Ghost Pine Pollen - Raw and Wild-Harvested

Rare, raw, and wild-harvested. The American River Ghost Pine Pollen is sustainably hand-collected in California’s unique foothill and chaparral regions. Unlike mass-produced imports that are often microwaved and degraded, our pollen is always raw, minimally processed, and optimally stored to preserve freshness and integrity.

Collected each spring during the tree’s brief pollen release, this wildcrafted ingredient reflects the rugged landscapes where Ghost Pine thrives.

About the Ghost Pine

Ghost Pine (Pinus sabiniana)—also known as foothill pine, bull pine, or gray pine—is a species native to California and found only within the California Floristic Province, one of the world’s biodiversity hotspots.

This hardy conifer grows where few others can: in dry, rocky foothills with poor soils and extreme summer heat. Despite these challenges, Ghost Pine not only survives but flourishes, releasing tons of golden pollen each spring. This pollen nourishes the surrounding ecosystem, enriching the soil and supporting plant and wildlife communities that depend on it.
