Grasshopper Farms

What Grasshopper Farms does

Grasshopper Farms, LLC is a privately-held, multi-state cannabis cultivator specializing in premium sun-grown (outdoor) flower, headquartered at 29003 CR 665 in Paw Paw, Michigan. The company operates outdoor farms across three states: a roughly 160-acre Michigan site cultivating more than 4,500 plants from 30-plus strains, a 48-acre Colorado farm in Pueblo with capacity for up to 6,000 plants, and a phase-one cultivation and processing facility in Galloway Township, New Jersey. Its product portfolio centers on a Harvest Menu of sun-grown flower with varying cannabinoid and terpene profiles, supplemented by two pre-roll lines — Flavor-Infused and Resin-Infused Pre-Rolls — produced with RollPros automated machinery that achieved the highest U.S. output for the Michigan operation in February 2025, crossing 2 million units.

The company generates revenue exclusively through a B2B wholesale model, selling flower and pre-rolls to licensed dispensaries and cannabis retailers across its three operating states. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated through retail partnerships; the company claims a 30-40% wholesale premium over peer outdoor farms in Colorado, attributed to cultivation quality and brand positioning. Distribution is supported by a StoreRocket store locator, vendor day activations at dispensaries, VIP farm tours for retailers and budtenders, and recurring event presence (e.g., MJ Unpacked). Marketing is handled in partnership with C-360 across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Threads, email, press, and podcast appearances by founder and CEO Will Bowden.

Grasshopper Farms is founder-led, bootstrapped, and privately held, with Will Bowden (a retired U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Commander) serving as Founder & CEO. The company has been recognized by Cannabis Business Times as one of the Best Cannabis Companies to Work For for seven consecutive years, including 2026. Strategic intent, per company history, points toward further geographic expansion to as many as 10 states. No external funding rounds, M&A activity, or revenue figures are disclosed in the available data.
