We currently offer 10% OFF transactions for Veterans and 1st Responders (Fire, Police, EMS). Customers must present Proof of Employment or Service at each transaction to receive discount.
We offer a few different forms of product:
- FLOWER:
- Whole Flower (Flower, Bud)
- Whole Flower, commonly referred to as Flower or Bud, is the flower of the cannabis plant. Flower may appear differently depending on the individual cultivar. Some may be large and fluffy, others tighter and rounder. These products may be utilized in a wide variety of consumption methods!
- Littles
- As we sort through our bud, those that do not constitute the full size of Whole Flower will be trimmed, packaged, and sold as Littles for a high quality product at a lower price! Littles may still be ground and smoked/vaped or used for homemade edibles and extractions!
- Trim
- Trim is the remaining product after Whole Bud and Littles are dried, cured, and trimmed. Trim is still a consumable product, best utilized in a dry-herb vaporizer. Trim may be smoked directly but may often be harsher on the throat and lungs. Trim is also a great product for homemade edibles!
