Proof that Equity Is Real— and It’ s Working!

greenhouse, we steward every plant in 100 % pure coco, nourished by all-natural nutrients so that each flower may be worthy of the crown. First from our alchemist’ s bench: vape cartridges, potent concentrates, and prerolls— including infused rolls for quests demanding more magic. Join our merry order; the harvest approaches, and the realm shall be well pleased.”
Strainworx—“ We at Strainworx focus on the true meaning of craft, a slow, focused, and intentioned micro-cultivation facility with new strains unknown to the Missouri market. Landrace strains and unique flavors are slowly cured and hand-trimmed to an optimal moisture level. We refuse anything but the best quality and are addicted to the challenge. Combining a love of medicinal benefits, listening to customers’ needs, and utilizing automation applications to create a seamless infrastructure fuels us. Cococoir provides the roots of our dreams with room to grow, feeding precisely to optimize nutrient absorption. We will carry premium eighths, half ounces, and prerolls, and we will eventually offer deeper impacting full-spectrum healing medicine such as RSO / FECO, tinctures, and topicals. With meshing technology, experience, and a limitless drive, the ceiling is the limit— a technological innovation in the making.”

Each new ATO( approval to operate) expands shelf choice at micro dispensaries and strengthens the flywheel: more micro-grown SKUs → happier customers → healthier neighborhood retailers → reinvestment back into the communities this program was designed to serve.
The Heart of It
When you walk into a micro dispensary and pick up a micromade product, you’ re not just buying cannabis— you’ re voting for a more inclusive industry with safe, regulated, and tested cannabis. You’ re backing family-owned operations that entered by lottery, not by buy-in; you’ re keeping dollars and dignity in Missouri; and fueling a network where peers share knowledge, not secrets.
The micro industry is real, alive, and functioning because Missourians made it so. Come see what the microbusinesses are building.
Stay tuned for next month’ s issue with more exciting microbusiness updates.
Samantha Blum is the Chairwoman of the Missouri Microbusiness Association( MMBA) and the Founder of Bud Wizard, a round one microbusiness winner, a women-owned cannabis cultivation facility specializing in indoor aeroponic cultivation. Her dedication to craft cannabis, sustainability, and entrepreneurial-driven growth continues to shape the evolving landscape of the state’ s cannabis industry.
