Melinda Olson is the original Earth Mama. A mother + nurse, Melinda is also a not-so-secret plant lady/gardener + avid herbalist. But in the spring of ’97, Melinda began studying medicinal herbs + how to extract their healing powers — which led to planting, nurturing + harvesting a wide variety of herbs. What was once a hobby “blossomed” into a life-changing understanding of plant medicine.

In 2002, she began making + sharing organic tinctures, teas, soaps + salves using self-grown herbs. These were safe formulations grounded in earth wisdom + ancient knowledge + they worked. Melinda had a feeling the world was ready for this kind of medicine, especially pregnant women, postpartum women + their babies. And thus, Earth Mama the Company was born.... in a kitchen.

What began as one new mom's quest for a safe baby shampoo has grown into a beloved collection of more than 80 pediatrician + dermatologist recommended hair & skin care products for babies, kids & adults with sensitive skin.

For California Baby founder, Jessica Iclisoy, it starts with being obsessed with purity + sustainability in every part of their process - from ingredient selection, to manufacturing, to packaging + beyond.

When something doesn’t meet her strict standards, Jessica + her amazing team take it apart, analyze it + find a better way to do it. For example, when it became difficult to consistently source organic calendula flowers, they bought an organic farm in California + started growing the flowers themselves. To control the quality of their products, they built their own solar-powered, FDA-registered, certified organic manufacturing facility in Los Angeles.

Before finished products hit the streets, they test them to a level that meets or exceeds the highest standards in the world.
