Arbor Vita8

Arbor Vita8 is a seed to sale commercial hemp processor.

Our journey started as investors in a hemp cultivation project in California. We were growing 200 acres in an area where you could get three turns a year and our expectations were high. Our processor promised to come harvest our material once it was finished and told us that they had a buyer ready to purchase the oil. Everything was going to be great . . . until it wasn’t. It started with a low germination rate on the million seeds we purchased. Then over 30% of the plants were males and had to be ripped from the fields. At harvest, the crop tested hot. We had it tested again and thankfully we passed. On the same day, we figured out that the company who sold us the seeds and promised to harvest and sell our material had run off to Mexico. The problem now? No processors. We called and searched and every processor was booked. Finally, we found one company that was eight hours away who was willing to process our biomass. We rented a large truck but it could only hold 15,000 lbs of our milled super sacks. Our team dropped off the biomass and headed back. That was the last time we spoke to the processor. They ghosted us.

We are smart people who have been in business for decades. How did we end up here? If this happened to us, who else did this happen to? That’s when Arbor Vita8 was born. We saw the need, not only for farmers and manufacturers, but for the hemp business as a whole, to work out this bottle neck in our system. That is why when we built Arbor Vita8 we went big. The best dryers. The best extractors. A beautiful, clean, 75,000 square foot building on the border of Georgia and Alabama, built to make the industry better and help make our farmers’ and manufacturers’ businesses better. Our goal is to help people avoid the pitfalls we had in our farming days and use our in-house hemp cultivation and processing experts to grow your business.
