Every order from The Organic Forest does two things at once: it supports our family’s charitable foundation in Faridabad, and it pays the farmer who grew the oil directly — with no brokers in between.
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 — Agadir, Arizona, Tunisia — at a price the grower names, not a rotating commodity pool. Fair prices reach the farm instead of being skimmed in the middle.
Part of what you pay supports the Madhurim Jan Sahyog Foundation, a family-run charitable foundation in Faridabad, India. Its work is about dignity at the hardest moments — the gaps that usually go unfunded. It’s not a marketing line — a family foundation. This isn’t a co-branded campaign or a one-off pledge; it’s the foundation our family already runs, and your orders help keep it going.
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, the giving doesn’t stop at the foundation. Because we buy from the farm that grows it — Agadir, Arizona, Tunisia — at a price the grower names, the fair prices we pay reach the growers themselves — which is also how we keep single-origin oils accessible rather than luxury-priced. That’s 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.

We’re a young house, and we’d rather be honest about that than oversell it.
