Papa & Barkley’s “Declaration of Clean Cannabis” defines what consumers should look for in its cannabis and CBD products and invites the industry to join the movement for transparency and clean standards 

EUREKA, Calif. – Jan. 8, 2020 /AxisWire/ Papa & Barkley, the #1 California cannabis wellness company best known for its award-winning topicals and tinctures, released its Declaration of Clean Cannabisa set of principles that define the rigorous steps that their products undergo from soil to shelf in order to produce clean cannabis wellness products with premium ingredients. As the cannabis industry is still evolving at the national level, Papa & Barkley has the opportunity to lead the industry by example, while also educating consumers on what to look for when researching and purchasing cannabis and CBD products.  

We believe in clean cannabis as being at the core of what we do,” said Adam Grossman, Founder and CEO of Papa & Barkley. Our mission is to unlock the potential of cannabis to improve people’s lives, and we are committed to sourcing clean cannabis and making great products using best-in-class production methods.  

The Declaration of Clean Cannabis includes five key principles: 

  1. Organic and regenerative farming practices – Choose trusted farm partners in the U.S. who use native soil, organic and regenerative farming practices when growing both cannabis and hemp plants.   
  2. Solventless Avoid solvents and chemical extraction methods that yield isolates or distillates; employ a solventless whole plant infusion process that maintains the integrity of the plant and creates more effective products.  
  3. Whole plant infusion – By infusing the whole plant, it maintains the full spectrum of cannabinoids, terpenes, chlorophyll and valuable phytonutrients; naturally infused into products without the use of chemicals or adding terpenes.
  4. Clean ingredients – Supporting ingredients such as carrier oils, essential oils and beeswax are clean, conscientiously sourced and made with no residual chemicals. 
  5. Triple-tested by third-party – To ensure the product is clean throughout the process from soil to shelf, its crucial to test the product at three stages – the input cannabis plant material, the infused oil and the final blended product. 

“We applaud Papa & Barkley for challenging others in the cannabis industry to assess their supply chain, self-regulate and triple test to provide clean cannabis products,” said Aaron Riley, President of CannaSafe. “Their principles for clean cannabis ensure product efficacy, and we’re proud to work with Papa & Barkley and be a part of the movement for leading the standard of clean in the cannabis industry.”

LOS ANGELES, December 11, 2019 – Papa & Barkley. (the “Company”), a leading cannabis wellness brand on a mission to improve people’s lives by unlocking the power of cannabis, announced that it has released an origin story video meant to capture the evolution of the Company’s brand. In order to capture the heartfelt and authentic beginning upon which Papa & Barkley’s origin exists, they engaged Flowertown, a content publishing platform focused on changing the cannabis conversation from niche to mainstream.

“Flowertown captured Papa & Barkley’s brand DNA and Eureka, California roots and brought our story life through an emotive retelling of our brand origin story that differentiates our mission and values,” said Angela Pih, Chief Marketing Officer of Papa & Barkley. “As Papa & Barkley continues to grow and expand nationally, visual storytelling and branded video is an important medium to share the company’s unique mission-driven story through an education first approach.”  

Founded in 2016, the Papa & Barkley brand was inspired by the story of co-founder & CEO Adam Grossman, who formulated a cannabis-based balm to ease his father’s debilitating back pain in hospice, and which ultimately allowed him to return home. With a passion for creating trusted cannabis content, Flowertown used its expertise to bring this story to life and provide a window into how one of the industry’s most trusted brands came to be.

“Being familiar with Papa & Barkley’s team, their line of products and the impressive level of trust that their customer base has for them, partnering with them to produce this video was a no brainer for Flowertown,” said Jamil Bardowell, Managing Director for Flowertown. “Flowertown and Papa & Barkley are aligned in their core goals to educate consumers about cannabis alternatives for their wellbeing, so to help tell Adam Grossman’s incredible story was a privilege for our entire team.”

Using the content created by Flowertown, Papa & Barkley will distribute the content throughout the company’s various social media accounts including Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
