Quality and quantity are pillars of every consumer business, but when a company couples them with key virtues like honor, passion, gratitude, joy, and commitment, it likely sees new heights. That’s exactly what we found out with Blue Forest Farms, a reputable CBD brand that deals in CBD extracts, flowers, and seeds. Our experience with this particular brand was excellent, awarding it a total of 81 out of the possible 100 points. Various discounts, product varieties, a well-organized and easily navigable website, in-depth third-party testing, accurate lab results, and various means of reaching the brand’s customer service desk are only a few of our top picks for this company.
About the Company
If you happen to visit Blue Forest Farms for the first time, you will come across the ‘devoted to quality, committed to the future’ slogan. This minority-owned CBD brand launched in 2016 believes that hemp and CBD extracts have the answers to almost every health problem, including genetic issues. Consequently, it has invested in a large payroll team comprising farmers, extraction professionals, scientists, researchers, and geneticists, all of whom are committed to giving the brand’s consumers high-quality premium products, which they are not only proud of but happy to pen their names on.
The company takes pride in four core values; joy, passion, passion, and lifestyle. The cumulative effects of believing in the four virtues drive it to commit to using passion-driven innovation and genetics to continuously improve its products and give its CBD family a reason to smile.

Manufacturing Process
Blue Forest Farms’ manufacturing process starts with picking non-GMO hemp from their 100% certified-organic farms in Colorado. Once they reach the manufacturing facilities, the hemp is subjected to CO2 extraction, the safest ad cleanest extract removal process per the cGMP guidelines. The method uses low thermodynamic points, allowing the hemp fiber to settle in layers of terpenes and different cannabinoids (including CBD, CBD, CBN, etc.), hence the isolates, broad-, and full-spectrum CBD products the company boasts. Besides, this supercritical extraction technique filters off residues and most contaminants, which is why the brand’s products are pesticide-free.
After extraction, the resultant broad-spectrum oil undergoes formulation with the easily digestible MCT oil to increase CBD bioavailability once the product gets to the system. This enhancement is followed by third-party testing, a safety, and control step that examines the extracts against the indicted THC and CBD potencies. It is at this stage that the products are also tested for specific contaminants, including pesticides, to ensure they are pure. Blue Forest Farms continuously uploads these results online, and you can access them by clicking the ‘Quality Control’ link.
Customer & Buying Experiences
We loved our experience with Blue Forest Farms. First, they are committed to in-depth third-party tests and readily avail the results on the website to be easily accessed by clients. Most of the products passed the potency test, but one had a 12% deviation, which was slightly higher than the 10% acceptable variance limits. We have to mention that the site was easily navigable and provided two ways of shopping; using the ‘Shop Now’ link or selecting individual products on the main page. Several discounts were available at the time of the review, including 25% off for first-time buyers.
Transparency, Accuracy, and Reputation
Admittedly, Blue Forest Farms is a well-rounded CBD brand that strives to be all-encompassing. Regarding accuracy, transparency, and reputation, we are pleased to say that the company did well. Its transparency was outstanding in the manner in which it avails all third-party potency test results online. Besides, the site has lab reports for purity forests, although some batches, including whose products we ordered for the review, did not have their reports ready. Most products passed the potency test and were within the 10% acceptable limit. However, one item had a 12% deviation, slightly surpassing the acceptable variance, and Blue Forest Farms needs to improve in this regard.
Furthermore, the brand did well in the reputation sub-rating. Its team of scientists, researchers, botanists, geneticists, and extraction professionals brings a cumulative 40 years’ experience, which perfectly resonates with the high-quality premium products they offer. As if that’s not enough, Blue Forest Farms is highly reputable for donating 10% of its total revenue to non-profit making organizations regionally and globally. This is inspired by their commitment to their core values- joy, passion, honor, and dedication to quality.

Blue Forest Farms product lines are well-rounded and include;

- The average price point of $0.13 per mg CBD is slightly higher than what other GMP-compliant brands of the same caliber offer
- Purity laboratory results for some of the products we ordered could not be availed on time and throughout the review
- One product slightly exceeded the 10% acceptable variance limit because it posed a 12% deviation
- The website lacked an ‘About Us’ section that would provide more details about the brand
- Some products did not have batch numbers
Our Overall Verdict
Since its launch in 2016, Blue Forest Farms has tried to engage its team of botanists, geneticists, researchers, and extraction experts to give its consumers the best. The website states the brand’s core values, including joy, honor, dedication to quality, and passion, all of which apply to producing high-quality premium products. It offers free shipping for all orders, 25% off for first-time buyers, and a 30-day money-back guarantee to allow clients to return products on the grounds of dissatisfaction and seek a full refund. Moreover, it has a relatively elaborate product line comprising isolate, broad-, and full-spectrum CBD products. Although it has a wide price range of $24.99 to $299.99, its average price point of $0.13 is slightly higher than other brands of its caliber. With ironing of the few kinks, Blue Forest Farms will enjoy an even larger loyal customer base.
