Search "Mr. Hemp Flower" and most of the results lead to a brand by that name. Good for them. But Wholesale Hemp Farms has its own Mr. Hemp Flower, and he's a real person. His name is Nic Johnson, and he's the farmer who grows the hemp we ship. Same name idea, very different setup. One is a brand. Ours is the guy walking the field in Wilmore, Kentucky.
Who Is "Mr. Hemp Flower"?
A few ways to read that question.
The literal answer is anyone who grows hemp flower for a living. There are plenty of them across the country. Some farmers grow under contract for big distributors and never see their plants from harvest to package. Others grow under their own label and ship directly to customers.
The internet's answer is mrhempflower.com, an online retailer that owns the search result. They sell hemp flower. They aren't us, and we aren't them.
Our answer is Nic Johnson. He's the farmer at our USDA Organic farm in Wilmore, Kentucky. He doesn't run the website. He runs the crop.
Meet Nic Johnson: WHF's Real Hemp Farmer
Most CBD brands don't have a farmer to introduce because they don't grow what they sell. We do. Here's who Nic is and what he actually does.
Nic's Background in Farming
Nic was a farmer before he was a hemp farmer. The land in central Kentucky has grown tobacco, corn, and forage crops for generations, and that's the soil he learned on. When he transitioned to hemp, he brought standard agricultural know-how with him: soil prep, irrigation, pest scouting, harvest timing, drying. Hemp is its own crop, but the underlying fundamentals are the same as any other plant grown in the ground for a living.
That practical background is why our flower comes out the way it does. Nic is a farmer who switched crops to hemp when the law allowed.
How Nic Got into Hemp
The 2018 Farm Bill is what made our farm possible. Hemp went from a controlled substance to a federally legal agricultural crop, and Kentucky was one of the first states with a real licensing program. Nic applied, got the license, and put the first plants in the ground that season. The farm has been operating continuously since.
He chose hemp for the same reasons farmers always choose what they grow: the crop fit the land, the regulatory window opened, and the demand was real.
What Nic Does Every Day at Wholesale Hemp Farms
The day-to-day at a working hemp farm doesn't look like a marketing photo. Nic walks fields. He checks plants for pests and disease. He pulls trichomes under a loupe to see how close the crop is to harvest readiness. He oversees the drying room temperature and humidity. He decides which batches make the cut to ship and which ones don't.
If you call WHF and ask a real farming question, the answer comes from him or someone working alongside him on that same farm. There's no separate brand team explaining what the farm did.
Why Having a Real Farmer Behind Your Hemp Matters
Hemp flower is an agricultural product. The plant decides a lot of what ends up in the jar. The farmer decides the rest. Here's what that means in practice.
From Seed to Wholesale: Nic's Direct Oversight
Most hemp on the market changes hands several times between the field and the customer. Grower sells to processor. Processor sells to wholesaler. Wholesaler sells to retailer. Each link adds a markup and removes a layer of accountability about what was actually grown.
Our setup is the short version. Nic grows the flower. We dry, trim, and pack it on the same farm. We ship it directly. When you buy from us, you're buying from the farm that grew it, which is what "farm-direct" actually means.
That's also why our hemp flower for sale is priced the way it is. There's no distributor markup baked in.
USDA Organic Certification: Accountability You Can Verify
USDA Organic on a hemp farm isn't a sticker we bought. It's a federal certification that audits our soil, our inputs, and our growing practices on a recurring basis. Synthetic pesticides and synthetic fertilizers are out, along with the rest of the USDA-prohibited substance list. What's in is organic-approved inputs and documented record-keeping for every step.
Nic farms to the standard that lets us keep that certification. That's a daily decision, not an annual one. It also means the COAs on our third-party lab results page are testing flower that came out of an organic field, not a conventional one with a rebrand.
We also stay inside the 2018 Farm Bill: every batch tests under 0.3% Delta-9 THC on a dry weight basis before it ships.
The Strains Nic Grows at Wholesale Hemp Farms
Nic chooses what we grow. The varieties on our site rotate by season, but two have become the strains people come back for. Both are part of our hemp flower collection.
Mothership: The Flagship Strain
Mothership is one of our heavier indica-leaning cultivars. The buds are dense, the terpene profile leans gassy with a sweet finish, and the flower trims up well for both jars and pre-rolls. It's the strain customers ask for by name and reorder on. Available now: Mothership hemp flower.
Orange Gas: The Crowd Favorite
Orange Gas runs on the brighter end. The terpene profile pulls citrus on the inhale with a fuel note underneath, which is where the name comes from. It's a sativa-leaning hybrid, and it's one of the strains we field the most repeat questions about. Pick it up here: Orange Gas hemp flower.
See the Farm for Yourself
We run a live farm camera on our property. You don't need to take our word that the farm is real, that the field is in Kentucky, or that someone is actually out there working the crop. You can watch it.
That's not a feature most CBD brands offer because most CBD brands don't have a farm to point a camera at. We do. The camera is one part of the 25-hour farm commitment we make. Real growing happens here every day, and the lab reports for every batch are public. Someone on the farm will answer your email.
If you want to talk to Nic or someone on the farm team about a strain, a batch, or the field itself, customer email goes to people who work where the plants grow. Not a call center.
