The Origin of RAW Forest Foods:
Transforming Illness into Wellness
The story of RAW Forest Foods begins in the lush landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, woven with threads of healing, innovation, and the power of nature.
In the spring of 2010, Ryan started RAW Forest Foods as a blog to detail his journey of healing and discovery while recovering from Lyme Disease using wild-harvested Pine Pollen. As Ryan shared his experiences on RAW Forest Foods, interest grew in the powders and tinctures he made for use in his own recovery. Soon, readers began reaching out, asking to purchase those powders and tinctures. Recognizing the need to share his knowledge on a larger scale, RAW Forest Foods grew from a blog into a company.
In the fall of 2010, RAW Forest Foods became the first company to offer RAW Pine Pollen™ and Pine Pollen Tinctures, introducing the world to the potential healing benefits of Pine Pollen. As RAW Forest Foods has continued to develop and expand its product range, they have remained committed to their core mission of providing high-integrity, plant-based herbal therapies to people worldwide.
Ryan is not just a founder, but a true pioneer—the first person to bring Pine Pollen products to the market. His passion for herbal medicine and quality are the cornerstones of our company's values. His personal healing journey from Lyme Disease and discovery of the transformative power of Pine Pollen set the stage for the birth of RAW Forest Foods.
As our journey continues, we remain committed to the principles that have guided us: quality, expertise, and a deep commitment to our customers and the plants that support their wellbeing.

Product Philosophy and Formulation
We specialize in harnessing the power of nature to serve your unique health and wellness needs. Our carefully-curated collection includes adaptogenic, phytoandrogenic, proandrogenic, and tonic herbs and formulas inspired by Ayurveda and Classical Chinese Medicine principles.
The Process Behind RAW Forest Foods
Our approach is to first support the body by providing the necessary resources for rebuilding foundational wellness (typically through the use of deeply nourishing herbs), then addressing underlying conditions (such as Dampness and Heat, and in some cases, the accumulation of estrogenic hormones and other endocrine system disruptors), and finally, revealing inner, innate vitality through the careful use of adaptogenic, phytoandrogenic, proandrogenic, and tonic herbs.
All our products are made in the United States in certified organic, FDA cGMP, and NSF-certified facilities. We work directly with producers and wild harvesters whenever possible to ensure the highest-quality ingredients and have traveled worldwide to verify the site and processing of our Mountain Harvest Pine Pollen.
