Realeaf Botanicals began as a dream in the heart of a Florida home, born from the shared vision of founders Trey and Cara Hammond alongside a close-knit team of two husband-and-wife pairs, two sisters, a mother-and-son duo, and lifelong friends. The brand launched exclusively in Illinois on September 10, 2024, with operations in Silvis, but their journey started much earlier.For over four years, this family-owned craft grow has been a labor of love and dedication, meticulously refining their processes to ensure that upon launch, their operations and products would set new industry standards. When licensing costs in Florida proved prohibitive, a legal consultant encouraged them to consider Illinois. After two and a half years of waiting and planning, they received their license and made the bold decision to relocate north.The creation of their Skyy Vape, Fyre Pre-Roll, and Rayne Gummy lines was inspired by unwavering faith—faith in the process, in the promise of the industry, and divine timing. Their heart-shaped, purple and green logo, designed as part of their original Illinois cannabis license application, symbolizes the love and commitment that drives everything they do.
Realeaf Botanicals' mission is multifaceted: to support the State of Illinois in its decision to legalize lawful cannabis products for lawful cannabis users; drive a diverse workforce towards professional growth and the realization of personal potential; and provide sustainable, organic, premium cannabis in small, hyped-up "craft" batches for Illinois residents.Their diverse local team, all with roots in the community, forms the heart of their operations, dedicated to producing premium cannabis products for cannabis lovers. This dedication to quality and community is more than a mission statement—it's the foundation of everything they do.Through their Charitable Giving Program, they support veterans, local families in need, individuals incarcerated for cannabis possession, cancer patients and research, and local emergency services including organizations like The Last Prisoner Project and Tunnels To Towers Foundation. Their commitment extends far beyond business, striving to make a positive impact that strengthens communities throughout Illinois.
What sets Realeaf Botanicals apart is their authentic family values combined with serious craft quality. This isn't just another corporate cannabis company—it's a genuine family operation with two husband-and-wife pairs, sisters, and a mother-son team all working together.
