Our Story
A New Approach to Skincare & Wellness with Traditional Herbalism and Phytocannabinoids
Little Bird
Little Bird is a family-owned business from the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. We formulate artisanal hemp flower skincare and wellness products that utilize the entire hemp plant alongside traditional herbs and aromatherapy.
Our specialty lies in formulating with the often underappreciated hemp plant extracts. We use essential oil from fresh flowers and the resulting hydrosol from that distillation. In addition to high potency extracts via CO2 and distillation, we make our own whole-flower lipid infusions in order to utilize the raw, acid forms of hemp's compounds, resulting in a true entourage effect.
Our hemp flower and extracts are USDA certified organic and sourced direct from our partner farms in Oregon, USA. We like to blend in small-batches from our studio lab with a lot of attention to detail. This ensures that what you order is as fresh and active as possible when it arrives to you.
What We Believe
We believe in the profound connection between nature and us. We view cannabis as a beautiful, medicinal plant rather than an isolated compound or feared drug. Our conviction lies in the power of plants, and we're committed to creating products that are as close to their natural state as possible. Sustainability, authenticity, and holistic wellness are at the core of our ethos.
Our Story
We met surrounded by cannabis flowers. We bonded over their beauty and aroma which literally became the backdrop to our love story in Portland, OR.
Living and working on our cannabis farm during the height of recreational marijuana legalization in Oregon changed our lives forever. The experience deepened our respect for the entire plant while also instilling core principles about ethical entrepreneurship. These lessons continue to steer our standards and decision-making to this day.
Six years and one baby later we launched Little Bird, named in honor of our daughter, Wren. We want to share with you what we’ve learned about cannabis beyond just isolated compounds. There is so much to explore!
We avoid single use plastic
We exclusively use tree-free hemp paper for our packaging and printed materials! Our containers are glass and recyclable lids. We use recycled paper for our shipping materials, and paper tape with biodegradable glue backing.
Our Promise To You
We promise you safe and ethical formulation practices and transparency with all ingredients.
We are committed to purchasing raw materials that are sustainably grown, minimally processed, and organic. We spend countless hours vetting and building relationships with our suppliers. We try to support small and local sources when possible. In the end, quality over cost wins every time.
We avoid synthetic fragrances and ingredients that have been scientifically proven to harm humans, animals, or the environment. While it is our top priority to create products that help you feel good, it is just as important that we feel good about making them.
Our hemp flower and derivatives are always 3rd party lab tested for cannabinoid profile and contaminants and we routinely batch test our formulations for accuracy.
