Mission Statement
Our MISSION is to foster a socially just, environmentally regenerative and economically inclusive cannabis community. Our VISION is a world where consciously-grown, community-based cannabis heals the earth, uplifts our communities and ushers in a new economic model of fairness and inclusivity for all in agriculture and our culture at large. We envision an economy built on caring and respect not extraction and exploitation, supporting micro, craft and artisanal production grounded in shared opportunity and success, especially for those who have been discriminated against in the name of cannabis or have been historically marginalized by the profit-driven paradigm.
Description
NY Small Farma promotes sungrown, regeneratively farmed small craft cannabis that restores the health of people, communities and the planet. 80% of all cannabis cultivation incurs indoor. Indoor cannabis cultivation is expensive to set up and costly for the ecosystem and planet as it is the most energy intensive crop and constitutes 1% of total U.S. energy use. Where outdoor planted cannabis can sequester carbon and literally help to make the planet more climate resilient, indoor cannabis contributes more carbon gasses to a planet already in peril. In addition, we promote small-scale regenerative agriculture that is good for the local ecosystem, the workers who grow it, and the community where the farm is located.
