Did you know . . . ?
Copaiba trees grow in tropical South America, especially along the Amazon of Brazil. The Amazon River basin averages about 80-85% humidity and 90 inches of rain per year. They also experience 12 hours a day of sunlight. These conditions are exceptional for plant growth! As a result Copaiba trees thrive in this unique climate.
To bring you the Copaiba oil you know and love, doTERRA partners with local harvesting families that live along the Amazon River in Brazil. For generations, as is tradition, each of these families takes care of several copaiba trees. As a result of this partnership, doTERRA guarantees them consistent, on-time payments and a fair market price for their product. In return, they provide us with the highest possible quality of pure, life-changing Copaiba essential oil!
