Craft Hemp
Craft hemp is a growing movement within the hemp industry, much like the craft beer revolution, with an emphasis on small-batch production, sustainable farming, and premium quality. Grown with care by independent farmers, craft hemp offers a more authentic and effective experience than mass-produced alternatives.
Less Anxiety, More Balance
Due to its low THC content, craft hemp significantly reduces the risk of anxiety commonly associated with THC. This makes for a gentler option, especially for those sensitive to psychoactive effects of THC.
Relaxation Without Intoxication
Craft hemp is rich in CBD, which promotes a sense of calm and relaxation—ideal for stress relief, winding down, or managing everyday tension—without clouding your mind.
Stay Clear-Headed
Whether you're working, creating, or socializing, craft hemp lets you stay grounded and alert while enjoying the soothing effects of cannabinoids. It's ideal for daytime use or anyone looking to stay sharp and functional.
The Ritual You Know & Love
If you've ever smoke cannabis, you’ll recognize the full sensory ritual of breaking apart a sticky nug, taking in the strong aroma, rolling a joint, or packing a bowl. Craft hemp gives you the same feel and flavor, just without the high.
Skunky, Pungent, and Aromatic
Don’t let the low THC count fool you - top-shelf craft hemp smells just as dank and terpene-rich as its high-THC counterpart. From citrusy sativas to gassy indicas, there’s a profile for every palate.
Therapeutic Benefits
Packed with CBD and other beneficial cannabinoids, craft hemp can help ease pain, inflammation, sleep issues, naturally.
Craft Hemp Types
Hemp vs Cannabis
Hemp and cannabis are the same plant, but the law separates them by THC content. Hemp has very low THC and used for CBD products, textiles, food, and wellness items. Cannabis (often called marijuana) has a higher percentage of THC, which creates psychoactive effects and is sold in licensed dispensaries for medical or recreational use in states where it’s legal.
High CBD, Low THC
Grown in small batches across the U.S., craft hemp is a variety of low-THC cannabis that’s rich in cannabidiol (CBD). These plants produce dense, resinous, and aromatic flowers loaded with beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes. When bred with strong genetics, craft hemp can deliver 10–15% CBD.
More Than Just Flower
Craft hemp is the foundation for a wide range of high-quality, full-spectrum CBD products including smokable flower, tinctures, gummies, drinks, and topical rubs.
Sustainable & Thoughtful Cultivation
Craft hemp growers are deeply committed to sustainable practices. Many grow in living soil, use organic amendments, and minimize water and energy use.

Craft Hemp Types
Cannabis plants are commonly classified into two primary cannabinoids: THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). These ratios influence both the effects and legal classification of the plant.
Type 1: High THC
This is the cannabis you find at dispensaries, known for strong psychoactive effects and most commonly used for recreational purposes.
- THC: 15–30%
- Low CBD
- May cause anxiety
Type 3: High CBD, Low THC
Commonly referred to as hemp, type 3 cannabis provides a calming relaxation without the intoxicating effects of the higher THC types.
- CBD: 10–20%
- Low THC: <1%
- Clear-headed, calming, non-intoxicating
Type 2: Balanced THC & CBD
Type 2 cannabis delivers both the psychoactive effects of THC alongside the calming, therapeutic benefits of CBD;, a balanced experience for those who want both.
- THC: 5-10%
- CBD: 5-10%
- Although lower in THC, Type 2 cannabis may still cause anxiety in some individuals.
Type 4: High CBG
Contains high levels of CBG with very little THC or CBD. CBG is known for its potential focus-enhancing and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Low THC & CBD
- Non-intoxicating, potentially therapeutic
