Know your source of CBD
CBD is mainstream. Everyone is becoming aware of the many benefits of hemp extracts. A big part of the trend is the recent 2018 Farm Bill which has legitimized and legally sanctioned hemp industry. According to The Week, America has CBD Mania. The popularity is booming, but a 2017 University of Pennsylvania study examined CBD […]

Why we chose Supercritical CO2 Extraction
There are many options to extract components from hemp. The three most common are Butane, Ethanol, and Supercritical CO2 Extraction. We easily ruled out Butane due to the number of explosions and the toxic residue in the the final product. We can not endorse a process and product that pose significant health risks. We also […]

Thankful
It is hard to believe that today is Thanksgiving, although looking outside it looks more like Christmas here in the Northeast Kingdom. Nearly a year has gone by since we introduced our very first, Vermont grown by Vermont’s Own, CBD product. We are so thankful for the family, friends, healthcare providers and retail partners who […]

CBD for Pets
We started giving our ten year old golden retriever, Digger, CBD oil several months ago, in hopes that it would help with his aches and pains. It wasn’t long before we noticed an improvement in his ability to get up and get moving in the mornings. His coat also seemed to improve. We found several […]

CBD oil vs. cream
People often ask if they should start with our CBD lotion for pain relief, or one of our CBD tinctures. Typically I suggest that if you are looking to purchase one product, start with a sublingual tincture in order to get CBD into your system, so that it can start working toward homeostasis in your […]

How much CBD should I take?
Another question that we get asked often is, “How much CBD should I take?” Like most other questions surrounding CBD, this one doesn’t have a simple, one-size-fits-all answer. If you start by looking at the label on a particular brand of CBD product you may, or may not, find any answer at all! Remember that […]

Spring on the Farm
So I know that I am a little late, that seems to be the story of my life these days! I know that summer officially started a few days ago, but I am still catching up from all of the activity of hemp life in the spring. As the school year wound down and the […]

What is the best way to buy CBD?
There are so many options for consumers looking for CBD products. People often ask, and I’m sure others wonder, “How do I know which product is best for me?” The best answer that I can give is to encourage people to do their own research. There is a ton of information available. Beware of sites […]

“What’s It Good For Anyway?”
I would have to say that the question we get asked most often about CBD is “What’s it good for anyway?” I always hate to tell people “It’s good for whatever ails you”, but the more I read, hear, and experience about CBD, the more things it seems to be helping people with. Just in […]

SKI-BD Sponsor Spotlight: Northeast Kingdom Hemp
As Vermont’s cannabis industry expands, the owners of Barton-based Northeast Kingdom Hemp are betting that their cottage, hand-processed hemp products will appeal to the state’s locally-focused consumers. To that end, the fledgling farmers have produced CBD-infused maple syrup, and are in the final stages of producing maple-flavored and “Berry Natural” sublingual tinctures. At Saturday’s SKI-BD event at […]
