About Us
It was 2016 and Straight Hemp founder Devin Alvarez found himself surrounded by opioid addiction. Friends and family alike were afflicted. It was when one of Devin's family members passed due to his addiction that caused movement. Driven by a duty to help, a passion for plant-based healing, and experience in the cannabis industry, Devin founded Straight Hemp and set the mission: improve people's lives through premium, pure hemp-based products.
Devin, a US Air Force Academy graduate, triple majored in Chemistry, Mathematics & Economics from Florida State University then received an MS in Environmental Science and Biotechnology from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University.
Devin moved to Colorado to join Agricor Labs as Quality Control Officer for the new and developing marijuana industry. Later he worked to co-develop testing and quality regulations with the State of CO and marijuana producers ensuring the right regulations were being set and products were passing potency, pesticides, heavy metals, bio-contaminants, and residual solvents testing. In 2018, because of the hemp plant’s natural healing properties, Devin shifted his focus to hemp.
It's now 2021 and Devin's journey to democratize a natural plant-based medicine to replace societal dependencies on pharmaceutical options continues.
Straight Hemp is a company founded with heart and a duty to help. We continue to operate from a place of compassion, activism and innovation. We provide substantial lifelong discounts to Active & retired military, First responders, Educators, Low income households and Individuals with long term disabilities. We also donate product and monetary support to several non-profit and activism organizations.
Superior Results Using Plant Synergy
Straight Hemp was started with a mission: improve people's lives through premium, pure hemp-based products. To that end we dedicated ourselves to producing the best CBD products in the industry — products that have the highest level of cannabinoids and terpenes in the industry and the most powerful Entourage Effect.
Better Plants, Better Process, Better CBD!
The Plants and Processes make a difference in crafting superior CBD formulas.
To make a better CBD product, the selection of plants and the processes used make all the difference. It all starts with the plants. Superior hemp bred and raised in Oregon, Colorado, and Vermont to produce superior essential oils as opposed to fiber. We use steam and C02 extraction to get the finest, lightest oils with the most potency as opposed to the alcohol extraction process used by many cheap CBD products.
If you’re looking for the best CBD for your needs, you’re in the right place.
