Linden Botanicals Celebrates 10 Years as an Independent Botanical Company
Linden Botanicals is celebrating 10 years of sharing exceptional botanicals, trusted herbal education, and a passion for helping people support their health naturally.
Linden Botanicals’ search for exceptional herbs has involved travel around the world to explore where plants grow, how they are harvested, and the traditions and people behind them.
Education has been central to Linden Botanicals from the beginning. More than 500 articles, in-depth botanical guides, eBooks, and other resources help customers explore traditional herbal knowledge alongside contemporary scientific research.
Colorado small business marks a decade of global botanical sourcing, herbal education & a commitment to connecting customers with plants from around the world.
Founded in 2016 by Michael Van der Linden, Linden Botanicals grew from his longstanding interest in medicinal plants and the traditions, science, and people behind them. From the beginning, Van der Linden envisioned a company that would pair a carefully curated selection of botanicals with an extensive online library of educational resources.
"Our mission has never been to build the largest possible catalog," said Van der Linden, founder of Linden Botanicals. "From the start, we have wanted to explore plants from around the globe, find exceptional sources, and share what we learned along the way. Ten years later, that curiosity still drives the company."
A Global Search for Botanicals
Over the past decade, Linden Botanicals' search for botanicals has extended across continents and cultures. The company has explored growing regions and herbal traditions in locations ranging from the Amazon rainforest to Crete and Asia.
Those experiences have reinforced the company's emphasis on plant identification, growing conditions, harvesting practices, processing, and supplier relationships.
"Where a plant grows, how it is harvested, how it is identified, and how it is processed all matter," Van der Linden said. "Traveling and learning directly about plants and their origins has given us a much greater appreciation for the people, places, and traditions behind them."
That global perspective has become an important part of the Linden Botanicals story. The company's sourcing philosophy emphasizes understanding not just the plant itself, but also its origins and the practices involved in bringing it from its growing region to customers.
Building an Herbal Education Library
Education has also been central to Linden Botanicals throughout its first decade.
The company has published more than 500 articles exploring individual plants, traditional herbal practices, botanical history, plant compounds, sourcing, and contemporary scientific literature. Linden Botanicals has also developed eBooks, newsletters, botanical guides, and other educational resources for people interested in learning more about herbs.
The goal is to make complex botanical information understandable to a general audience while distinguishing between historical use, emerging research, and established knowledge.
"There is always something more to learn about plants," Van der Linden said. "One scientific paper leads to another. One conversation with a grower raises a new question. One trip introduces us to a tradition we hadn't encountered before. That process of discovery is one of the things I value most about this work."
An Independent Small Business Enters Its Second Decade
Linden Botanicals has remained an independent small business throughout its first 10 years. Rather than pursuing rapid expansion, the company has focused on developing its botanical expertise, building supplier relationships, expanding its educational library, and serving its customers.
The anniversary provides an opportunity to recognize the customers, growers, suppliers, researchers, and others who have contributed to the company's first decade.
"Ten years is an important milestone for any small business, and we're grateful to everyone who has been part of ours," Van der Linden said. "What excites me most is that there is still so much to discover. We're entering our second decade with the same curiosity that inspired Linden Botanicals in the first place."
In its next decade, Linden Botanicals plans to continue expanding its educational resources, exploring botanical traditions and research, strengthening relationships with growers and suppliers, and sharing the stories of plants from around the world.
