Charlotte's Web is a pioneer in the CBD industry, offering full-spectrum hemp extract products like tinctures, gummies, capsules, topicals, and pet treats, all derived from proprietary hemp genetics grown on U.S. farms with a focus on quality, transparency, and third-party testing for potency and safety. Founded by the Stanley Brothers in Colorado, the company was inspired by Charlotte Figi, a young girl with severe epilepsy whose story with their CBD oil helped ignite the national conversation on cannabis therapeutics, turning a grassroots effort into a major wellness brand.
