How Radiant Farms came to be.
How Radiant Farms came to be.
Backstory: When we asked Rosebud's women what got in the way of their intimate relations and sexual satisfaction, they said the number one reason was the inability to relax, to open their hearts. From 12 years working with plant medicines and herbals, I know there are gentle ways to work with that- kanna, kava... passionflower, valerian, rose. And so I invested a year of time to make a couple of gummies- in partnership with growers- for our Rosebud customer base. Those launched in late April, all good, all good.
And somewhere along the line, we gave them to men to try. And they loved them.
So, what to do? I was very occupied with Rosebud Woman and Sundari Gardens and school. Then over the winter, spirit presented in the form of the magical Billy Beyer, and we just flowed like two streams coming together.
Initially we were aiming to do a farm and retreat with an integrated product offering, but things went sideways with the property... it all worked out for a blessing.
Because it became Radiant Farms, which is committed to bringing the purest, stabilized botanical sacraments as gummies, chews and confections to people worldwide, as an alternative to alcohol or pharmaceuticals.
More than 1 in 3 Americans suffer from anxiety, 1 in 5 Americans have chronic pain, and between 17% and 40% of people have low-grade inflammation present. Extensive global research studies demonstrate that plants can provide gentle, effective solutions for all of these things and more, without the risk of addiction. Psychoactive botanicals can create a direct experience of relaxation, including a feeling of receptivity for increased connection in intimate relationships, and a calming effect in conflict resolution. They are an amazing alternative to alcohol for social lubrication, without the disorientation and impinged perception, or the addiction, that alcohol (now known to convert to an opiod in the brain stem) can cause. They are gentler than the cathartic mega flora we all know and love from journeyspaces.
So, as things have evolved, the dear Leif Hansen is managing growth and outreach. He, along with Tanin Matin, Billy, his partner and my sweet deep friend Viraja Prema will all be part of the Radiant Farms launch at Psychedelic Science in Denver next week. If you're there, look for the company in Booth 207, where Endorfin Foods will be providing morning cacao from 8-9, while we set our intentions for the day. Also an open mic on Thursday at 5:30, come and play.
And if you're not there, @weareradiantfarms is on Insta, and the company is officially open for business at www.radiantfarms.us
Plants and practices for wellbeing!!!
