Biomass Processing
If you’ve grown hemp, Blue Forest Farms can work with you to process your plants into bulk oil.
Bulk CBD Isolate
Isolate typically refers to CBD isolate, however scientists have been able to isolate other cannabinoids like CBG and CBN. This means they contain a specific cannabinoid and that cannabinoid only. CBD isolate is typically 99+% pure, with absolutely no other cannabinoids terpenes. Isolate is also unique in that it comes in a crystalline powder form. Because it contains no other compounds, isolates are a great option for those looking to create products in states where THC is totally illegal or for those looking to create extremely precisely dosed products.
Bulk CBD THC Free Distillate (Broad Spectrum)
Scientists believe there are over 100 cannabinoids found in hemp. When talking about the “spectrum,” we’re referring to the spectrum of cannabinoids that will be present in the oil. THC free distillate contains the full spectrum of cannabinoids, except for THC. THC free distillate extracts also typically retain the natural terpene profile of the plant, which offer their own benefits while creating an attractively flavored product. Because they contain multiple cannabinoids and terpenes, broad spectrum bulk oils allow consumers to experience the entourage effect– a theory that says the various compounds in hemp and marijuana work synergistically to produce unique effects.
Crude
Blue Forest Farms can provide you with crude or winterized crude oil from your plants.

Hemp Extraction Methods
CO2 Extraction
CO2 extraction uses smaller amounts of hemp and filters plants through temperature and pressure controlled chambers. Cannabinoids are isolated at a 90% efficiency. CO2 is non-toxic, meaning it will not leave any harmful residual solvents.
Ethanol Extraction
Ethanol extraction is a single-stream process that produces extracts under warm or cold conditions. It is cost-effective, safe, and creates high quality products.
Hydrocarbon Extraction
This method utilizes hydrocarbons, typically butane or propane, to strip cannabinoids from plant material, while preserving the plant’s terpenes and flavonoids. The result is a pure, aromatic, flavorful extract.

What Sets Us Apart?
THC Free – Full Spectrum
This concentrate has undergone a molecular separation process that results in a completely THC free full spectrum hemp oil. This product has natural terpenes from the hemp plant and has a rich profile of background content (trace phytocannabinoids that offer a lot of therapeutic, economic and research value). This premium grade product is fully activated, and contains 0% THC.

Isolated CBD
This concentrate is 99%+ pure isolated CBD. This can come in a larger slab type crystal, or can come powdered These crystals are pure white crystalline CBD from industrial hemp. 0.00% THC.
Full Spectrum Distillate
This concentrate offers a very balanced profile of phytocannabinoids from hemp. Contains no impurities, pigment or terpenes. Vapor distilled and winterized. Typically 35-50% CBD, 2.5-3% CBG, .6-1% CBG, .5-2% CBN. .5-1% CBC, and many other phytocannibinoids, (4-9% THC from industrial hemp). Contains complete qualities of the plant, offering the highest therapeutic value due to highly concentrated levels of cannabinoids, that interact with the indigenous cannabinoid system.
