Korea Herb Association
The Korea Herb Association is a non-profit organization launched in 2004 by like-minded individuals in the herb industry, including cultivation, production, processing, distribution, and education of herbs and natural aromas.
The association continues its activities to promote information exchange and education on herbs and natural aromas, and to foster solidarity and friendship among its members.
Herbs are useful for human life in various fields such as health, food, beauty, and aromatherapy, and have recently become established as a field of natural therapy and alternative medicine.
The Korea Herb Association is like the fragrance of herbs.

We want to create a living space where we can feel it together.
