Progress Report: 10.27.23
Grasshopper Family,
The final October updates!
I had so much content this week that I had to pull some of it out and some of the pictures too! This was an INCREDIBLE week.
And this is a FOUR STATE update edition!
Before we get into the four states, I wanted to highlight something that has been a long time coming in Michigan. We just completed the driveway apron, which was a requirement that we needed to fulfill. They were able to get this done just before the cold weather and frost.
Let's start in New Jersey. On Tuesday we received a unanimous vote and first cannabis license issued in Galloway Township. This is a HUGE milestone that took over one year. With 70% of municipalities initially opting out and a very slow licensure process, this is an incredible opportunity. Now we will complete the construction, ask for our final inspections, and join the extremely limited cannabis market of New Jersey.
Minnesota is done with their drying and has transitioned to bucking. Jamie and Seth have done a great job going through their first grow season and are now embracing the post harvest process. These are hemp plants and will be sold into the CBD market while we wait for the adult use regulations to be issued from the state.
Colorado is DONE CUTTING! The team is overjoyed. They have had a fantastic season, surpassing their own goals. I am in awe of what they have accomplished.
And then Michigan. This team is on absolute fire. They are fueled with the end of the cut-day tunnel in sight. The quality is our best yet. We are passing compliance tests without remediation. We have an unprecedented amount of pre-sales activity and commitments. Sales have started flying out the door.
So much goodness!
Our Puerto Rico partners were on site this week and were very complimentary of our GHF knowledge and hospitality.
We were featured in another round of articles. We do our best to share all of them via our social channels.
The sunrises and sunsets continue to impress and inspire.
Wrapping up this week, we have a brand new Grasshopper! Jack and Maddy welcomed Charlie into the world on Monday. Such a blessing.
We are in the flow of serious momentum. We are honoring it. We are nurturing it. We are managing it carefully.
It is often said that people believe in what they build. Grasshopper Farms is exemplifying this very concept.
Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!!
