My name is Brandon Brown and I live and work in Sparta TN with a large hemp farm here locally of 4600 plants. Its name is Hilly View Hemp Farm.Our farming operation started in 1954, we are 4th generation dairy and crop farmers. This year we decided to diversify our farming operations and add industrial hemp to our crop portfolio. Industrial hemp has been a great addition and we have learned a lot from the first crop. Our current growing model is all organic. We use organic fertilizer produced at our dairy farm. Before planting, we had the soil tested by Way-point Labs for any heavy metals and pesticide residue which checked negative. In addition, the soil was tested for proper nutrients required to grow healthy productive hemp. Lastly, our water supply was checked for mineral levels and any harmful nitrates, chemical residue, bacterial or coli-forms which checked negative also. After determining we had safe soil and water to grow, we prepared our seed bed and planted our first hemp on raised plastic beds May 30th. Over 4,500 plants and three different varieties later, we started harvesting flower in September. We utilize a climate controlled facility for trimming and curing of all flower. All our testing is done by a 3rd party lab, New Bloom Labs in Chattanooga Tennessee.
