Wild Roots was started by Hugo Marchand in a converted goat barn outside Aix-en-Provence in 2017. He'd spent ten years as a herbalist and grew tired of buying neem oil that arrived in plastic drums with no traceable origin. The farm now grows the comfrey, nettle, and yarrow it presses; the neem still comes from Kerala, cold-pressed by a cooperative Hugo has visited four times. Everything is bottled into amber glass in Provence, labelled in kraft, and tied with hemp twine.
— THE PROCESS —
The herb fields at dawn. South-facing terraces of comfrey and nettle, harvested by hand from May through August.
Cold press, set to 23°C. The heat ceiling that preserves the active fractions.
Settling tanks. The tincture rests for six weeks before bottling.
Hand-bottling in Aix. Kraft labels glued one at a time. The hemp twine knot is Hugo's own.
