Beam echoed Tackett’s words. “On behalf of the city government, I want to welcome Green Leaf Relief to Cherryville,” said Mayor Beam. “We wish you all the best and look forward to your continued contributions to our community.”
Founder Jeff Williams Reflects on His Journey to Wellness
The opening of Green Leaf Relief is a personal triumph for founder Jeff Williams, who has been an advocate for the healing power of CBD. Speaking at the event, Williams shared the struggles that led him to discover hemp. A longtime construction worker who endured chronic pain from multiple motorcycle accidents, Williams was frustrated when traditional medical treatments failed to provide relief. “I was in so much pain that I wasn’t sure I’d make it to retirement,” Williams reflected.
Williams’ journey toward wellness began when he started experimenting with CBD. “I tried CBD, and it worked okay” he explained. Encouraged by his success, Williams delved deeper into the science of CBD, eventually creating his own pain-relief cream. What started as a personal solution soon blossomed into a thriving business. “I made it myself, and I couldn’t believe how well it worked,” Williams recalled. “I started sharing it with others who had similar problems, and they experienced the same results.”
Now, Green Leaf Relief offers a diverse range of CBD products, from topicals and tinctures to edibles, all designed to promote physical and mental well-being. The business has been in operation for four years and has expanded rapidly, with locations already in Maiden, Lincolnton, and Cherryville, with plans underway for a new location in Vale, NC. “We’re just getting started,” Williams said, reflecting on the future of his business. “We want to keep growing, but more than that, we want to keep helping people.”
Empowering Customers Through Education About CBD and Hemp
A key component of Green Leaf Relief’s mission is its dedication to educating the public about the benefits of CBD and hemp. Many people still have misconceptions about hemp, often confusing it with marijuana or associating it with recreational drug use. Williams and his team work to dispel these myths by creating an environment where customers can safely learn about hemp and its potential benefits.
“As a society, we’ve been taught that hemp and cannabis are bad,” said Pizza Paul, the general manager of the company. “But what we’re doing here is breaking that stigma and offering an alternative to synthetic pharmaceuticals. It’s about returning to natural, healing plants.” Paul emphasized that hemp-based products can provide relief from a range of health issues, including anxiety, sleep problems, and chronic pain.
The dispensary staff helps customers navigate product selections to find what suits their needs. “CBD affects everyone differently,” said Williams. “That’s why we listen to our customers to find the best options for them.”
CBD Products for People, Pets, and Beyond
Green Leaf Relief’s product offerings go beyond human health. The company also carries CBD products designed specifically for animals. Paul explained that CBD works with the endocannabinoid system, which is present in all mammals, including pets like dogs, cats, and even horses. “CBD can help your pets with everything from anxiety to joint pain,” he said. “We’re not just about helping people—we’re about improving the well-being of animals too.”
A standout product at Green Leaf Relief is “Jeff’s Wonder Cream,” a pain-relief cream made with a blend of CBD, cocoa butter, shea butter, and other natural ingredients such as turmeric and eucalyptus. According to Williams, the cream was originally created to address his own pain, but it quickly became a customer favorite. “It’s great for everything from arthritis to sore muscles, and it even helps with skin conditions like psoriasis,” he said.
Support for Local Artisans: Customers Create and Sell Products at Green Leaf Relief
One of the unique features of Green Leaf Relief is its commitment to supporting local artisans. Many customers have started creating products that are now sold in the store, with all profits going directly to the creators. This community-based approach provides a platform for local talent while contributing to the store’s diverse range of products.
Cherryville Embraces the Growth of Hemp and CBD
The ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrated a new business and the growing acceptance of hemp and CBD products in Cherryville. Many North Carolina cities now recognize hemp as a legitimate industry, seeing its potential for wellness and local economic growth.
Green Leaf Relief Poised for Expansion and Future Growth
As Green Leaf Relief settles into its new home, Williams and his team are eager to expand further. “We’re committed to providing high-quality, lab-tested hemp products to as many people as possible,” Williams said, highlighting the importance of future growth. “But more than growth, we want to build a community of people who believe in living healthier, more natural lives.”
