Why Supporting Black-Owned Cannabis Businesses Is Vital

Backing black-owned cannabis businesses is vital for building a more diverse and inclusive industry. When we support these businesses, we’re not just buying products; we’re standing up against historical injustices and empowering black entrepreneurs. It’s also a great way to spread the wealth and boost economic growth in marginalized communities.

Black Owned Cannabis Brands We Appreciate in Massachusetts

Massachusetts is home to numerous black-owned cannabis businesses, including cultivators, dispensaries, and processors. Many of the brands we proudly support by including on our Williamstown and Palmer menus, such as:

• ROVE: An organic cannabis brand with some of the best vape carts and disposables in MA
• Ahh Chocolates: One of the most recognized edibles names in the state with a collection of hand-crafted cannabis confections
• Papi Cannabis: A black-owned brand with a collection of highly sought-after pre-rolls in Massachusetts

Black Owned Weed Brands in Vermont

In Vermont, several companies top the list when it comes to fine cannabis and cannabis products, and many of those brands are black-owned. The state has taken good initiatives to set the foundation for showing support for communities that have suffered undue harm due to cannabis laws of the past. A few of our favorites in Bennington include:

• Boujee Bones: One of the few producers of boutique-level, top-shelf cannabis pre-rolls in the state
• Tao Labs: One of the finest producers of pre-rolls in the state with an exceptional lineup of strains to choose from

Black-Owned Cannabis Businesses in Maine

Maine is a bit newer to the New England lineup when it comes to legalized cannabis. Therefore, the state does not have as many black owned cannabis companies or brands. However, there are a few names in the collection that are leading the way, such as:

• Edens 207: A medical marijuana delivery service serving Portland and surrounding areas
• The Healing Co: A black-owned dispensary located in Norridgewock, ME
• Wisely Hash Factory: A well-respected cannabis cultivator and processor in Sanford, Maine

Our Partnership with City Farm – One of the Most Unique Black Owned Cannabis Companies in Massachusetts

In a groundbreaking partnership between Silver Therapeutics and City Farm, we proudly stand as pioneers in Boston’s cannabis industry. As the first group provisionally licensed by the CCC for cultivation, processing, and both medical and adult-use retail sales, our collaboration is rooted in a shared commitment to community empowerment.

With City Farm’s distinction as a black-owned cultivation and education center, we are honored to champion social equity, justice, and economic empowerment in our beloved Boston. Together, we’re not just a dispensary; we’re a beacon of progress, illuminating the path towards a brighter, more inclusive future for all.

City Farm is operated by Leah and Sieh Samura. Leah and Sieh, longtime Roslindale residents, are impacting the cannabis landscape in Boston and beyond as advocates, educators, and entrepreneurs. Through collaboration with Silver Therapeutics, they run the City Farm education program, and work hard to make the cannabis industry accessible to communities disproportionately affected by prohibition.
