At Friendly Farms, we believe customers deserve more than premium THCA flower — they deserve clarity, transparency, and confidence when they shop.

The hemp industry can be confusing. Between federal law, state restrictions, cannabinoids, COAs, and product testing, it is easy to feel unsure about what is legal, what is compliant, and what can be shipped to your state.

This guide breaks down how Friendly Farms approaches legality, compliance, and responsible hemp-derived products.

The 2018 Farm Bill and Hemp-Derived THC

The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, commonly known as the 2018 Farm Bill, removed hemp from the federal list of controlled substances.

Under this law, hemp is defined as cannabis containing no more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight. That distinction is what separates federally compliant hemp from marijuana under federal law.

Friendly Farms focuses on hemp-derived products that are intended to meet this federal standard.

That means our products are reviewed, tested, and supported by documentation designed to help confirm compliance with applicable hemp regulations.

How Friendly Farms Approaches Compliance

Friendly Farms does not treat compliance as an afterthought. It is part of how we source, test, review, and offer products to our customers.

We work with licensed American hemp growers and trusted suppliers who understand the importance of quality, documentation, and responsible production.

Before products are made available, we rely on third-party lab testing and Certificates of Analysis, also known as COAs, to help confirm important product details such as cannabinoid content and Delta-9 THC levels.

Our goal is simple:

Premium products.
Clear documentation.
Responsible standards.
A better customer experience.

Why Third-Party Lab Testing Matters

In the online THCA market, trust matters. Customers should not have to guess what they are buying.

That is why Friendly Farms uses third-party lab testing to support transparency and product confidence. A COA can help show the cannabinoid profile of a product, including THCA, Delta-9 THC, CBD, CBG, and other naturally occurring cannabinoids.

For hemp-derived THCA products, this documentation is especially important because it helps customers better understand the product before they buy.

We believe premium hemp products should come with proof — not just marketing claims.

What Is THCA?

THCA is a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. In raw flower, THCA is different from Delta-9 THC.

When THCA is heated, such as through smoking or vaping, it can convert into Delta-9 THC. This is why THCA flower is often sought after by customers looking for an experience similar to traditional cannabis flower.

Friendly Farms offers hemp-derived THCA products that are selected with quality, testing, and compliance standards in mind.

Does Friendly Farms Ship Everywhere?

Friendly Farms ships to many U.S. states where our products are permitted, but hemp and cannabis laws can vary by state.

Some states allow certain hemp-derived products. Others restrict or prohibit specific cannabinoids, product types, or forms of THCA flower.

Because state laws can change, customers are responsible for reviewing their local laws before ordering.

To make shopping easier, Friendly Farms may restrict certain products from shipping to specific states based on current compliance considerations.

Why Some Products May Have Different Shipping Restrictions

Not every hemp-derived product is regulated the same way in every state.

For example, THCA flower may be restricted in one state, while gummies, edibles, or other hemp-derived products may be treated differently.

That is why product availability can vary depending on the item and your shipping location.

Friendly Farms works to stay responsible and intentional with where products are offered, so customers can shop with more confidence.

Sourced From American Hemp Farms

Friendly Farms products are sourced with quality in mind.

We look for hemp-derived products from experienced American growers and suppliers who understand genetics, cultivation, curing, testing, and compliance.

Great flower starts long before it reaches the customer. It begins with skilled cultivation, proper handling, careful selection, and a commitment to doing things the right way.

That is the standard we want Friendly Farms to represent.

Our Legal and Quality Standard

Friendly Farms is built around a simple promise: provide premium hemp-derived products with transparency, care, and responsibility.

That means:

Working with licensed hemp growers and trusted suppliers
Using third-party lab testing and COAs
Reviewing Delta-9 THC levels for Farm Bill alignment

Prioritizing customer education and transparency
Shipping discreetly and professionally

We do not want customers to feel confused or uncertain. We want them to feel informed, supported, and confident when they shop.

Important Note About Drug Testing

Hemp-derived THC products may still cause a positive drug test.

Even if a product is hemp-derived and Farm Bill compliant, many drug tests do not distinguish between cannabinoids from hemp and cannabinoids from marijuana.

If you are subject to drug testing, you should avoid using THC or THCA products.
