How It’s Produced
- Harvesting: Goji berries are picked by hand when fully ripe.
- Washing and Sorting: Berries are washed and sorted to remove debris, unripe and damaged fruit.
- Drying: Berries are sun-dried or air-dried under controlled conditions until they reach a stable, chewy texture.
- Grading: Dried berries are sorted by size into count grades.
- Inspection and Packing: Berries are inspected for foreign matter, tested against specification and packed in lined cartons.

Goji berries are harvested from late summer to early fall, typically August to October. Dried berries are stored and graded year-round, so bulk supply is available throughout the year.
