About Us

Who we are...

In 1998 Moon Valley was conceived out of a passion to live ethically and sustainably.  Today that enthusiasm carries forth from our certified organic, biodynamic farm and embraces traditional knowledge from our family of artisan farmers, herbalists and beekeepers. Each element coming together to create amazing products made from the best things on Earth!

Our design, research, production, and sales teams are an assembly of strong local community organizers, artists, parents, entrepreneurs, activists, engineers, doctors, herbalists, and farmers dedicated to living in and creating a more sustainable, wholesome world.

Our products are developed with the intention to nourish and heal your body, mind, and spirit, as well as to care for the Earth. Kim Denend and Aaron Otto, creators of Moon Valley Organics, share their combined experiences in farming, healing, creativity/artistry, and activism to nurture a thriving business. Their quest for wholeness and well-being led them to develop their unique healing body care products. They recently collaborated with Dr. Daniel Newman, MD, ND, and DOM, and other licensed herbalists to formulate their newest medicinal salves. Daniel brings over 20 years of experience with internal medicine and pain management. He contributes his knowledge to formulating these unique blends of medicinal salves, which combine our favorite western herbs with traditional Chinese medicinals. The bulk of our ingredients are grown and processed in the Cascadia Bioregion, or meet high standards of integrity, quality and sustainability.

What We Do...

Moon Moon Valley Organics is a family owned and operated business located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain range. We use only the highest quality ingredients, incorporating sustainable farming & wild crafting techniques whenever possible. Combining proven scientific research and traditional medicinal knowledge, our product development team including a Naturopathic (ND), Oriental Medicine (AOM, Lac) and Traditional Medical (MD) practitioner, and an Herbalist specifically formulated our health and beauty products. Each of our botanical formulas incorporates the concept of synergy, which means the interaction of combined ingredients has greater effect than that of the ingredients individual effects. All of our products are petroleum-free and we never test on animals. We consciously grow, manufacture and distribute our products from seed to sale. All of our healing products are personally handcrafted, and most of the botanicals we use are wild crafted or grown on our farm.
