Co-Founders Ben Meggs & Jeromy Sherman, longtime Houstonians, are excited for the future of the industry and are pleased to provide this service to the Great State of Texas.
The Texas Department of Agriculture Commissioner, Sid Miller, has appointed Bayou City Hemp Company Co-Founder Jeromy Sherman to serve on the Commissioners Industrial Hemp Advisory Council. "It is an honor to be on the council and act as an advocate for Texas farmers.

Using supercritical CO2 extraction, Bayou City Hemp Company will process hemp for CBD isolates & distillates to be used in a wide variety of products across several industries.

Located in the I-10 corridor on the west side of Houston, TX, Bayou City Hemp Company's facility will serve as a location where the company can easily receive shipments from farmers all over Texas and process hemp for sale and distribution. The facility is expected to be online in summer of 2020.
