Lodgepole Pine Pollen - Raw and Wild-Harvested

Over 95% of pine pollen found online is from China where it is mass processed in facilities that microwave the pollen to crack the cell wall. Although this may increase the absorption of nutrients by 15% it also removes the pollen's natural defense layer and the product immediately begins degrading.

Unlike most of the pine pollen on the market, our pollen is always raw and optimally-stored to deliver the freshest product to our customers. Our Lodgepole Pine Pollen is sustainably hand-harvested from high up in the wilds of the American River watershed. It is minimally processed to separate high-quality pollen from pollen catkins.

Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) is an incredibly adaptable tree. It is found growing from sea-level to the alpine zones, and from Baja California to the Yukon. Near the coast, this conifer can grow gnarled stunted specimens, wind-swept in poor soils. Meanwhile, in alpine meadows, large Lodgpole pine trees slowly encroach transforming grassland to forest.

In the American River watershed, these versatile trees grow with meadow and brook, granite and quartz. They are generally found above 6500 foot elevation where summers are short and warm, punctuated by mid-season thunderstorms.

As a species, lodgepole pine can thrive in a number of different environments. This is a powerful adaptogenic plant androgen that is a crucial supplement to your health regime.
