Issue 27 — High in Orbit — brings Honeysuckle home to New York.
After more than a decade covering the city’s culture and communities, we’re beginning a new chapter as Honeysuckle Magazine NY. This issue turns its attention to the independent people building New York’s evolving cannabis industry: the growers finding their footing, the retailers reimagining their spaces, the makers bringing experience from elsewhere back home, and the artists who make this city feel like itself.
Our cover story follows Planet Nugg as it expands its vision beyond the traditional dispensary. Through media, events, technology and a new North Fork location designed for its surroundings, Planet Nugg is building a world of its own.
Inside, that spirit takes many forms. Hall of Flowers brings brands and buyers together at Pier 36. We Grow NYC helps cultivate the next generation of growers. The Kaleidoscope Collective showcases the excellence emerging from New York soil. Highest Standards brings art, design and culture into the retail experience, while Jetty Extracts takes what it learned in California to a new facility in Albany.
Together, these stories offer a look at an industry still defining itself and a city full of people determined to shape it on their own terms. New York has never been especially interested in following someone else’s blueprint. It creates its own world.
Welcome to High in Orbit. Nothing but LUV & HONEY.
