87 Months

87 was established to provide quality consumption essentials to our patrons while amplifying the voice of the women who served time in prison for cannabis. 87 represent the number of months our founder Evelyn LaChapelle was sentenced to Federal Prison.

87 is a story of defeat and victory.

Prison didn’t break us, it built us.
