OUR TEAM
FOUNDERS
Our principals (Seth and Eric Crawford) have 30 years of combined cannabis production experience and bring unique skill sets to the hemp industry.
Eric earned two degrees from Oregon State University (Horticulture and Environmental Science), then founded and successfully sold a leading Eugene-based sustainable landscaping construction company.
Seth earned degrees from OSU (BA (English), MPP (Public Policy)) and from the University of Oregon (MS and Ph.D. (Sociology)), published research on the political economy of cannabis, and is a recognized cannabis policy expert. Both were cannabis breeders and medical growers before entering the newly legalized domestic hemp industry in 2015.
Today, these southern Oregon brothers operate one of the world’s leading, wholly independent cannabis breeding companies, with research and production sites dotting the rolling hills of Oregon’s picturesque Willamette valley. Oregon CBD has been lucky enough to grow into a true cast of characters, all of which are the heart and soul of our operations. As our company continues to grow we will continue to look for new faces to join our team, please inquire below.
