Field Notes
The Origin of Forest Manna RAW Pine Pollen™ Powder
The story and origin of RAW Forest Foods are—inseparably—the story and origin of our RAW Pine Pollen™ Powder. From the very inception of RAW Forest Foods, RAW Pine Pollen™ has been synonymous with our mission.
Before RAW Forest Foods existed, there was the personal journey of our founder—his quest for healing, health, and recovery from Lyme disease. The first iteration of RAW Pine Pollen™ emerged from his home apothecary, long before RAW Pine Pollen™ and Pine Pollen Tinctures were available commercially.
In 2010, in response to requests from what would become our growing family of customers—our trail family—RAW Forest Foods was founded to share our handcrafted, wild-harvested RAW Pine Pollen™ and Pine Pollen Tinctures.
After nearly 15 years of experience, we keep returning to the truth of RAW Pine Pollen™—continually reminded of the humble promise of simplicity. Sometimes, the answer isn’t more or new—the answer is returning to the source. Returning to the origin. The functional nutrition of RAW Pine Pollen™ works at a foundational level in the body, supporting and restoring our deepest reserves—Jīng (essence) and Yuán Qì. By returning to the source, we can—if we’re lucky—find the solutions to what is missing. To what is lacking in our modern lives and in our modern diets. And in the case of RAW Pine Pollen™, we are lucky.
Behind the Forest Manna Name
We strive to bring purpose and integrity to everything we do, and Forest Manna is no exception. The name Forest Manna contains the concept and mythology of manna—a divine gift offering life-sustaining nourishment. Manna is the food of the gods.
Borne of the forest, RAW Pine Pollen™ is Forest Manna—an offering from nature itself. RAW Pine Pollen™ is the manna of the wilderness. The manna of the forest. A pure, wild-harvested source of nourishment, nurturing, supporting, and restoring foundational wellness—resilience and vitality of the body, mind, and spirit.*
And just as manna was celebrated in ancient lore not only as a life-sustaining force but as a life-giving one, the name Forest Manna honors the potent nourishment provided through unspoiled wilderness—in the wild origins of our Mountain Harvest Pine Pollen™. Forest Manna RAW Pine Pollen™ Powder is a living testament to the profound potential inherent within each grain of Pine Pollen—sustaining and supporting life while symbolizing the transformative power of nature.
Each spring, during a brief three-day window of opportunity, all our Mountain Harvest Pine Pollen™ is wild-crafted from the same select, remote, and pristine forests of Chun'an County, China—a protected area of extraordinary beauty and untouched wilderness. This is single origin, site-verified Pine Pollen. This is our Pine Pollen.
By nurturing strong, ongoing relationships with our local wild-crafters, we are able to bring you Mountain Harvest Pine Pollen™ in its purest form and at the peak of potency—while honoring tradition, forest wisdom, and our unwavering commitment to nature, to tradition, and—most importantly—to you.*
Forest Manna RAW Pine Pollen™ Powder is more than a functional food—this powder embodies our philosophy of, and dedication to, true and transformative wellness.* This powder reflects our deep commitment to purity, quality, and the integrity of nature—while providing you with the finest functional nutrition the forest has to offer.
Forest Manna RAW Pine Pollen™ is a harbinger of transformation, and we invite you to let it be your gateway to unlocking the profound potential within yourself—to discovering the infinite power within. This is your invitation to join the trail family.
