Hi all! I have gotten my license to cultivate hemp on a large scale but im trying to figure out hpw to find a proccessor and distributor before next season so i can plant knowing its not going to be thrown out … anytime i look up "how to find a distributor ny) or “can i sell to dispensarys with hemp or do i have to actually go through companys to do it all after harvest” just things i need to figure out before next season and i cant seem to find anything other than getting your own proccessing license. Does anyone have knowledge on what to do here ? could i go to local smoke shops and ask how they get the hemp they have? (NY requires you to grow 2 years of hemp before they allow a mass scale marijuana grow) My goal is to get this figured out before the end of 2022 
thank you for any help
Congrats on your new license!
Much success with your endeavor 
Hey bud, I think this is what you’re looking for:
Thank you a lot for this , probably pretty easy to find online 
Thank you i appreciate it
Glad to do anything I can to help a new farmer
Dunno if this is helpful too: Dispensing Facilities | Office of Cannabis Management
Also Cornell has a bunch of good info for hemp and new farmers generally, their “Beginning Hemp” info sheet on this page is currently outdated and being updated, but it’s got a lot of stuff specifically about the grower/processor relationship.

And this is their small farm help page:
Thank you a lot man ive just realized i didnt get back to you on this but thank you a lot man youve helped me a lot:pray:
My farmer buddy has the ok from the state to grow hemp and I think it would be very interesting to see how he goes about it…For the past 2 yrs. he’s been growing my strains just to grow, he doesn’t smoke or use pot he just wanted to grow it… @BigSmokeFarmsLLC would you happen to have any pix from start to finish on your legal hemp grows?
Here’s some pix of my farmer buddy who’s been growing my strain for the past 2 yrs. and it wasn’t legal.
