Talking Trees Farms is a Humboldt County cannabis cultivation and product company built around permitted farms, single-source inputs and environmental practice. Its products have included flower, pre-rolls, CBD vapes, solventless hash and infused pre-roll development. Retail availability is within California's licensed market.
Founder Craig Nejedly
Craig Nejedly founded Talking Trees in 2014 after building sustainability-focused apparel brand Satori Movement in 1998 and High Grade Distribution in 2004. He later opened Satori Wellness in Humboldt County. The official history says the group holds multiple cannabis permits and grew without outside investors.
Farm and water practices
Talking Trees says it uses organic methods and inputs, avoids chemical pesticides and relies mainly on captured rainwater and permitted wells rather than drawing from streams, creeks or rivers. One company interview described an approximately 80,000-gallon roof-catchment pond. These are practice claims, not an audited farm-wide water balance.
Products and single-source identity
Talking Trees markets cannabis and derived products from its permitted Humboldt farms, with package formats shown for flower and pre-rolls. Product development has also included bubble hash and rosin-hash-infused joints. When another processor participates, the label should identify both the farm source and licensed manufacturer.
Compostable packaging initiative
The company introduced compostable packages for selected products in response to cannabis plastic waste. “Compostable” depends on material, local collection and disposal conditions and may require an industrial facility. Consumers should follow the package certification and local waste rules rather than placing every pouch in a home compost pile.
Awards and competition record
Talking Trees won Best CBD Vape at the 2018 High Times Cannabis Cup NorCal, according to High Times. A 2019 Emerald Cup result also listed its mixed-light It's It pre-roll. These are specific product and event results, not evidence that every current product is award-winning.
Distribution and stores
The founder page historically reported distribution to more than 200 licensed California retailers through High Grade Distribution, while the current store locator lists cities and shops. Store totals age quickly. Confirm live inventory with the retailer and match harvest, package and laboratory dates before traveling.
