Straight from the Source
by Higher OriginsStraight from the Source is a Higher Origins podcast about small farm cannabis, California’s cannabis supply chain, and the people moving products from the farm to the shelf. We talk with farmers, brands, retailers, distributors, advocates, and operators about cultivation, branding, market access, retail velocity, policy, and what it takes to keep craft cannabis alive.
Episodes
In the first episode of Straight from the Source, Higher Origins sits down to talk through the state of California cannabis, the pressure on small farms, and why the industry needs a better path forward. We cover the problems created by cannabis tax policy, the disconnect between legalization and real support for operators, and why small farms, local brands, and independent retailers still matter. This pilot episode is the starting point for a broader conversation about cannabis culture, market access, regional identity, and how consumers can better understand where their products come from.
