February 2020 - Understanding CBD OIL

















Guest Speaker: Austin Brockway – Owner of A & O Organics and Natural Selections Apothecary

While CBD oil has yielded positive results for many, this product has elicited a lot of questions too. Hopefully through discussion and testimony we can clarify a few things so you feel more comfortable understanding what the hype is all about and what to watch out for.

What is CBD Oil?
CBD (cannabidiol) is the healing compound found in the hemp plant. Hemp plants, unlike their cousin marijuana, contain very little to no THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the psychoactive compound responsible for the high experienced with marijuana use. In CBD oil, there are low numbers of THC (less than 0.3%) and higher numbers of CBD. This is what makes this oil so special.

You may remember Austin from our Secotan Farmers Market – pop-up market and presentation in November. She will have a supply of balms, oils, and tinctures for you to try and purchase.
