LeafWorks builds scientific rigor and uncompromising ethics into all of its data and services.

LeafWorks is a female founded botanical genetics company dedicated to helping cultivators grow the best plants or fungi possible and product creators in the natural products industry raise the bar in product quality. We are committed to growing botanical knowledge and improving supply chain outcomes with DNA tools built for—and with—people who want to make natural products better. As highly trained scientists operating in a state-of-the-art genomics facility, we believe that cultivators and operators in the supply chain should be guided to solve the problem at hand with the right tools and a robust approach.

Genomics is a powerful tool that can directly improve the profitability, sustainability and quality of harvest potential and help breeders realize the plants or fungi of their dreams. From species ID for label compliance to trait ID for marker assisted breeding, we view LeafWorks as a third party testing solution to help you get wherever you want to go. No matter the pain point, we can help you solve it. We believe that throwing money at an issue is not the right way, but being targeted and strategic to spend money wisely is important. We truly feel we are your outside insider partner to help you reach your business goals.

At our core, we are a team of passionate plant scientists committed to good business practices, environmental sustainability and community empowerment. Our mission is rooted in respect for the natural world, what we can learn from it and the discoveries and innovations we have yet to see.

 We take the time to honor the farmers, producers and stewards who have contributed to a long legacy of feeding and healing ourselves through botany, agronomy and mycology, and we’re proud to be one of the only botanical genomics companies in natural products that refuses to work with unverified or poor quality data. Instead, we rely on substantiated germplasm sources and Botanical Reference Material to identify and create genomic solutions from robust markers that are extensively validated and fit for purpose. We ensure accuracy and integrity in everything we do. 

Our mission is guided by four pillars:

• Community responsibility
• Scientific responsibility
• Environmental responsibility
• Workplace responsibility

These values shape how we operate and ensure that our tools empower our clients to grow, process and create top-quality products with transparency and integrity.

LeafWorks is more than a company—we’re a community-driven team of scientists who care deeply about the people we serve. We’re here to collaborate, solve problems and work tirelessly to help build a better botanical world. Let’s grow together!
