We don’t have an impact program. We have customers. Every bottle you buy pays a farmer directly at the price they named, puts a hot meal in someone’s hands outside a Delhi hospital, and keeps a child in school. You did that — we just carry it.
The Organic Forest exists to prove that pure, single-origin oils can be made fairly — for the people who grow them and the families who need help most. Most botanical brands buy oil by the drum from whoever is cheapest that month, cut it to hit a price, and call it nature. We started from the opposite instinct: keep things whole. A forest doesn’t blend its rivers or cut its honey — neither do we. That same instinct shapes who we pay and who we help.
We stand for plant-based products, honest grading, and a supply chain with no brokers. These aren’t marketing lines — they decide what we will and won’t sell.
Every product is 100% plant-based and never tested on animals. If it can’t be made from the plant, we don’t make it.
We grade our own oils honestly. Some have real clinical evidence, some are early, one has none — and we say so on its page. We’d rather tell you where the science is thin than oversell it.
We buy from the farm that grows it — the farm that grows it — at a price the grower names, not a rotating commodity pool. Fair prices reach the farm instead of being skimmed in the middle.
We allocate a share of our revenue to the Organic Forest Giving Fund — and we pay it out ourselves, directly. It’s not routed through a separate charity or a co-branded campaign, and it’s not a one-off pledge. It runs every week, funded by every order, for as long as we’re in business.
Food drives for families waiting outside Safdarjung Hospital, Delhi — people far from home with nowhere to eat, when a hot meal is the last thing on anyone’s mind.
Help with last rites for families who cannot afford them — a final respect everyone deserves, at the hardest moment.
Sponsoring a school year for a child who would otherwise go without — one year, one child, at a time.
On the supply side: we buy from the single farm that grows each oil, at a price the grower names. Fair prices reach the growers themselves — which is also how we keep single-origin oils accessible rather than luxury-priced. That is what we mean by organic without the organic tax.
You won’t find a big donation total at the top of this page, and that’s deliberate. We’re a young house, and we’d rather show you audited figures than impressive-sounding estimates. When we publish numbers, they’ll come from an audited annual impact report, the way it should be done. The counters come later — audited, not invented.
Until then, we tell you exactly what we fund and how — not a figure we can’t yet stand behind. It’s the same honesty we apply to our oils: every bottle is GC/MS tested and ships with its own Certificate of Analysis, so what’s on the label is what’s in the bottle.
There’s nothing extra to opt into and no donation button to press. Choose a single-origin oil you’ll actually use, and the giving is already built into the price.
We’re a young house, and we’d rather be honest about that than oversell it.
