The company grows artisan craft cannabis with a deep love and respect for the plant, and prides itself on using sustainable materials—from seed to sale—to produce an extensive portfolio of award-winning original and licensed brands, including Lowell Herb Co, Cypress Cannabis, Moon, and Kaizen Extracts, for licensed retailers statewide. The company provides manufacturing, extraction processing, and distribution services to third-party cannabis and cannabis branding companies; and bulk extraction concentrates and flowers to licensed manufacturers and distributors.
