Our community of wellness started small in 1993, when Gary Young
developed his first organic herb farming and distillation operation.
At the time, Gary had already discovered the incredible power of
essential oils, but because the quality of available oils varied so
greatly, he’d been unable to fully harness their potential. While he
knew that pure essential oils had the ability to produce spectacular
results, he found that the chemically altered or adulterated oils on
the market were often ineffective and even harmful.
Young
Living changed all that. As Gary developed more farmland in Utah and
Idaho, he began cultivating lavender, peppermint, melissa, clary sage,
and many other herbs. Fueled by a growing demand for pure essential
oils, Young Living designed and built the largest, most
technologically advanced distillery for the production of essential
oils in North America. At the same time, our burgeoning company also
developed the groundbreaking Young Living Therapeutic Grade standard,
which preserves the integrity and potency of natural essential oils.
Today, Young Living has grown to become the world leader in
essential oils and wellness solutions. Headquartered in Lehi,
Utah, with offices in Australia, Europe, Canada, Japan and
Singapore, as well as farms around the world, Young Living stays
true to Gary Young’s original vision. And with our steadfast
commitment to essential oil purity, we’ve inspired millions of
people everywhere to experience nature's gifts of wellness and
harmony, to create abundance as Young Living distributors, and to
discover new opportunities for lifelong transformation.
