Wild Elderberries Hand Harvested
Formulated by Dr. Catie Morse, Naturopathic physician specializing in wild harvesting and food chemistry.
Introducing Dr. Catie Morse and her amazing Elderberry Extract.
Dr. Catie Morse, formulator and founder of Dr. Appleseed’s Elderberry Extract, hand harvests, with a group of close friends, berries from pristine wild locations in the Cascade Mountains of Washington.
Old world harvesting; new world extraction
She takes the best of the old ways and overlays techniques and tools from modern food chemistry to ensure reproducibility and quality assurance in every batch.
Dr. Catie, and her team, work in an organic, low chemical kitchen to produce and fill each jar by hand.
To ensure sustainability and give back to the land, Catie and her team make sure to leave plenty of berries behind for the birds and the bears. In addition, they return to the wild and plant more elderberry bushes. You can see this process highlighted on the infographic, The Journey of the Elderberry.
