Guaranteed pesticide-free
Guaranteed pesticide-free
Pharmacy Garden conducts laboratory tests on its herbs for pesticides and bacteria, providing several important benefits for both health and product quality:
1. Consumer Safety:
- Testing for pesticides and bacteria ensures product safety by identifying and eliminating potentially harmful substances, protecting the consumer from dangerous chemicals or pathogens.
2. Quality Assurance:
- Testing is part of our quality process and ensures high product quality by eliminating contaminants, thereby maintaining standards for medicinal herbs and ensuring that products meet health requirements.
3. Prevention of Health Risks:
- Identifying contaminants in laboratory tests prevents potential health risks, such as allergic reactions or other negative health effects, which can occur from consuming contaminated medicinal herbs.
4. Increased Treatment Effectiveness:
- Cleaner medicinal herbs, free from pesticides and bacteria, are expected to provide increased treatment effectiveness through a purer and more concentrated form of the active compounds.
5. Prevention of Antibiotic Resistance:
- Testing for bacteria is particularly important to counteract the spread of antibiotic-resistant strains. Ensuring that medicinal herbs are free from harmful bacteria helps preserve the effectiveness of antibiotics and counteracts the development of resistance.
Wild or small-scale grown herbs
Pharmacy Garden exclusively uses wild-harvested and small-scale cultivated medicinal herbs, which offers unique advantages for their quality and healthy properties. Wild-harvested herbs: These herbs develop a richer chemical composition when growing wild, which increases their therapeutic potential. Small-scale cultivated herbs: Grown with care and sustainable methods on small-scale farms, promoting local biodiversity and traditional cultivation practices. Both wild-harvested and small-scale cultivated herbs offer sustainable alternatives for herbal medicine, with richer nutrient profiles. The choice depends on personal preferences and environmental considerations.
Premium Quality
Our premium quality is primarily due to the use of wild-harvested and small-scale cultivated medicinal herbs. For Pharmacy Garden, premium means:
1. Natural Environment and Biodiversity:
- Wild-harvested herbs grow naturally and are exposed to various climatic and soil conditions, which increases biodiversity and broadens the spectrum of bioactive compounds.
- Small-scale cultivated herbs promote local biodiversity and support ecosystem health through sustainable farming practices.
2. Increased Concentration of Active Ingredients:
- Wild-harvested herbs can have higher concentrations of active compounds due to the natural stress they experience in the wild, which enhances their therapeutic effects.
- Small-scale cultivated herbs provide a healthy environment for the herbs, leading to a concentration of desired active substances.
3. Sustainability and Careful Cultivation:
- Wild-harvested herbs contribute to the preservation of wild plant populations without excessive impact.
- Small-scale cultivated herbs promote local economies and sustainable cultivation methods with natural fertilizers and minimal use of chemicals.
4. Purity and Quality Control:
- Wild-harvested herbs are of exceptional purity if collected from undisturbed locations.
- Small-scale cultivated herbs ensure higher quality and purity through better control over cultivation methods.
- Laboratory testing: Each batch of herbs is tested in accredited laboratories before packaging.

Preschool for Children with Disabilities
I want to die happy. That's why I started Pharmacy Garden. The idea is for the company to achieve financial sustainability to be able to build a preschool for children with disabilities. Because when the day actually comes to leave this life, I want to be able to close my eyes and know that I actually made an active choice and tried to build my happiness. To give something that lasts long after one's time on earth. Something that hopefully inspires children and others, must be the definition of what makes me happy. My two goals with this venture are:
The goals for Pharmacy Garden:
- Get more time, laughter, and mindful presence with my children and my closest ones.
- Achieve financial sustainability in the company to be able to finance a preschool for children with disabilities.
For a single parent, preschool is an incredibly important relief, even with perfectly healthy children. Therefore, I can only imagine how tough it must be to have a child with a disability without the possibility of relief. That is something I would like to give in addition to my time to the children.

Our story
Sustainable choice
Minimal Medical Pollution:
Did you know that globally we use approximately 100,000 tons of industrially produced medical products, which ultimately impacts our nature? Herbal medicine is much more environmentally friendly than industrially produced medicine. Studies from the University of Plymouth in the UK show problems with medical pollution, including antibiotic resistance, behavioral changes, and hormonal disturbances in animals. Furthermore, we create a cocktail effect through the thousands of industrially active substances that end up in the environment. Pharmacy Garden will always protect the environment, people, and animals.
Wild-harvested and small-scale cultivated medicinal herbs naturally represent a sustainable choice for several other reasons:
Sustainability:
Biodiversity: Wild-harvested herbs promote biodiversity by preserving natural plant communities and creating a balance in the ecosystem. Small-scale cultivated herbs often impact a smaller land area and allow for the preservation of local ecosystems.
Sustainable Agriculture:
Small-scale cultivations generally have a smaller environmental impact than large-scale commercial cultivations. By avoiding overuse of chemicals and artificial fertilizers, small-scale cultivation promotes sustainable agricultural practices.
Natural Growing Conditions:
Wild-harvested herbs grow in their natural environments without artificial fertilizers and chemical pesticides, minimizing the risk of medical pollution.
Cleaner Water Sources:
By avoiding the chemicals found in modern medicines, wild-harvested and small-scale cultivated herbs help preserve the purity of nearby water sources. This is crucial for maintaining the health of the ecosystem.
Local Economic Development:
Support for Local Communities: Small-scale cultivations and wild harvesting often support local communities by creating jobs and providing economic support. This can help preserve traditional cultivation methods and create a stronger local connection to nature.
Preservation of Traditional Knowledge:
Wild harvesting and small-scale cultivation often promote the transfer of traditional knowledge about herbs and their use, which is important for preserving cultural diversity and sustainability.
