Cofounders, Hemp Health, LLC

Boulder-based cofounders Sherman and Samel sell their hemp bars, protein powder, and seed oil in 3,000 stores, including Walmart and CVS. While researching the fledgling hemp industry, the pair discovered that hemp -- a variety of cannabis -- could provide farmers with four times the income of regular crops while using about half as much water.
