About Us
WHO
Company
Nalu Botanicals is a hemp-derived cannabinoid company local to Kauai, HI. Our current product-line consists of various cannabidiol (CBD) products, however, we are working on expanding into cannabigerol (CBG) and cannabinol (CBN) products as well. We also offer solutions to other hemp farmers to use parts of the hemp plant beyond the flower and leaves. We have proprietary formulas such as a nitrogen-rich fertilizer made from the hemp roots, plastics made with the hemp skins, and hempcrete made from the interior stalks. Our goal is to create:
- Hawaii’s most sustainable and efficient vertically integrated hemp farm.
- Hawaii’s first OTCO/USDA certified Organic Hemp Farm.
- Hawaii’s first and only organic ethanol extraction center.
Team
Nalu Botanicals was founded by experienced entrepreneurs, legal professionals, political experts, hemp growers, hemp processors and compliance experts who have gained knowledge and intellectual property over the years in the hemp industry to develop successful systems in such a complex, confusing, and comprehensive industry. These now proven systems have been efficiently implemented to create a company poised for rapid growth in the soon to be $30 billion industry by 2030.
WHERE
Omao
Our farm and facilities are on the south shore of Kauai in a town called Omao. Our 10-acre farm is located on land that was once part of a 220-acre sheep farm.
Kauai
Kauai has always been an Agricultural place hosting companies in the pineapple, sugar cane and corn business. We feel our sample 5-acre farm will create a paradigm shift on the island as we foresee hemp to be the next highly lucrative crop.
Hawaii
Capitalizing on the ideal year-round climate, consistent sunlight, and cooling trade winds, Hawaii’s sugar plantations once cultivated over 220,000 acres of sugar cane. At the time, Hawaii supplied one-tenth of the sugar that was consumed in the continental United States!
On a per-acre level, sugarcane generated just under five hundred dollars in revenue. Comparatively, hemp-derived CBD generates as much as forty-five thousand dollars per acre. This is very exciting for both the State of Hawaii and the small farmer.
With thousands of different uses for industrial hemp, our company believes that hemp can fill the void that was left when the sugar and pineapple plantations ceased operations by ushering in a new era of agriculture and manufacturing in Hawaii. Hemp will become a vital part of the economy, and will relieve some of Hawaii’s dependence on tourism.
WHAT
Farm
Our Company is the first certified organic hemp farm in the State of Hawaii. We used Oregon Tilth as our certifying agency as it requires the strictest organic certification standards in the nation. We utilize Korean Natural Farming (KNF) in order to nurture and fortify the native microorganisms in the soil so that we do not have to use any pesticides or harsh chemicals. We educate fellow farmers on the soil restoration capabilities of hemp, as hemp has the ability to remove toxins from soil, giving new life to damaged farmland. We are available for remediation consultation and contracts. Contact Us.
Our outdoor-farm utilizes natural sunlight, fresh air, and Hawaiian Red dirt as found naturally here in the best climate in the world. Our farm is soon to be powered by solar and our water will come from natural water hundreds of feet below the soil creating a completely off grid farm.
Processing
Our CBD formulas begin with the cleanest, organic, non-pesticide, raw product possible such as organic cane ethanol and hemp biomass grown in organic soil and clean water.
We believe that standardized testing is necessary for public health, safety and education. Each of our products shall be tested prior to sale to ensure that the product is free of pesticides, heavy metals and contain no THC. A corresponding batch laboratory report will be available to the end-user.
WHY
Community
We feel that by working with local partners we will stimulate the highly beneficial Agriculture industry here in Kauai, creating an atmosphere of self-sustainability.
We feel it is important that we be an example and resource for other Hawaii hemp farmers. It is our goal to partner with other farmers to assist them in the various aspects of hemp farming, with an emphasis on drying and processing hemp biomass. Our commercial dryer is capable of drying a third of an acre in a 21-hour drying cycle. Our laboratory, will intake up to 70 acres worth of hemp biomass yearly while running a schedule of Monday-Friday from 9 AM-5 PM. Production and outputs shall be increased as demand requires. Please contact us if you are looking for a hemp processor. Contact Us.
