Kentucky Cannabis Company
Founded with Purpose. Trusted for Results.
Kentucky Cannabis Company (KCC) was founded in 2014 with a deeply personal mission—to help a child in need. When founder Bill Polyniak’s young son, Colten, was diagnosed with severe epilepsy at the age of three, he was prescribed the standard pharmaceutical protocol. When the initial anti-seizure medications failed to control his seizures, doctors turned to a combination of drugs that carried devastating side effects. The treatment began shutting down Colten’s internal organs, bringing him dangerously close to organ failure.
Faced with the very real possibility of losing his son, Bill sought a better path. He began researching natural alternatives—determined to find a safer solution. Out of that search came a breakthrough: a full-spectrum CBD oil that transformed his son’s life—and inspired a movement.
Kentucky’s First Cannabis Company
As Kentucky’s first cannabis company focused exclusively on non-intoxicating cannabinoids, KCC has led the way in producing safe, effective, and trustworthy full-spectrum hemp extracts. From the beginning, we’ve built our work on three principles: safety, efficacy, and transparency.
We use USDA-certified, locally grown hemp and advanced hydrocarbon extraction technology to preserve the full range of natural cannabinoids and terpenes found in the bloom of the hemp plant. This results in a robust extract that delivers the entourage effect—the synergistic benefits of multiple cannabinoids working together to support balance and relief throughout the body.
Products Families and Professionals Trust
For over a decade, our products have been trusted not only by families like ours, but also by doctors, veterinarians, and other health professionals who recognize the value of natural alternatives for seizure support, pain management, anxiety relief, and overall wellness.
With an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, Kentucky Cannabis Company has earned a reputation for integrity and consistency in a crowded industry. Every product is made in-house, from seed to shelf, ensuring unmatched quality and control.
Our Commitment
Today, Kentucky Cannabis Company remains a leader in medical-grade, full-spectrum CBD. Our commitment is the same as it was when we first began—to provide affordable, effective, and non-intoxicating cannabinoid therapy that helps people and pets live better, longer lives—naturally.

CBD for Pets
The Power of CBD for Pets
Just as cannabis has revolutionized human healthcare, it’s also making significant strides in animal wellness. CBD, a non-psychoactive compound derived from the cannabis plant, has been shown to provide relief for a variety of conditions in dogs, cats, and even horses. By leveraging the natural therapeutic properties of full-spectrum CBD oil, many pet owners are finding innovative ways to support their animals’ health and well-being.
CBD offers a natural and effective solution for managing a range of issues, including anxiety, pain relief, inflammation, and even seizures. One remarkable example is Picasso, the first horse to be weaned off pharmaceuticals and treated with full-spectrum CBD oil to manage seizures. Picasso’s story demonstrates the power of plant-based medicine in veterinary care. After struggling with seizures that conventional medications failed to fully control, Picasso’s owners turned to CBD as an alternative. Not only did the CBD help reduce the frequency and severity of his seizures, but it also improved his overall quality of life by addressing inflammation and promoting a sense of calm.
This breakthrough case highlights the potential of full-spectrum CBD oil for large animals, opening new possibilities for managing conditions in horses and other livestock. Just as with smaller pets, CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system, which plays a vital role in maintaining balance within the body. For animals like Picasso, this means better seizure management and fewer side effects compared to traditional pharmaceuticals.
As research continues to uncover the therapeutic benefits of cannabis for pets, it’s clear that this natural remedy is transforming how we care for our furry—and not-so-furry—friends. From dogs and cats to horses and beyond, CBD is revolutionizing animal wellness, offering a holistic approach to health that prioritizes safety, effectiveness, and quality of life.

Medical Cannabis
Medical Cannabis: A Pathway to Wellness
Medical cannabis has emerged as a promising treatment option for a wide range of medical conditions. Derived from the cannabis plant, medical cannabis contains various cannabinoids, including CBD and THC. However, recent research suggests that there are hundreds of other natural cannabinoids, each with its unique therapeutic potential. These compounds work synergistically to provide a comprehensive approach to wellness.
Patients turn to medical cannabis to alleviate symptoms associated with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and many other conditions. It offers a natural and effective alternative to traditional medications, often with fewer side effects.
