Virginia’s state bird apparently didn’t get the memo. 😂🌿🐦

While Virginia h**p farmers and small businesses navigate an increasingly complicated regulatory environment, this female cardinal showed up at our Virginia h**p farm with a much simpler approach:

See h**p. Eat h**p. Fly away.

No paperwork. No compliance meeting. No QR code. No lawyers. No committee hearing. Just Virginia’s own state bird helping herself to a Virginia-grown crop.

So naturally, we had to give her adventure the wildlife-documentary treatment.

Behind the humor is a serious story. Virginia h**p farmers and small businesses have spent years investing in agriculture, creating products, employing Virginians, paying taxes, and adapting to changing regulations. Once again, the rules are changing—and the consequences for Virginia’s h**p industry are very real.

But sometimes you have to laugh at the absurdity of it all.

From our farm in Virginia:

The farmer needs a lawyer.
The product needs a laboratory.
The package needs a rulebook.
The cardinal just eats the bloody plant.

In Memory of Jim Peacemaker ❤️

Six years ago, Jim Peacemaker came into our lives at Redfern, and somewhere along the way, he simply became family.

Jim didn’t work for us. He didn’t have to be there. He was there because he wanted to be.

And somehow, he was always there.

If something broke, Jim would come help fix it. If we needed an extra set of hands, he showed up. If somebody needed help, he would drop what he was doing and come. There was no clock to punch and no paycheck waiting for him. That was just Peacemaker.

Over the years, he became something of a granddad to all of us. He especially looked after the girls around here, always keeping an eye out for them, making sure they were okay and reminding them that somebody had their back.

He worked harder around this place than people who actually worked here sometimes—not because anyone asked him to, but because he cared.

There are countless things we could thank Jim for after six years, but what we will remember most is simply that he was there.

He showed up for us. Again and again.

You don’t come across many people in life who give that freely of themselves and expect absolutely nothing in return.

We lost Jim this week, and Redfern won’t ever feel quite the same without Peacemaker around.

Thank you, Jim, for every project, every repair, every favor, every laugh, every story, and every time you dropped what you were doing because one of us needed you.

But most of all, thank you for choosing to be part of our family.

We love you, Peacemaker. We’re going to miss you more than we can say. ❤️

🌱 **Joe breaks down another piece of Virginia’s h**p story that deserves more attention.

H**p is more than THC. It’s agriculture.

As Joe explains, some h**p varieties can produce high levels of cannabinoids while still remaining within the legal THC threshold. H**p can be grown for grain, fiber, cannabinoids and more — and understanding that matters when we talk about how this plant should be regulated.

As Virginia shifts cannabinoid h**p oversight away from the Department of Agriculture and toward the Cannabis Control Authority, we have to ask:

**Are we starting to forget that h**p is an agricultural commodity? **

These decisions don't just affect products on a shelf. They affect the Virginia farmers growing the plant, the businesses creating products from it, and the future of an industry that was built around far more than getting high.

That's why Joe keeps educating — and why we're going to keep having these conversations. 🌱

Virginia h**p doesn't start on a store shelf. It starts with the farmer. 🌱

Our h**p is grown outdoors — in Virginia soil, under Virginia sun. But as Virginia continues reshaping h**p and building its future cannabis market, we need to ask what kind of agricultural system we're actually creating.

If regulations push cultivation toward limited indoor canopy models focused primarily on flower, what happens to the rest of the plant — and the farmers who built businesses around using it?

The trimmings and biomass from h**p can support an entire range of products: non-intoxicating topicals, pet products, CBD products and more. Those cannabinoids shouldn't have to disappear from the marketplace simply because they aren't part of the traditional "flower" model.

If a non-intoxicating h**p topical can sit on a shelf at a major retailer, why shouldn't the cannabinoids used to make it come from a Virginia farmer?

This conversation is bigger than THC.

It's about agriculture.
It's about small businesses.
It's about using the whole plant.
And it's about making sure Virginia's next set of rules doesn't leave Virginia farmers behind.

Regulation should protect consumers **without destroying the agricultural ecosystem h**p was supposed to create.**

🌱 Protect Virginia farmers.
🌱 Protect h**p agriculture.
🌱 Revisit Virginia's h**p laws.

Virginia changed h**p—but it didn’t change the fee.

After drastically reducing what h**p retailers can legally sell, Virginia still requires businesses to pay a **$1,000 annual registration fee for every retail location** carrying regulated h**p products.

Think about what that means for a small store considering compliant h**p:

Pay $1,000 before making the first sale—then try to recover that cost from a product selection Virginia has severely restricted.

**Less product.
Less earning opportunity.
The same $1,000 barrier.**

This doesn’t encourage new businesses to enter the compliant market. It makes stores question whether carrying legal h**p is financially possible at all—and that directly hurts Virginia manufacturers, retailers, farmers and consumers.

