Protect Local Hemp Products From Corporate Takeover

One Last Favor From Your Local Hemp Farmer

I’ve spent the day out on the farm, hands in the dirt, working the same land that has supported our family and our community for years. As I sit down to write this, I’m tired, I’m emotional, and I’m asking you for something I never thought I’d have to ask:

For the past seven to eight years, we’ve built Redfern Hemp with one simple goal: to help people and their animals feel better with honest, safe, farm-grown hemp products. Many of you have been with us from the beginning. You’ve watched us adapt and change our business plan every six months just to survive shifting laws and regulations. Through it all, you’ve stood by us.

You’ve heard our voices fighting for you, because everything we do here, we do for you. But now, the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been.

They Want To Turn Us Into Criminals

The products we make – our dog treats, creams, tinctures, gummies, cookies, and chocolates – are being targeted by new regulations. These aren’t dangerous street drugs. These are products that you, your family, and your pets use every day for comfort, relief, and peace of mind.

Yet the message from certain lawmakers and powerful interests is clear: if we keep doing what we’re doing, we become criminals. And if you keep buying from us, you become one too.

I live on a farm. The cow in the field produces the manure that nourishes the soil, that grows the plants, that become the products you trust. This is a living, breathing, local ecosystem. But in a matter of months, they’re saying that this land, these plants, and this work could all be reclassified as criminal activity.

Not because we’ve hurt anyone. Not because our products are unsafe. But because it doesn’t fit the plans of powerful corporations and Wall Street-backed interests who want to control what you can buy, where you can buy it, and how much you’ll pay.

This Is Bigger Than Just Our Business

Redfern Hemp isn’t a faceless corporation. It’s a small team, a family, and a community of customers whose stories we carry with us every day.

We’ve heard from:

  • People who finally sleep through the night.
  • Dogs who can walk without pain.
  • Families who have found gentle, natural relief without turning to harsh alternatives.
  • Neighbors who want to support local farms instead of distant investors.

When I look at the team we’ve built and the family we’ve become with our customers, I know this is bigger than any one company. This is about choice. It’s about who gets to decide what you can put in and on your body: you and your local farmer, or a handful of big corporate interests.

And right now, that choice is under serious threat.

What We’re Asking You To Do

We don’t want to go to jail for growing plants and making safe products that help people. We don’t want you to be treated like a criminal for choosing local hemp over corporate marijuana.

We are asking you, one last time, to stand with us.

Here’s how you can help:

  1. Contact your Governor: CLICK HERE
    Tell them you support local hemp farmers and small businesses like Redfern Hemp. Explain that our creams, dog treats, tinctures, gummies, cookies, chocolates, and tinctures do no harm to you, your family, or your community. Tell them these products are a part of your daily life and your well-being.
  2. Contact your State Representatives: CLICK HERE
    Share your personal story. Let them know how our products have helped you or your pets. Ask them to protect safe, local hemp businesses from being crushed by regulations that only benefit large, corporate players.

Your voice matters more than you know. When enough people speak up, lawmakers have to listen.

Why This Matters Now

We are up against Wall Street-sized money and influence. There are big marijuana corporations that would love nothing more than to see small farms like ours pushed out of the way, so they can sell you something more expensive and, often, of lower quality.

They want a world where your only option is to pay an arm and a leg for products that don’t have the same roots in your community, your land, and your values.

We want a world where you can still drive by the fields where your products are grown. Where you know the people who make them. Where you can look at a jar of cream or a bag of dog treats and know it came from a farm that cares more about your well-being than a quarterly earnings report.

From Our Family To Yours

Writing this is hard. Saying that we might not be here next year is harder.

We don’t want to go out of business. We want to keep growing the plants that become the products you rely on. We want to stay here on this land, working with the animals, the soil, and the seasons, providing something real and good to our community.

From everyone at Redfern Hemp Co:

Thank you. We love you. We appreciate you more than you know. If you’ve ever bought from us, shared our products with a friend, or told us your story, you are part of this family. And right now, we’re asking our family for help to stay alive.

Please, contact your governor and your representatives. Tell them what Redfern Hemp means to you. We will keep fighting to the very end to protect your right to choose local, honest, farm-grown hemp.

GRAHAM REDFERN

Owner & Hemp Farmer

Before I became an American hemp farmer and entrepreneur, I first heard of the hemp industry during a period when my construction business thrived, but the housing crash of 2009 changed everything. While visiting Asheville, North Carolina, I encountered a groundbreaking green building – a house made 90% from hemp, from the flooring to the walls, excluding only electrical components and appliances.

Intrigued, I consulted with Andrea Herman, president of the Hemp Industries of America, spending an hour and $150 to understand the challenges of building such houses in the U.S.. When Andrea explained the steep costs preventing widespread use of U.S.-grown hemp, it ignited a passion in me. I questioned, “Why not?” This moment became a catalyst for my deep dive into the hemp industry.

Passage of the Farm Bills

In 2014, the passing of the Farm Bill allowed universities to grow hemp, prompting me to shift from the car industry. Initially unsure of my path, I invested in penny hemp stocks and connected with the Virginia Industrial Hemp Coalition, working with universities such as JMU, UVA, VSU, and Virginia Tech to explore potential markets.

For four years, restricted by regulations to work with universities, I delved into the banking industry. When the 2019 Farm Bill dismantled barriers, allowing American farmers to cultivate cannabis plants with less than 0.3% THC, my dream took a leap. Redfern Hemp Co. was born, marking the legal sale of hemp products in Virginia for the first time in over seventy years. With my girlfriend Courtney, we hustled – attending state fairs, cultivating hemp on our 42-acre Caroline County farm, and navigating the burgeoning industry. Fast-forward to 2023, and despite being one of the few companies remaining, we face challenges.

Unfortunately, Virginia lawmakers have strained our efforts, declaring federally legal cannabinoid-derived hemp products illegal unless sold by a select few medical marijuana operators.

In the face of Virginia’s attempt to monopolize medical marijuana, we persist in expanding cannabis job opportunities for all Virginians.

We champion Virginians’ rights to affordable, high-quality products, battling against restrictive legislation. It’s disheartening to see the government hindering the benefits of this plant, including job creation and increased taxation.

Restoring Virginia’s Hemp Farming Legacy

There was a time when Virginian hemp farmers paid taxes with hemp. Reintroducing low-dosage, safe cannabinoid products in smoke shops, convenience stores, and local markets could restore this tradition on a broader scale than a handful of licensees. We’re committed to reclaiming this birthright, enabling Virginians to pay their taxes with hemp once again.
