Texas family-owned company recognized for quality, transparency, and consumer-first innovation
Botany Scientifics, a Texas-based hemp wellness company, has been awarded “Top Full-Spectrum Hemp Products 2025” by Cannabis Business Insights Magazine. The accolade reflects the company’s leadership in quality standards, precision dosing, and pioneering consumer education in the hemp industry.
Founded in 2019 by Chris Oppenheimer and his family, Botany Scientifics is built on the guiding principle: “soil first, plant second, community always.” Every product — from tinctures and gummies to topicals and Delta-8 offerings — is formulated with organic, vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO ingredients. The company is known for rejecting substandard harvests and working exclusively with FDA-compliant facilities to guarantee product consistency.
“This award validates our commitment to doing things the right way,” said Chris Oppenheimer, Founder and CEO. “People trust us because we never cut corners — when they take our products, they know exactly what they’re getting every single time.”
A Family Mission Rooted in Integrity
Botany Scientifics is more than a company — it’s a family mission. Chris co-founded the business with his late father, Cliff Oppenheimer, a Vietnam veteran whose resilience continues to inspire the brand’s values. After Cliff’s passing, Chris’s mother, Shirley, a cancer survivor and former Mary Kay executive mentored by Mary Kay Ash herself, stepped in to help guide the company. Their legacy is one of honesty, education, and service to the community.
Empowering Consumers Through Education
Beyond product excellence, Botany Scientifics has earned recognition for championing consumer education in the hemp space. The company provides detailed dosage guides and launched “Ask Ashley” — an initiative led by nurse Ashley Lee, RN, BSN, CCRN, who offers personalized product and dosing guidance. A Medical Advisory Board is also being formed to expand evidence-based support for customers.
A Leader in a Changing Texas Market
This award arrives during a defining year for Texas hemp. In June, Governor Greg Abbott vetoed Senate Bill 3, protecting access to THC-containing hemp products, while later issuing an executive order tightening standards around sales, testing, and labeling. For Botany Scientifics — a long-time advocate of compliance and transparency — these developments affirm the company’s approach and commitment to responsible growth.
“Hemp isn’t a fad,” Oppenheimer added. “It’s a proven way for people to take control of their health. Winning this award shows our peers recognize the care and dedication we put into every bottle and every interaction.”
