Progress Report: 1.13.23

Grasshopper Family,

It's Friday the 13th! Almost halfway through January?!

Yes. These days seem to move faster and faster.

The team is continuing to work through the harvested flower - quality control, testing, fulfilling orders. They are in an amazing groove.

Last week I alluded to something special brewing. Well, here it is! We had a great year of sales with our 2021 flower and prerolls. However, the prerolls had to be done collaboratively. Well, that just changed. We brought the capability in-house! And, this is not the standard cone preroll found in the market. It is more like a hand rolled preroll. AND, we have awesome tin packaging that will live on beyond the product inside. The team got trained on the machine this week. The first orientation day produced 420 prerolls...without trying to aim for that number. More signs. They got the machine dialed in and LOVE the product, both in look and how it smokes. There are very few of this type in the market. So, we will enjoy a period of joining the first early adopters.

Oh...and one more thing. We are going to offer this as a multipack. Five different prerolls inside of this magical package. Some states have this. Michigan does not. New Jersey does not.

Grasshopper Farms will.

Cloning has begun! The 2023 season kicked off this week with cutting our clones to produce the Mother Plants that will eventually supply the clones that will head outside! This is a MONUMENTAL milestone and we are VERY proud.

We have a great shot of Austin in the breakroom that I had to share.

Two pictures from New Jersey. One of the landing in the Mother Room and the second is of the completed insulation in the Mother Room. Things are moving along quite nicely!!

Lastly....Clint and Laura got engaged!! We are so happy for them. She has been with Clint since way before the beginning of Grasshopper Farms and it's awesome to be able to share their joyous announcement. Congrats!!

This is a weekend in which we remember Doctor Martin Luther King Jr.. To me, the day honors a man who believed in a day when equality of humans, all humans, was not only achievable, but inevitable. We all just need to believe and operate with kindness and assumptions of positive intent.

Have an incredible Friday and weekend!!
