspirin.

Bring Back the Farmacy
It's our belief that the plant kingdom offers a powerful resource for our quality of life. Nature's medicine is intended to be just that-natural. The EarthTribe Farmacy's Plant Life concentrates (PLC's) are developed by utilizing the whole essence of the entire plant kingdom.

C02 Extraction
Through C02 Extraction (Supercritical Fluid Extraction), the full range of plant life elements in flowers, roots, herbs, leaves, foods, spices and any other botanicals can be extracted in their full and complete integrity! This process is done without the use of heat, or hazardous solvents. Supercritical Fluid Extraction uses C02 gas as the solvent. Under high pressure, C02 gases will reach a "Supercritical fluid" state and become a liquid form which helps break down the whole plant.
