Inside a 100-Year Old Farm That Turns Everything into Rosin

This isn’t just another grow tour.

We stepped onto a 100-year-old family farm in Michigan, built on an ancient glacial riverbed, where generations of soil, water, and intention have shaped one of the most unique cultivation sites we’ve ever visited.

Everything grown here is purpose-built for rosin. No shortcuts. No mass production. Just sungrown plants, living soil, and genetics that have been carefully collected, preserved, and refined over decades.

In this episode of First Smoke of the Day, we walk the fields just weeks before harvest, from massive papaya rows and legendary Z genetics to in-house pheno hunts and a sacred garden once used to feed a family generations ago. Today, that same ground produces some of the most sought-after strains in the world.

You’ll hear the full story behind the land, why this specific terroir matters, how water, soil, and placement affect flavor expression, and why this farm has committed 100% to a fresh-frozen rosin process from day one.

This is about legacy, cultivation, flavor, and respect for the plant and what’s possible when tradition and modern genetics work together.
