Progress Report: 3.11.22
Grasshopper Family,
Once again, lots to share!
We are up to 13 retailers! I have to say....this is exciting. We are holding our ground and finding the right retailers who will be a good fit for the marathon, not the sprint. We also had a reorder from Consume Cannabis!
Adam, Kayla and Victor are conducting a vendor day at Consume Quincy! They are there....right now! Log on to Facebook and Instagram to see them go live!
Who is Victor, you ask? Glad you did! He is our first college intern! He is a senior at Michigan State and excited to be interning with Grasshopper Farms! He spent his spring break (this week) working with our new plants, processing our retail flower, and now at a vendor day. We have another intern from University of Massachusests getting ready to join the team as well! I think we might be the first licensed facility in Michigan to offer an intern program and we are excited to take this step!
More transplanting of our mother plants took place this week. And, we are on the cusp of moving from occupying one room to two! We are moving full steam ahead!
Feedback from the Marley brothers and their band - they LOVE our flower! We will see if anything comes of it. But, that is awesome feedback! Speaking of feedback, this is what EVERYONE is saying about our flower! This is why we know we have to be patient and focus on quality and consistency. Building a brand is hard. It takes lots of work. Patience will get us there!
New Jersey took another step. We received a request for two more very simple documents, which we turned in within a couple hours of notification. I still think it is unlikely that we will get one of the first licenses. But! It is great that we only had to submit a little more.
Cleaning continues as we get all of the rooms ready for this next round of plants. The whole team has been doing an incredible job inspecting and preparing all spaces for the 2022 season! We even have a new boot scrubbing solution!
We met with more of the vendors that will be at Reggae on the River and I believe we have a positive path forward with them.
I will wrap up this week by saying that our Green Ticket idea is brewing. We just have to meet with a few more attorneys to square away the details. I did include a picture teaser in the meantime. That was created by our C360 partners, who can also be seen wearing GHF t-shirts!
This life truly is about working together. And we are embracing that at Grasshopper Farms.
Be sure to pay close attention to Facebook and Instagram for the live sessions that Adam, Kayla, and Victor are doing!
Have a phenomenal weekend!
