As a company, Ancient Nutrition sources many of its ingredients from organic farms, including ingredients from the company’s new Headquarters located at The Center for Regenerative Agriculture & Sustainability, as well as the 4,000-acre Beyond Organic Ranch and Heal The Planet Farm, owned and operated for the past 12 years by Ancient Nutrition Co-Founders Jordan Rubin and Dr. Josh Axe.

Ancient Nutrition’s New Headquarters, The Center for Regenerative Agriculture & Sustainability

  • 110-acre farm in Middle Tennessee, photos here

  • Location of the Million Member Regenerative Food Forest initiative

  • Currently growing 100+ plant varieties, focused on bio-diversity & native pollinators

  • Home to ducks, chickens, guinea fowl, bees, horses, cows, sheep, and water buffalo

  • Located on top of a natural aquifer that provides pristine water

  • The farm is proudly certified organic and non-GMO

  • Not located near any conventional farm field to help avoid run-off and spray drift

  • Partnered with Cornell University to test soil 3x a year

  • Furniture, fixtures and buildings around the farm are locally and sustainably made using local Amish Artisans, thus lowering the transportation carbon footprint

Heal The Planet Farm and the Beyond Organic Ranch use permaculture practices to create regenerative food forests—with help from holistic grazing and livestock management—to build soil organic matter, capture carbon and transform the environment. It is located in Missouri and has been Organic Certified for over 10 years. 

“Through our regenerative agriculture practices, we make sure that we’re giving back to the soil instead of just taking from it, because we want to be part of the solution, not the problem,” said Jordan Rubin, Co-Founder and CEO of Ancient Nutrition. “That’s why all of the accessible waste material and by-product from the manufacturing process of Ancient Nutrition’s new fermented Multi Collagen Protein is composted and used to grow organic food crops, some of which become ingredients in Ancient Nutrition products.” 

Ancient Nutrition is in the business of utilizing ingredients sourced with integrity and transparency and the new R.A.N.C.H. Project is a way in which they can put resources and focus towards an expanded mission of being more regenerative and sustainable – leaving the planet better for future generations. 

Additionally, Ancient Nutrition is providing support for and partnering with the following organizations; Rodale InstituteMully Children’s FamilyClimate CollaborativeCornell University Soil Analysis Partner.
