Show-Me Organics

What Show-Me Organics does

Show-Me Organics is a vertically integrated cannabis operator headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri, founded in 2018 by the Dickerson family, whose background includes three decades of operating local pharmacies. The company operates across the full cannabis value chain in Missouri, with a cultivation and manufacturing facility at 14600 U.S. Hwy 71 in Kansas City, a headquarters office at 11040 Holmes Road, and five Blue Sage deli-style retail dispensaries in Belton, Carthage, Farmington, Lebanon, and Valley Park. Its commercial activity is organized around four consumer brands: Vivid Cannabis (premium flower and concentrates, described as Missouri's most distributed flower brand and top-selling concentrates brand), Blue Sage (retail dispensary), Missouri's Own (gourmet gummies and THC-infused food products, including a 2025 THC-infused BBQ seasoning co-developed with Kansas City's Rufus Teague), and Buoyant Bob (value-tier products).

The company generates revenue through one-time unit sales of cannabis products across its brands, distributed via company-owned dispensaries, wholesale to third-party Missouri dispensaries, and an e-commerce merchandise storefront. Pricing varies by brand and product type, with the THC-infused BBQ seasoning launched at $19.99 per 110mg jar. Marketing is multi-channel, spanning YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, email, content/blog, and earned PR, and was recognized by Adweek's first Top 10 Cannabis Marketing Campaigns list in 2023.

Operationally, Show-Me Organics has positioned itself as Missouri's leading vertically integrated independent operator, bolstered by the November 2022 acquisition of a grow and manufacturing facility from Holistic Industries, multiple industry awards in 2024, and ecosystem programs such as a 2023 Microbusiness Incubator and brand-licensing partnerships. The company has no disclosed funding rounds, no public revenue figures, and no disclosed AI or technology platform beyond conventional cannabis cultivation and retail operations. Geographic reach is currently limited to Missouri, with a single exploratory partnership (Prolific Growhouse / Buoyant Bob) extending into New Jersey.
