Eclectic Herb

Eclectic Herb 🌿 Pioneers in Fresh Freeze-Dried Herbs

Since 1982, we've been dedicated to harnessing the power of nature.

Our herbs are locally grown, sustainably harvested, and freeze-dried fresh in-house to lock in the full spectrum of natural benefits. For 40 years, Eclectic Institute has delivered the highest quality dietary supplements on the market. We have a full line of 100% fresh freeze-dried herbs and whole food powders, as well as herbal extracts, vitamins, creams, oils & a children's line. PIONEER OF THE

INDUSTRY:
Eclectic was the first in the herb industry to use freeze-drying technology. By freeze-drying fresh, whole herbs (rather than air or heat drying) Eclectic produces supplements that retain the fresh plants' biologically active constituents and natural potency. Eclectic is now freeze-drying fresh, raw, whole fruit, herbs, and vegetables to provide food powders that can be simply mixed with juice, added to smoothies, or sprinkled on food to boost nutritional intake. Eclectic's POWders provide Plant Originated Wellness in a tasty, economical and convenient form. Eclectic was also the first to use ORGANIC alcohol for its herbal extracts in order to provide the best quality extracts. And again, Eclectic was the first to produce alcohol-free extracts that especially appeal to children and those with adverse reactions to alcohol. Eclectic was the first to introduce Fresh Upgrade - a product line of herbs that are assayed for a range of bioactive compounds and include fresh freeze-dried, whole herbs. Fresh Upgrade is superior to standardized extracts because it contains the herbs' active cofactors that are left behind by solvent and CO2 extraction and traditional drying methods.

Did you know that 95% of our freeze-dried herbs are grown right here in the US? 🌿

That’s not just a stat we’re proud of - it’s a decision that’s rooted in everything we do.

When herbs travel shorter distances from farm to freeze dryer, they arrive fresher, more vibrant, and closer to the way nature intended them to be. More potency. Less time. Less loss.

We’re working with small family farms and ethical wildcrafters, many of whom we’ve partnered with for over 30 years. These are real relationships with real people who care as deeply about the land as we do.

When you choose Eclectic Herb, you’re not just supporting your own health. You’re supporting the farmers, the wildcrafters, and the ecosystems that make it all possible.

That feels pretty good to us, and we’re sure it will feel good for you too. 🌱

With so many beautiful yellow aster family plants out there, it’s easy to get confused about what’s a dandelion and what is not.

Fear not! In this video, our head herbalist Mel of walks you through the key identifiers of this powerful and oh so plentiful plant, as it’s popping up everywhere right now.

Have no desire to go out picking your own dandelions? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with fresh freeze-dried dandelion leaf and root.

The freeze-drying process ensures you’re getting the most of the beneficial nutrients and compounds to support you and your body for the long haul.

If you’d like the benefits of dandelion as fresh as nature intended, and without having to do the work of pulling your weeds…

Spring is here, and if you’ve been thinking about growing your own healing herbs, now is the time. 🌿

A few of our favorites to start with: calendula, chamomile, arnica, red clover, and California poppy. They’re gentle, generous plants that don’t ask for much and give back in so many ways. Think simple teas, infusions, oils, and salves.

You really don’t need a big garden. A few pots on a porch or a small corner of a yard is plenty to get started.

What we love most about growing your own is the relationship you build with the plant. You start to notice the little finer things in life. When it blooms, how it smells, the pollinators they attract, how it changes through the season. It slows you down in the best way. And, we’re pretty sure we could all use a bit of a slower pace in life these days.

Plus, the more love you put into your herb garden, the more love those herbs will give back to you. 🌸
