What Is Little Beach Harvest? Inside New York's Leading Tribally-Owned Cannabis Business

As one of the first tribally owned and regulated businesses in the region, LBH is a trailblazer in the cannabis industry, fostering economic growth, tribal sovereignty, and opportunities for Shinnecock entrepreneurs. In addition to creating its own branded products, Little Beach Harvest partners with Native brands from the Shinnecock Nation and other inter-tribal trade partners, including Peshaun, Spark'd, Canndigenous, Big Boy Budz, Raindrops, and Stoney Shore. A member of the Long Island Cannabis Coalition (LICC), LBH is actively shaping the future of the market while staying true to its origins.

Little Beach Harvest: A Beacon Of Hope For The Shinnecock Nation

The Shinnecock Nation, the original inhabitants of Southampton, Long Island, continues to live on portions of its ancestral lands. For generations, the Shinnecock people have contributed to the Hamptons community, from their historic roles as fishermen and whalers to their ongoing efforts to preserve land and restore waterways. Without the Shinnecock Nation, there is no Little Beach Harvest—a business built on a legacy of resilience, stewardship, and innovation.

LBH is deeply committed to supporting the Shinnecock Nation, contributing 4 percent of its revenue to tribal initiatives that promote the success and well-being of its people. The store also hosts events to provide tribal members with opportunities to gain recognition and income, further strengthening the community.

Jay Wright's "Moving And Shaking" Weedsday Playlist

For his Weedsday Playlist, Jay Wright chose tracks that put the “motion” in “emotion.” He shares, "My playlist is all about movement, dancing, and feel-good vibes, with meaningful moments woven in from time to time. Music has always been a huge part of my life—it’s incredible how it can instantly shift your mood or bring a sense of connection. As my dad used to say, 'There’s beauty in the breakdown,' and that’s something I carry with me when curating songs that inspire joy, reflection, and energy."
