Wildharvesting this important rainforest plant is not achieved sustainably in the wild since the root must be harvested. This is why Raintree has not offered this plant in the past. Raintree's supply of jergon sacha root comes from the high jungle of Peru where new organic cultivation programs with medicinal plants are replacing old coca plantations and providing new sources of income for poor farmers on their existing lands. Click here to see the pictures of this cultivation program.

This bulk one pound package retails for $28.00.
