We believe in the power that nature has to help us heal. From taking a walk through the woods to learning about the healing properties of the plants that are all around us.

WHY CBD?

Cannabidiol—CBD—is a compound found within the hemp plant that has significant medical benefits. The fact that CBD-rich hemp is non-psychoactive makes it an appealing option for patients looking for relief from inflammationpainanxietypsychosisseizures, spasms, and other conditions without disconcerting feelings of lethargy or dysphoria. Scientific and clinical research—much of it sponsored by the US government—underscores CBD’s potential as a treatment for a wide range of conditions, including  arthritisdiabetesalcoholismMSchronic painschizophrenia, PTSDdepressionantibiotic-resistant infectionsepilepsy, and other neurological disorders including Parkinson’s disease. CBD has demonstrable neuroprotective and neurogenic effects, and its anti-cancer properties are currently being investigated at several academic research centers in the United States and elsewhere. Further evidence suggests that CBD is safe even at high dose.

why our cbd?

Our CBD oil is derived from organically grown hemp plants that we personally tend to and is extracted using a full spectrum extraction method, preserving all the available cannabinoids, terpenes and flavinoids which accentuate and facilitate the efficacy and bioavailability of CBD to the endocannabinoid system. Preclinical studies have shown that full-spectrum CBD-rich cannabis oil is effective at much lower doses and has a much wider therapeutic window than pure, pharmaceutical-grade CBD. Many CBD products on the market utilize a crystalline CBD isolate, which may increase profits, but diminishes the health benefits  of the product. Know your farmers, know your product!