If Virginia is serious about supporting responsible, compliant businesses, lawmakers must reconsider the h**p law as a whole.

**Revisit the h**p bill.
Call a special session for h**p. **

Virginia is for lovers? Not anymore. Apparently, Virginia is for 2mg of total THC per package—because nothing says “public safety” like forcing adults to buy more packages while small businesses absorb the cost. 🙃

Virginia, we can do better. Save H**p.

Virginia h**p businesses were told to adapt in 2023.

So they did.

Virginia established stricter rules, required age verification for regulated h**p products, imposed new packaging and testing requirements, and preserved a 25:1 CBD-to-THC pathway that allowed qualifying full-spectrum h**p products to remain on the market.

Businesses reformulated. They changed labels. They changed packaging. They changed the products on their shelves. They spent the money necessary to comply.

The message seemed clear: **Follow these rules, and there is a path forward for compliant h**p in Virginia.**

Then, three years later, the rules changed again.

In 2026, Virginia eliminated the 25:1 exception and imposed a 2mg total-THC-per-package limit on covered h**p products.

And that raises a question worth asking:

**If a business follows every rule the state puts in front of it, how many times can you completely rewrite those rules before compliance itself becomes impossible? **

This conversation shouldn't be reduced to “gas station weed.”

We're talking about an entire h**p industry—including farmers, manufacturers, retailers and businesses that invested heavily in becoming compliant with the rules Virginia previously created.

There should absolutely be rules. There should be testing. There should be responsible sales practices and protections for minors.

But regulation and elimination are two very different things.

Virginia found a way to regulate full-spectrum h**p in 2023.

So why wasn't improving that system an option in 2026?

This fight was never supposed to be about just one business.

Graham Redfern helped create the Cannabis Small Business Association because small businesses, farmers, manufacturers, retailers, and consumers deserve a voice when decisions are being made about the future of this industry.

Redfern H**p Co. has been part of Virginia’s h**p industry for years. We’ve grown with it, adapted with it, invested in it—and when necessary, fought for it.

That means investing time and resources into lobbying, education, advocacy, and making sure lawmakers hear from the people actually affected by these decisions.

Not because we expect special treatment.

Because we want a fair chance to survive.

And this isn’t only about businesses. It’s about the consumers who have relied on these products, the employees whose livelihoods depend on this industry, and the Virginia small businesses trying to do things the right way.

We’re still here. We’re still educating. And we’re still fighting for a path forward for Virginia h**p.

Virginia officials say the new 2mg h**p cap is about public safety.

So let’s talk honestly about safety.

Virginia’s own health data says smoking causes approximately 10,300 adult deaths every year—plus another 1,600 deaths from secondhand smoke.

Alcohol was linked to an estimated 3,667 Virginia deaths in 2020. In 2025 alone, Virginia recorded 6,152 alcohol-related crashes, 4,778 injuries and 248 deaths.

To***co and alcohol remain legal for adults. Virginia regulates them through age restrictions, warnings, licensing, taxes and enforcement.

So where is the public evidence showing a comparable crisis caused specifically by compliant 25:1 h**p products, full-spectrum CBD or natural h**p flower?

Instead of presenting that evidence and holding a conventional hearing on the final language, officials placed this permanent industry-wide restriction inside a massive budget compromise. Businesses and consumers were given only weeks to absorb the consequences.

Now compliant businesses are losing inventory, farmers are losing markets, consumers are losing trusted products, and adults can apparently still purchase twenty-five separate 2mg packages to obtain the same 50mg total.

How does multiplying packages, prices and waste solve the safety problem?

We support age restrictions.
We support accredited testing.
We support child-resistant packaging.
We support accurate labels and strong enforcement against unsafe sellers.

But public safety should target actual risks and bad actors—not erase full-spectrum products, natural flower and an entire compliant industry.

Virginia leaders: call a special session. Restore 25:1 as an immediate bridge, then create targeted, evidence-based rules that protect consumers without destroying Virginia h**p.

Most people don’t realize Virginia’s new h**p law affects h**p flower, too—and the numbers show just how severe the disadvantage is.

Virginia now limits an entire package to just 2mg of total THC.

For perspective:

🌿 1 gram of flower testing at 0.3% total THC contains approximately 3mg.

🌿 A standard 3.5-gram container contains approximately 10.5mg.

That means even one gram can exceed Virginia’s package limit. To sell 3.5 grams in one compliant package, the flower would need to test at approximately 0.057% total THC or less.

The plant may legally qualify as h**p based on its concentration, yet become nearly impossible to sell once placed in an ordinary retail package.

This isn’t reasonable regulation. It places Virginia farmers and compliant small businesses at a severe disadvantage while taking trusted products away from the people who rely on them.

We support testing, responsible labeling, age restrictions and sensible regulation—but the numbers must make sense in the real world.

Virginia, this law needs to change.
