Our Story
Our Story
Founded on the principles of compassion, precision, and honesty. Bullhead Botanics was established from a recognized need for CBD products that are effective, easy to use, and easy to understand.
Compassion
We started Bullhead Botanics because we saw a need for transparency in the CBD market. For me personally, I've used cannabis products to support many of the health and wellness issues I've encountered throughout my life. I'm an avid outdoorsman. Soreness, pain, injuries, and overall "hurting" has been a common theme in my life. As my doctor visits started adding up, and as I found myself taking more medications without relief, I decided to give CBD a try as a more natural alternative to gaining a better quality of life. I found the powerful anti-inflammatory properties of CBD offered relief in many aspects of my physical and mental wellbeing.
However, finding reliable products that worked every time was almost impossible. I just couldn’t seem to find any consistency. Upon closer inspection, I realized the issue was that they hardly contained any actual CBD! Essentially, I paid $100 for a very small bottle of hemp flavored cooking oil. I felt cheated, scammed, and frustrated.
Unfortunately, I've heard this story over and over again when talking to people about CBD. No one wants to use something they can't trust or understand. However, due to minimal regulation in the CBD industry, almost anyone can label a mystery elixir and call it a CBD product. Ensuring others were getting what they were promised became my mission.
Bullhead Botanics believes you should be treated with Compassion.
Precision
As a CBD user, I want the ability to accurately and easily take the amount of CBD I need. With traditional tinctures, measuring out droppers of oil can lead to inconsistent dosages, making it difficult to replicate each time. If I want to increase or decrease the amount, I want it to be accurate and easy. When I want to repeat a dose and get consistent results, it needs to be accurate and easy. So then the question is, how do you accurately and easily dose almost any medication? I realized that answer was tablets.
I thought, “How do I take the simplicity, safety, and ease of an over the counter medication and incorporate that into a CBD product?”
It seemed like a simple solution, but it wasn't. We spent countless hours of research and development figuring out the best way to get high quality CBD and other Cannabinoids into tablets that perform effectively and taste great, and we continue to improve them everyday with better performing natural ingredients.
The ease and convenience of our tablets allows you to dose accurately, consistently, and almost anywhere. No worries of measuring out oils, looking for a quiet place to vape, or having to eat a sugary, sticky, and possibly melted gummy.
Bullhead Botanics gives your CBD routine Precision.
Honesty
All of the other dietary supplements I take (vitamins, minerals, etc.) undergo a thorough process of checks and balances to ensure they're accurate and safe. We believe CBD should be held to the same standards. So that's exactly what we do. Our products are manufactured to the same standards the FDA requires for dietary supplements, and we have the certifications to prove it. We aren't required to, but to us it's extremely important that our customers have this peace of mind and confidence.
Everything is designed and manufactured in our facility we built from the ground up, following Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP). This ensures everything that goes into the products is verified and safe, and all final products are third party lab tested.
Our labels clearly and transparently broadcast the amount of CBD in each product. There’s no guessing, and no math calculations to be done. What you see is what you get.
Bullhead Botanics products are made with Honesty.
We apply the same concepts to our topicals and cosmetics. We strip away dozens of the unnecessary fillers found in many lotions and creams today, and make products that feel great with the added performance of high potency CBD.
And we'll continue to always apply the same principles of Compassion, Precision, and Honesty for every product we make.
What's with the Fish?
Around 1916, my Great Great Grandfather TJ bought a parcel of land in Northeastern Pennsylvania. It was a pasture at the bottom of a valley. All the creeks from the surrounding hills flow downhill into this valley. It was wet, swampy...and I'm sure it was smelly. TJ got the grand idea to dam up the end of this pasture, and soon a very large pond began to form. Eventually this large pond grew into a small lake, and what does every lake need?
Fish of course.
One of TJ's favorite fish was the "Bullhead". A resilient, tough, and surprisingly tasty type of catfish common in the area. Bullheads are so resilient, TJ and his friends could catch a bunch of Bullheads at a neighboring pond, load them into his car's trunk filled with wet hay, and drive them all the way back to the lake alive and well to unload into the murky water. They survive the harshest winters, the warmest summers, the floods, and the droughts. The slimy substance they produce to protect their skin has long been used as an ancient remedy for healing wounds, cuts, and bruises.
Our family still catches Bullheads to this day at the lake, over 100 years later. The long history of family gatherings fishing for Bullheads is something I've valued for my entire life. The bond of friends and family we've had for generations at our small nature preserve is unbreakable and resilient, just like the Bullhead itself. That's why we chose our favorite fishy friend as our mascot. It's a symbol for healing, resiliency, and happiness all around. They're also cool lookin'!
Bullhead Botanics is a family owned and operated business, and we treat it with the same care and hard work that TJ and future generations have put into the lake for the past 100 years.
