The Country Life Story
Country Life's Pledge of Integrity
Country Life was founded in 1971 as a family-run business with a serious mission to empower the community through wellness education and trusted natural products. Decades later, the Country Life family has grown, but we are just as passionate as we were in the beginning.
As a world leader in the natural health industry, we strive daily to create better standards to live by. From our organization, which was nominated by our employees for a Newsday Top Workplace award, to our global impact and carbon footprint, we are committed to making the world a better place.
Country Life is and has always been dedicated to helping people stand up for their health by being their partner in wellness!
