Is CBD legal in Arkansas? The short answer is yes! Today we’re exploring CBD Oil in Arkansas|Updated Guidelines.
We’re going back in time to 1923 – that’s the year where Arkansas supposedly banned cannabis and hemp.
Slowly, but surely after that, and some 100 years later, cannabis is taking it’s rightful place as medicinal and legal.
In order for cannabis to qualify as legal, a crop must contain less than 0.3% THC – the psychoactive ingredients that make you high.
There are no limits on the percentage of CBD – cannabidiol – the ingredients of the cannabis plant that do NOT make you high.
Another big difference is that only Doctor approved and prescribed patients can legally purchase cannabis from a licenced dispensary in Arkansas.
Patients must carry a card, and have to be suffering from severe pain, seizures, and the like to be able to consume medical marijuana.
Yes! Hemp and CBD are legal for everyone in Arkansas. This includes CBD oil (with less than 0.3 % THC, don’t forget), and CBD products infused with oil are legal too.
Another interesting stop on the timeline of the legalization of CBD in Arkansas is that the Department of Agriculture has apparently licensed over 100 hemp farmers to grow hemp!
Now, legal dispensaries are growing, and more and more people have access to CBD.
Reform advocates are currently trying to legalize marijuana for all adults over the age of 21.
If this is passed, Arkansas will become one of the first southern states to legalize marijuana.
Not knowing where to get CBD oil can be challenging – especially when trying to find a proper, legal and quality CBD oil.
As long as you know a few key and important factors, you’ll be able to find CBD oil that works for you!

CBD Broad Spectrum or CBD Isolate, which contain zero traces of CBD are your best buds here.
Broad Spectrum simply means that there is zero THC ( the psychoactive compound that gets you ‘high’) and some terpenes are not extracted.
Terpenes are natural chemicals found on the cannabis plant responsible for aroma and taste like limonene (lemon) and myrcene – which can be found in hops and has a peppery, spicy, balsam fragrance – like in beer!
They can make edibles taste wonderful, especially when you’re cooking.
CBD Isolate is CBD in it’s purest form, without any terpenes extracted whatsoever.
If you’re looking to try CBD and CBD products that are legal, you can purchase them from your local health and wellness dispensaries or licensed retailers.
You can also purchase CBD online through specific websites, as long as the products contain less than 0.3% THC.
CBD may help in one or more of the following health challenges or conditions:
The type of CBD oil that’s derived from hemp oil is what’s legal at a federal level (as of the 2018 Farm Bill) and therefore allowed to be taken across state borders, and, yes, on flights within the USA.
According to the laws, If the THC percentage is below 0.3 percent, it is ok to order CBD from any other U.S state, because it falls under the “hemp” category.
There are many wonderful CBD products available in the States.
CBD Capsules or CBD Oil are great ways to start using CBD in a controlled, manageable way.
You can also enjoy CBD edibles like gummies or CBD cocktail mixers – which contain zero traces of THC.
