Fender'S Blue Hemp

Fender’s Blue Hemp was founded by Aaron Williams, alongside his life partner Mackenzie, who discovered the power of hemp throughout his healing journey. Aaron made it his mission to share with others how cannabinoids, such as CBD, have helped him recover. As a collegiate football player, Aaron suffered many injuries and multiple surgeries that resulted in daily severe chronic pain. Searching for something to relieve his discomfort, he discovered hemp products that contain a high CBD potency and other cannabinoids to relieve some of his pain, stiffness, and inflammation. Aaron loved that CBD products came without any negative side effects that he often felt with stronger pain relievers. Aaron knew that if he could produce the products he was looking for, he could help others in his position, such as other former athletes and members of his family, specifically his mother, Jennifer, who suffers from a number of rare health conditions. Aaron dove head-first into the hemp industry, starting an 8-acre farm in Philomath, Oregon. Farmed by renowned veteran USDA Organic growers Dai Crisp and PK McCoy, who operate Lumos Wine Co., Fender’s Blue Hemp has undergone and achieved the same rigorous standard, which allowed the farm to be one of the first certified organic hemp farms in the country. Additionally, all products are certified vegan by Vegan Action, ensuring that our products are free of animal products, animal testing, and animal GMOs. Decorating the hillside just above the farm is the Kincaid’s Lupine, a native Oregon flower that serves as a host plant for Fender’s Blue butterflies. The farm is named after these beautiful, endangered butterflies that Dai, PK, and their neighbors have been committed to preserving in concert with the phenomenal work of the Institute for Applied Ecology in Corvallis, Oregon. One of our goals is to help continue this legacy of ecological stewardship.