Environment
Our company puts the utmost emphasis on reducing our footprint. In order to accomplish this, we will complete our state-of-the-art photovoltaic system in December of 2020, in order to sustainably power all operations. We have our own well onsite which will feed the plants with a gravity-based irrigation system. In compliance with our USDA organic certification guidelines, we use biodegradable materials 97% of the time. In our extraction lab, we will be capable of recapturing 97% of our consumables for reuses, leading to minimal waste. Our packaging will be eco-friendly.
HOW
Nalu has taken the data-heavy approach in the hemp industry. By collecting research data, our model can be replicated at other grow and processing sites, creating a scalable model poised for growth. Please contact us if you are interested in proven hemp data from a tropical climate. Contact us.

Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT IS CBD?
CBD (cannabidiol) is one of over 120 active chemical compounds (or ‘cannabinoids’) in the cannabis/hemp plant. It’s usually the second-most abundant cannabinoid in concentration, behind THC.
DOES CBD COME FROM CANNABIS OR HEMP? WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO PLANTS?
Cannabis and hemp are two different varieties or classifications of cannabis that come from the same species of plant.
Laboratory testing is required in order to distinguish between what is classified as “hemp” and what is classified as a “marijuana” plant. A cannabis-family plant is considered “hemp” by the United States Federal Government if the plant contains less than 0.3% THC.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CBD AND THC?
THC affects the brain by binding to naturally-occurring CB-1 receptors in the central nervous system. CBD is a differently-shaped molecule that binds to CB-2 receptors in cell and body tissues outside the central nervous system. THC is a psychoactive molecule, meaning it demonstrably affects the user’s state of consciousness. CBD is not considered psychoactive.
WILL CBD GET ME HIGH?
No, CBD will not get you high. It is non-intoxicating. THC is the molecule that binds to receptors in our brain and is the one responsible for the psychoactive effects of marijuana.
IS YOUR CBD SAFE?
Public health and safety is our primary concern when it comes to our product. We grow organically (USDA certified through Oregon Tilth), we test with Steep Hill Labs who carries an ISO 17025 laboratory accreditation. We are very transparent to the public and provide a batch-specific standardized certificate of analysis (COA) with our product to ensure that the consumer receives the highest quality hemp-derived CBD products. You will not find heavy metals, pesticides, or residual solvents in our products.
IS CBD LEGAL?
Yes, CBD is legal, but… under very specific conditions.
The legality of CBD can vary from State to State, but in general, one of the determining factors is whether the CBD is derived from hemp or cannabis.
In 2018, President Trump passed the 2018 Farm Bill, which removed hemp as a Schedule I substance and reclassified it as an “agricultural commodity” making CBD legal. However, the FDA still controls how it is labeled. In 2018, the FDA approved a drug called Epidiolex for patients prone to seizures. The active ingredient in this drug is CBD. Because of this decision, even if a CBD product meets the definition of “hemp” under the 2018 Farm Bill, it still must comply with the FD&C Act which prohibits the active ingredient of a federally approved drug from being added in any food or consumable products. Until the FDA clarifies their position on hemp-derived CBD, this relegates CBD to being marketed as a topical only, even though it is widely considered as safe for oral consumption.
IS OUR CBD NATURAL?
Yes, our CBD is a 100% naturally-occurring chemical compound that comes directly from USDA certified organically grown hemp plants. It is extracted from the plant using certified organic Cane Ethanol and is in NO WAY synthetically produced.
ARE THERE STUDIES ON CBD?
Thousands of scientific studies have been carried out specifically on CBD. Project CBD is a non-profit organization strictly dedicated to documenting the research progress on this incredible drug. The National Center for Biotechnology Information’s PubMed is a fantastic resource for finding scholarly articles concerning CBD and other cannabinoids.
WILL CBD SHOW UP ON A DRUG TEST?
A high-quality, reputable CBD product with minimal THC will NOT show up on a drug test. However, low quality or mislabeled CBD products may contain more traces of THC than they claim, in which case it is possible for a screening to pick up on the drug.
HOW DO I KNOW IT’S SAFE TO PURCHASE CBD?
To ensure the legality of buying CBD products, you need to make sure the company you’re buying from is reputable and that the product was made from industrial hemp with less than 0.3% THC content. Ask for information such as the lab reports and organic certifications.
WHEN CAN I PURCHASE NALU BOTANICALS PRODUCTS?
Our signature Water Soluble Waidiol Product will be available in nationally in February 2020. In the meantime check out product reviews!
