Santa Barbara, CA (May 1, 2025) – Happy Chance, the wellness brand known for its food-first, holistic approach to cannabis, has launched a groundbreaking line of functional hemp capsules, combining solventless hemp rosin with adaptogens and functional herbs to deliver clean, targeted support for calm, focus, and sleep.
While hemp edibles have traditionally meant sugary gummies or tinctures, Happy Chance is charting a new course—offering capsules as a modern, trusted, and better-for-you format that aligns with consumer trends already proven in the broader supplement space.
“We’ve watched brands like Arrae, Hilma, and Love Wellness shift consumer behavior toward clean, functional capsules,” says founder Katherine Knowlton, a private chef and lifelong wellness advocate. “But in hemp? This format barely exists. We’re here to change that.”
Each capsule is formulated with full-spectrum solventless hemp rosin—pressed with heat and pressure (never chemicals)—and blended with synergistic botanicals like lemon balm, lion’s mane, and ashwagandha. Designed to support daily rituals and real results, Happy Chance capsules are:
Sugar-free and additive-free
Vegan, gluten-free, and made with whole-food herbs
Targeted for function: Energy & Focus, Sleep & Calm, and Relief & Relax
Made in small batches using local, sun-grown hemp
“Happy Chance is not just launching a product—we’re building a new category in hemp,” Knowlton adds. “Our capsules offer the benefits consumers want—clarity, calm, and control—without the sugar, inconsistency, or synthetic ingredients found in most edibles.”
This new product line follows the success of Happy Chance’s original fruit bites, launched in 2022. The brand’s evolution into supplements reflects both consumer demand and Katherine’s culinary roots—rooted in whole foods, clean ingredients, and love for the land.
The name Happy Chance is inspired by her family’s farm, where a wooden bear greets visitors at the top of the driveway—a symbol of joy, integrity, and a grounded connection to nature.
