Our story

Rooted in tradition, tested for today.

Hemveda started with a simple frustration: it was nearly impossible to know where herbal products actually came from, or whether the claims on the label held up. We built relationships directly with growers across India, Bulgaria, Oregon, Chile, and Poland, and we test every batch before it reaches your door.

Our journey

From one bad label to six traceable products

  1. 2024

    A frustrating label

    Hemveda started with two friends standing in a supplement aisle, unable to find out where an "organic ashwagandha" actually came from. We decided to build the thing we couldn't find: a herbal brand that shows its work.

  2. Jan 2025

    First harvest, first batch

    We flew to Madhya Pradesh to meet the ashwagandha growers directly, and paired it with a small-batch chamomile & lavender blend sourced from Egypt and Bulgaria. Both were lab-tested before a single jar shipped.

  3. Mid 2025

    Immunity and digestion join the lineup

    An Oregon elderberry tincture and a peppermint-ginger digestive capsule rounded out the range, built around the two questions customers asked us most: "what helps me sleep" and "what helps my stomach."

  4. Late 2025

    Skin and detox, and a promise on testing

    Rosehip facial oil from Chile and a roasted dandelion root tea from Poland brought us to six products across six countries of origin — and we committed to publishing a certificate of analysis for every batch that supports one.

  5. 2026

    Where we are now

    Today Hemveda is a small, deliberately unhurried team: direct grower relationships on four continents, third-party batch testing, and a journal where we try to write about herbs the way we wished someone had written to us — honestly, with the caveats included.

Hemveda by the numbers

Small enough to know every farm by name.

No commodity suppliers, no anonymous blends — every number here traces back to a real farm and a real test result.

Sourcing & sustainability

If we can't trace it, we don't sell it

Every product page links to its origin and, where applicable, a certificate of analysis. We favor smaller, traceable farms over large commodity suppliers, even when it costs more — it's the only way we can stand behind what's in the jar. As the catalog grows, the rule stays the same.
