Blue Orchid, one of the most exciting cultivars we’ve ever created, took home the gold (1st place) while our ACDC took home silver (2nd place) in that same category and in the Hemp category another one of our new breeds, Oregon Guava, took home bronze (3rd place). East Fork Cultivars was also a finalist for the Regenerative Cannabis Farm Award.

Stumptown Coffee’s CBD Cold Brew Elixir is a collaborative effort with East Fork Cultivars, “one of Oregon’s leading craft hemp and cannabis farms,” per the press release. The three-ounce drink pairs the coffee company’s original Cold Brew concentrate—which is twice the strength of their regular Cold Brew—with 15mg of USDA organic “water soluble CBD extract.”

In the summer of 2018 we partnered up with Steward, the world’s first Crowdfarming platform for sustainably minded farms, and acquired 24 gorgeous acres adjacent to the original East Fork Ranch. This ranch expansion paved the way for our inaugural Farm Bill-compliant craft hemp harvest.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) recently released its 2018 "List of Prohibited Substances and Methods" with a new exception for the use of CBD. WADA governs which substances are approved and banned for the Olympics and sports organizations worldwide, so this is progress for athletes.

We're so excited to announce the launch of CBD Certified, East Fork Cultivars' free educational CBD program for dispensary staff. We've been digging into the scientific research, honing our content, and talking to knowledgeable folks from various part of the industry to get their feedback. We'd love to present to your dispensary and start the CBD conversation!
