In the early 1990s increased use of St. John's wort extracts to treat anxiety and low mood led to an increase in demand for raw Hypericum plant material. Sustainable wild harvesting became increasingly difficult to maintain whilst cultivated stocks of St. John's wort were difficult to obtain.
Furthermore, as Alfred Vogel's principles required the use of freshly harvested organically-grown plants, the use of dried St. John's wort was out of the question. So began the task of developing a sustainable, organically grown crop for A.Vogel's St. John's wort products.
Four years of research work ensued - investigating all aspects of cultivation from the seeds to conditions at harvest. One variety of St. John's wort stood out from the rest - with strong growth, ease of cultivation, resistance to disease and high levels of active plant compounds.
It is this variety of St. John's wort that is now cultivated by A.Vogel and its contract farmers, giving us a sustainable supply of St. John's wort plants of the highest quality for Hyperiforce St. John's wort tablets and our other St. John's wort products.
We call this 'cultivation with a conscience'.
