LGBTQ+-owned Stone Road Farms has introduced the QUEER ALL YEAR collection as a celebration of diversity and inclusivity within the cannabis industry. Founded by Lex Corwin, a self-proclaimed "weed twink," Stone Road has become a prominent California-based cannabis brand known for its commitment to providing a safe space for queerness. The brand's avant-garde campaign imagery, for instance, is shot exclusively by queer artists.
The QUEER ALL YEAR collection includes limited edition pre-rolls, such as the five-pack Gold Star Gay and the single pre-roll Homo Haze. Both products are characterized by fruity and flavorful sensibilities.
Stone Road's support for the LGBTQ+ community extends beyond Pride Month, with a portion of proceeds from the collection benefiting The Center, a New York-based organization providing support for LGBTQ+ individuals.
