Who We Are

American Grown & Made

 

​Our American elderberry farm is located in central Missouri and our products are produced across the Midwest.  Our company founder, Terry Durham was key in establishing commercial elderberry farming and research here in the USA. Today, there are hundreds of small elderberry farms nestled across the country.  Not only do we offer elderberry plants and products, but we are also driven to help educate farmers and gardeners alike on how to grow American elderberries with success.

 

Our crew believes in the importance of agroforestry as well as soil health, we are constantly working to incorporate other Missouri natives into our fields.   We also work directly with The University of Missouri to research elderberries, ranging from growing practices and weed management, to future innovations in processing and harvesting.   

 

Our American Elderberry Juice was developed about 20 years ago once we began farming American elderberries commercially.  Today, we continue to grow our own but also purchase a number of our American elderberries from other skilled local growers across the USA.  Learn more about American elderberries and growing them on our Resources page or visit our Health page to read why we choose to only use American elderberries (Sambucus canadensis).

Elderberry: Nature's Medicine Chest

Elderberries have been recommended for their health benefits throughout history.

Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, called elderberries “Nature’s Medicine Chest for the common people,” and from that point forward, it is noted in herbals and pharmacopeia.

Today, Advancing American Elderberry with The University of Missouri among others are conducting a number of studies relating American elderberries to many areas of our health.  We are excited to see the studies come to fruition, and many are using OUR elderberry juice!  Some of these studies relate to brain health, weight loss, inflammation, blood sugar regulation, digestive tract and more.
