As Oregon's hemp industry continues to expand, the need for expertise in harvesting and transportation of harvested biomass to specific value add services is clearly a critical step in the journey to arriving at a profitable business.  As the farmer wraps up the growing season, its important that the harvest of the crop is completed with skill and efficiency.  CHTC has formed partnerships with harvesting groups all over the state and if needed, CHTC will make the farmer aware of his / her harvesting options.

Once harvesting is in motion, CHTC would also like to make transportation recommendations to its farming partners.  It is important that your crop is harvested and transported professionally to insure that your hard work and the profits of your work is protected.

Baling of hemp plants / biomass is an excellent form of storing and preserving your crop in its natural state without the decay caused by the environment if you do not have the opportunity to dry your products immediately.  This service is particularly a great fit for those farmers who did not reserve or schedule a drying appointment during the growing season - reserving a guaranteed slot with CHTC.

Using our innovative drying methods/techniques. We offer solutions for drying your hemp crop no matter the size. We have a lower heat/gentler drying process located at our Corvallis drying facility and a high capacity/higher heat drying facility in Molalla, Oregon. We have tracked data to understand the drying process or hemp and the characteristics that coincide with the drying process.

Our 100,000 square foot, climate controlled facility will be our primary source of dry biomass storage. We also will be baling product this season and will store product dry and wet in bales as needed.

As a processor we use state of the art cryo-ethanol extraction techniques to process biomass into a full-spectrum, winterized, fully decarbed crude oil. Winterized crude removes the fats, waxes, and lipids from crude extract by cold filtering, in order to improve the color and transparency of the CBD oil, also making the concentration of cannabidiol much higher. In order to harness the therapeutic benefits of CBD, it must be decarboxylated before its consumed. Decarboxylation “activates” the CBD in order for consumers to be able to experience all of its therapeutic properties.
