Episode 28: From Laid Off to Growing, Producing and Distributing Hemp with Caleb Kauffman of Lancashire Hemp

Hi everyone! Thanks for tuning-in today for a new episode of Entrepreneur Mindset-Reset.

In today’s episode, I am very excited to speak with Caleb Kauffman of Lancashire Hemp in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

Caleb shares his experience of PTSD and the need to address the impact on his life and career, and how he made the decision to dedicate his career to the growth, production and distribution of hemp and CBD products. Our conversation runs the gamut from mental health; his PTSD journey of healing; considering adding plant-based support for various ailments; and building a business out of his own experience and story. Caleb is very committed to making sure that people know they are not alone, and that we can all grow and heal alongside one another.  

You won’t want to miss when he shares his philosophy of providing good product at a fair price, and how it’s not brand recognition he’s after necessarily, but getting product to market. You may catch that his approach has helped diversify income streams and steadily grow the business. I love his co-op approach to micro-farming and supporting his local community while growing his business. Caleb is dedicated to supporting his community, his team, and anyone who who he believes would benefit from hearing his story and trying his product. 

So, grab a beverage or a snack and settle-in to listen to Caleb and his amazing journey.

Caleb’s Bio:

Caleb Kauffman, born and raised in the rolling hills of Lancaster county.  

My passion for hemp comes from my own life experiences. In my thirties I was diagnosed with PTSD from childhood sexual trauma. Since remembering this over 20 years later my life has been an intense journey of love, acceptance, venerability, perseverance, and a belief that at the very source of it all, that it, is good. 

Cannabis has changed my life. I first started using CBD and THC a couple of years ago and I immediately noticed how improved my mental life became. At the same time I started going to counseling to work through my trauma. Together with cannabis and counseling I began the beautiful journey of healing. 

My heart is to grow hemp flower with love and care because that is how cannabis has cared for me. My goal is to help save the planet with hemp.  I truly believe that this plant can completely change your life and also how we interact with nature. I have found a sacred work in being passionate about the cannabis plant. My hope is that I can grow some of the best hemp flower around and help others find healing in the process.
