Just made my first order ever. Got a bottle of CBD Gold.
They don't make things too easy for you. They show a box to check for the discount code, but it does nothing. After many repeated attempts, I accidentally dragged my mouse over the sentence next to it and saw it hit a 'hot spot' and I clicked. THAT is what it takes to open the discount code box. I wonder how many people give up after messing with it as long as I did?
Also, they make it super difficult to put your credit card in. I pay a lot of bills online so I store my card number and copy and paste it many times a week when online. The spot for the card number will not allow you to copy and paste. That means I had to go get a pen and copy down my number and enter it manually. Now, I know some of you are laughing at me for having to do "all that work". But . . . I judge CVSI for all the public relations things that make shopping easy. EVERY account I have online allows me to copy and paste my CC number. Not this one. If I owned the company, I would change that.
Enough of all my 'news'. My order number was 195155, for those of you who keep track of this.

Here, on the eve of Christmas Eve, I want to take the time to extend a warm greeting of
Merry Christmas
to those on this board who have befriended me and sent me personal supportive messages over the past months.
To those of you who are pro-CVSI, I also send you the same greeting.
May we all enjoy our families and friends during these holidays, and may we PROSPER in the New Year!!!
Mike in Kentucky

Our stock and other related hemp/mj stocks are all going down today, as is the overall stock market. We are just paralleling with them. It's a sad day in investorland no matter how you look at it. Just having hope that January will see big rebounds.
This is a follow up to my post about Dr. Bronner's Soap being advocates for legalization of hemp and pushing the Farm Bill. These are David Bronner's words, the grandson of the founder of the company. He sure did HIS share of suffering to help get this done!
------------------------------------------------------------------
Dr. Bronner’s was a founding architect of the Hemp History Week campaign in 2010, with the goal of growing the hemp market in the US. In partnership with fellow hemp product manufacturers, Hemp History Week has helped educate millions of American consumers about the benefits of hemp products, and built grassroots momentum in support of the crop’s legalization. We remain a sponsor of Hemp History Week, soon to be celebrating its 10th year, June 3-9, 2019. Vote Hemp estimates that annual retail sales for hemp products in the U.S. have grown from $452 in 2011, to $820 million in 2017.
I also twice took part in direct action protests, and was arrested, in order to draw public attention to the outdated and misguided drug policy that prohibited American farmers from growing hemp. In 2009, I and five fellow hemp advocates, including Eric Steenstra of Vote Hemp, symbolically planted hemp on the front lawn of the DEA Museum. In 2012, I protested the federal prohibition of hemp farming by locking myself in a uniquely crafted steel cage resembling a jail cell along with live hemp plants in front of the White House, and proceeded to harvest the seeds and press them for oil while explaining the purpose of this act of protest to all who gathered, including international media.
With the foresight that Kentucky would become a leader in the agricultural production and manufacturing of hemp products once the crop became federally legal to cultivate, Dr. Bronner’s donated $50,000 to the Kentucky Industrial Hemp Commission in 2012, funding the group’s efforts to structure a firm foundation for the hemp industry in the state. Today, Kentucky is a leading producer of hemp—a lucrative alternative for farmers exiting the declining tobacco industry.
Where is that big surprise announcement that was supposed to come after the signing of the Bill?
Dr. Bronner's Soap Company (great stuff!!!) just put this announcement out. Now, they can buy their hemp here and not be sending their money to other countries.
------------------------------------------------------------------
After nearly two decades of our company’s tireless efforts to legalize hemp farming in the United States, our work has finally paid off. Today, the Farm Bill was signed and passed into law, allowing farmers to grow hemp nationwide for the first time on U.S. soil in 48 years.
Hemp is a versatile plant that can be used for food, clothing, building materials, paper, fuel, and medicine—it is stronger and more durable than cotton, yet requires less space and less water to grow. In 1999, Dr. Bronner's reformulated its castile soaps to include hemp seed oil for a smoother, more moisturizing lather and we can now, finally, source our hemp oil domestically!
We would like to congratulate everyone who has been part of this effort. This has been largely a grassroots effort and we're so proud to celebrate this long-awaited victory with you. We would also like to say a special thanks to Vote Hemp, the non-profit organization whose outstanding advocacy work over the past twenty years has led us to this victory.
Thank God, the FB is signed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We made it, guys and gals!!!
