Our Process

1. Farming Organically

Every product starts with our exclusive hybrid strains of Phytocannabinoid-rich (PCR) hemp. All of the hemp we use is grown in nutrient-rich soil in the United States. Our farmers operate under strict guidelines and use only 100% organic practices.

We take advantage of a state-of-the-art farming process. Not only does this enhance the quality of our natural proprietary strains, but it also makes sure our products are safe, regulated and unsurpassed in their potency and consistency.

2. Processing Raw Hemp

The plants we use are dried and warehoused after they are harvested. When we need a plant for production, it is milled into a coarse powder. The milling process adheres to the highest quality standards in the industry. Once processed, it is shipped to our processing and manufacturing facility here in Colorado.

3. Proprietary Extraction and Solids Separation

We use a proprietary hemp extraction and purification process. This makes sure that all of hemp’s beneficial Phytocannabinoids, terpenes and flavoniods are preserved. It also gets rid of unwanted compounds
while preventing natural molecules from degrading. The result?The highest quality (PCR) hemp oil available.

Every drop of our phytocannabinoid-rich (PCR) hemp oil contains many of the cannabinoids present in the hemp plant. You will also find a variety of naturally occurring terpenes, flavonoids and amino acids. What this means for you is that Golden Tree’s products contain a broad spectrum of beneficial natural compounds. While CBD on its own offers many health benefits, a growing body of research has found that a product containing other naturally occurring cannabinoids and terpenes derived from hemp leads to multiplying benefits. This is called the Entourage Effect. But the process isn’t quite done. Once extracted, the oil is then pressed to separate most of the oil from undesirable plant solids like waxes.

4. Distillation

The oil is then distilled to separate the hemp extract from the food-grade ethanol used in the extraction process. In fact, we are one of the few facilities in the world that use this food-grade ethanol.

5. THC Extraction and Refining

One of the most important steps in the process is to remove even the most minute traces of THC. THC is the compound found in hemp and cannabis that produces the “High” associated with the plant.

We use proprietary technology to remove unwanted compounds still present in the oil. These compounds include wax, chlorophyll, plant pigments and trace amounts of THC. It is then “washed” and “polished” to create the highest quality, zero THC, broad spectrum CBD oil available.

Because our products are 100%THC free, we can ship them across state lines.
