The sea buckthorn is an indigenous plant of the European continent and Asia.
In Europe, the sea buckthorn finds himself mainly on the coastal dunes of the Baltic in Finland, in Poland, in Holland in Latvia and Germany.
Certain areas of France as the Alps of the South are also very favorable for sea buckthorn where a considerable harvest is carried out each year on wild plants.
The gravelly deposits of the edges of rivers, the old drained rivers, the sandy edges of lake as well as the mountainous areas of France and Italy (the Alps, the Pyrenees) are other places of predilection.
