WELCOME TO THE BRINKERHOFF FAMILY FARM!
CULTIVATING A DREAM TEAM NATURALLY FARMED
With the goal of revolutionizing cannabis growing in Colorado, the BFF team made the trek to the hotbed of marijuana growing; Humboldt County, California. There they met some of the globe's foremost experts in natural farming and cannabis cultivation. Today, two of those top industry leaders are now proud members of the BFF Naturals Team.

to BFF, he led multi-faceted real estate companies developing large scale
projects in the USA and Mexico. As owner, he has developed exquisite resort
properties under the Wind River Land Company umbrella. As Founder and CEO of
Corporate Properties of the Americas (CPA), Mr. Brinkerhoff positioned CPA to

he isn't making great strides towards revolutionizing cannabis cultivation in
Colorado, James loves hiking in old
growth forests and taking high altitude strolls.
Michelle P. Brinkerhoff Founder, COO
Michelle
brings thirty years of accomplished sales and marketing experience spanning
four countries to BFF Natural. Her products were often conceptually
new-to-market requiring a unique story that set her products apart from the
others. She is particularly adept at transmitting the value of a unique product
into a story that illuminates the exceptionality of
the product experience.
Her marketing, sales and economic development experience has equipped her with the ability to look far beyond the present. As Chief Operating Officer, Michelle impacts every facet of the BFF Natural business. An innovative thinker, she is quick to adapt to current market conditions and get out in front of old trends in order to meet the needs of tomorrow's valuable customer.
