The RAWGANIQ™ Difference
Our alfalfa grass is grown in the rich fertile soils of Inner Mongolia, abundant with nitrogen which provides the active fuel source to support photosynthesis. The grass is harvested in early spring and soaked in sterile water, rinsed and then cut before being slowly dehydrated and formed into powder. Once in powder form it is immediately packed into dry foil bags, then sealed in round cardboard drums to lock out heat, moisture or light.
