7 Herb Farm Success Stories [2023]
Herb farm is dedicated to farming herbs for commercial purposes. Since herbs are not commercialized to a large extent, herbal farming can be profitable.
Herbs are used in medicine, pharmacy, cosmetology, and food production.
Consuming herbs may prevent and help manage heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Besides, some herbs reduce blood clots and provide anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor properties.
Here are some real life success stories of starting a herb farm:
1. Everlasting Herb Farm ($73.2K/year)
Wendy Mackenzie (from Peacham) started Everlasting Herb Farm over 20 years ago.
Hello! My name is Wendy Mackenzie and I am the co-owner of Everlasting Herb Farm in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. After having been a teacher for over twenty years, I am now able to make a living out of my backyard in one of the most photographed villages in all of New England. I am right where I want to be, surrounded by forests and open farmland just outside the village of Peacham.
The best part of owning my own business is having time freedom, getting to use the twenty-four hours I have each day how I want to use them, doing what I need to do, but in a way that works for who I am. The second best part of my business is getting to work from home, especially during COVID-19. As a former educator, I had NO time freedom, so I feel particularly giddy about being able to work from home.
2. Blue Nectar Ayurved Products ($360K/year)
Kapil Dhameja (from Gurgaon) started Blue Nectar Ayurved Products over 5 years ago.
Hi! We are Kapil Dhameja and Sanyog Jain and this is our story of how we got inspired to start a Contemporary Ayurved Beauty and Wellness brand backed by research and processed by modern technology, for the generation which is always on the move.
Currently, we do revenue of $150K/month with 15,000 units. Our repeat repeats are as high as 50%-60% for some of the products like Kumkumadi Face Serum and Face Creams.
