D. Gary Young Founder,
Young Living Essential Oils
Summary
Donald Gary Young (D. Gary Young) was born in July 11, 1949, and is the founder and
president of Young Living Essential Oils, which was established in 1989.
His is also
the founder of The D. Gary Young Foundation, a nonprofit charity that lends aid to
the underprivileged people and communities worldwide. He has researched and studied
alternative medicines and is considered a leading innovator on the health benefits of essential oils.
Early Life
In 1973, Gary Young was working as a logger when he sustained an injury that crippled his
legs and left him comatose for four months. After coming out of his coma, doctors told Gary
that he would never walk again.
Read the details: Gary Young - A Man and His Mission
Travels
For several years following his injury, D. Gary Young traveled throughout the United States,
Europe, the Middle East, India and Pakistan, to find answers that would allow his body to heal
and ease the pain in his legs. After researching different methods of natural healing, such as
naturopathy and herbology, he found that certain plants contained healing properties when
concentrated into the form of essential oils.
Gary Young discovered that many commercial grade
essential oils were diluted or contained additional chemicals that limited their purity and
effectiveness. He embarked on a personal journey to harness the full potential of essential
oils from seed selection, crop management, and harvesting to the distillation process.
Practice
After his travels and studies, Gary opened a family practice clinic in Chula Vista, California,
and a research facility to develop and refine natural healing techniques in La Mesa, Mexico.
The First Young Living Farm
Knowing that many commercial-grade oils are altered by the addition of synthetic materials,
Gary decided in1989 to purchase and farm a quarter-acre lot in Spokane, Washington. The farm
was used to harvest and distill lavender and other herbs in a way that would harness the total
purity of the essential oils. The farm became the first of many living laboratories for refining
the growth and processing of essential oils.
Gary Young built his first distiller by welding two pressure cookers with the swan neck of copper tubing.
In 1993, Gary Young developed a proprietary process that preserved the highest level of integrity
and purity of essential oils. He designed and built the largest and most technologically advanced
distillery in North America at the time for the distillation and production of the first 100 percent
pure therapeutic-grade essential oils, a term coined by Young for defining the essential oils he
grows and distills.
Young Living Essential Oils Company
D. Gary Young and his wife, Mary, created the Young Living Essential Oil company in 1989. Since then, it
has become a world leader in essential oils sold throughout the world, including Canada, Japan,
United Kingdom, and the United States. Young Living Essential Oils products are not sold in retail stores. The company utilizes relationship
marketing as their model from driving sales and promoting its products.
Gary Young’s Young Living Farms
D. Gary Young and his company maintain four farms for the production and distillation of essential oils.
The farms are located in St. Maries, Idaho, Mona, Utah, Simiane-La-Rotonde, France, and Guyaquil, Ecuador.
Humanitarian Efforts
Gary Young has led several humanitarian efforts including:
- In 2004, Gary and several Young Living Essential Oils employees traveled to Copper Canyon in Durango, Mexico, to build two schools and put in a water system for a remote Tarahumara Indian village.
- Gary Young launched The D. Gary Young Foundation: Young Living Outreach, which supports philanthropic causes worldwide, including the Cinterandes Foundation and its own Chongon School Project.
- Through Young Living Essential Oils, Gary and the company also support multiple charitable efforts including the You Can “Thrive” Foundation and the Urban Zen Foundation.
Family & Personal Life
Gary Young is currently married to former international opera singer Mary Billeter.
Together, they have built Young Living Essential Oils and have two sons, Jacob and Josef.
He has a passion for the old west that drives him to frequently load his packhorses and ride
into the mountains of Utah or northern Idaho where he grew up. He is also an active tournament jouster.
