There is a lot of “buzz” out there about CBD Hemp and the range of products available. Here are some basic facts about what we provide here at 5 Leaf Farm compared to what you may be seeing out there:
Most Farms growing CBD Hemp send their crops off to an Extract Processor, involving costly, energy consuming equipment, and often harsh chemicals. The resulting isolated compound (CBD) is then re-introduced into products such as tinctures and edibles, usually far from where the plant grew.
Though this creates a “pure” product that is easy to measure in dosage and potency, it strips away the other active compounds in the plant that act together in your system in what is known as the “entourage effect”.
We believe Nature intended for us to benefit from this plant in it’s whole form, and so here at 5 Leaf Farm, we take the time to process our Hemp on site, by hand- using natural, low-to-no heat infusion methods that preserve and retain the other precious active compounds such as CBG, trace amounts of THC, and precious, aromatic Terpenes.
Though not as clinically measurable, or as “concentrated” as products pumped full of CBD isolate, our whole plant, full spectrum process provides a more complete experience of what this amazing plant has to offer- and is consistently effective.
Our customers are constantly reporting results- everything from “reduced anxiety”, and “helps my sore shoulder”, to “no more seizures!”
While it must be made clear that the FDA does not currently recognize nor officially recommend CBD Hemp products as medicine beyond the pharmacuetical version known as Epidolex, there is no denying the overwhelming anecdotal evidence from people who use it. It works.
Our commitment to sustainable farming means the cleanest products possible. We never use chemicals or pesticides on our land – ever. Nothing but locally sourced fertility, fresh air and water, and good ole’ Holler Sunshine!
*please note– Our Hemp products are “Full Spectrum”, and are not derived from CBD isolates. They have been tested and certified by the State of West Virginia to contain .3% THC or less. Even trace amounts of THC may produce a positive result on THC sensitive drug tests, especially if ingested recently and consistently.
