Some exciting news from Milk Barn Farm! Today we are releasing our first tincture specifically for daytime use: Sunny Day with CBG.

Limited Edition Tincture: Sunny Day CBG
CBG is a minor cannabinoid. Like CBD, it's nonintoxicating and helps with pain and anxiety. Unlike CBD, it won't make you drowsy, so it's good for daytime!

the way we're doing age verification in this country is bad. it's bad to require people to upload sensitive information to sites, it's bad to send people (incl minors) to even darker, sketchier parts of the internet. most of all none of this feels motivated by a genuine desire to protect kids.
