There’s a personal touch built right into the name at Ann’s Cannabis Cottage, a licensed microbusiness cultivator in the Bemidji area of northern Minnesota. Operating in Hubbard County, the grow works at the craft scale that defines the state’s microbusiness tier — small batches and local ownership under full Office of Cannabis Management licensure. It brings Minnesota’s legal cultivation footprint deep into the north woods.

Lindstrom, in the lake country of Chisago County northeast of the Twin Cities, is where House of Selection LLC grows cannabis under a Minnesota microbusiness license. The license class is the state’s dedicated tier for small, independent operators, and House of Selection applies it to cultivation — craft-scale growing with full state oversight. It’s another sign of the legal industry taking root in greater Minnesota.

McLeod County’s Brownton is the home base of Suprize Valley Cannabis LLC, a licensed microbusiness cultivator and verified social equity business. Minnesota’s social equity designation recognizes owners from communities disproportionately affected by cannabis prohibition, and pairing it with a craft-scale cultivation license makes Suprize Valley a strong example of the market the state set out to build: small, rural, locally owned, and fully regulated.

A Minnesota microbusiness cultivation license puts GrowingGreen LLC among the small, independent growers powering the state’s legal supply. Based in Moorhead in Clay County, the operation raises cannabis in the Red River Valley, a region better known for sugar beets and wheat than for its newest licensed crop. GrowingGreen’s craft-scale approach reflects exactly what the microbusiness class was created for: local growers, state oversight, Minnesota product.

Southern Minnesota farm country produces more than corn and soybeans these days. In Winnebago, Faribault County, Emerald Fire Farms — licensed as EmeraldFireMicro LLC — cultivates cannabis under a state microbusiness license. The microbusiness tier keeps operations at a craft scale, so cultivation like this stays small, hands-on, and locally owned. Emerald Fire Farms brings that model to the state’s southern tier, near the Iowa border.

Caledonia, the seat of Houston County in Minnesota’s far southeastern corner, is home to Wild Hog Co. LLC, a licensed microbusiness cultivator. The bluff-country region has a long agricultural tradition, and Wild Hog extends it to a new state-regulated crop. Under the microbusiness class — Minnesota’s small-scale license tier — the company grows cannabis for the legal market from one of the state’s most scenic corners.

Carver County’s farm country is home to Kind Bud Cannabis Company, a licensed microbusiness cultivator in Watertown. Operating legally as DARKSTAR, LLC, the company grows cannabis at the craft scale Minnesota’s microbusiness class was written for — small batches, close attention, local ownership. West of the Twin Cities, Kind Bud contributes homegrown supply to the state’s legal market from one of its most agricultural counties.

From Sebeka in Otter Tail County, H.O.B.O.T.E. LLC holds a Minnesota microbusiness license covering both cultivation and manufacturing. That combination lets this small west-central Minnesota operation grow cannabis and process it into finished products under one roof — the kind of vertical, craft-scale setup the microbusiness class was designed to enable. It’s greater-Minnesota entrepreneurship, licensed and regulated by the state from seed to finished product.

Up in the Red River Valley, Stony Creek LLC cultivates cannabis in Moorhead under a Minnesota microbusiness license. Clay County’s farming heritage runs deep, and this small-scale, state-licensed grow adds a new crop to the region’s agricultural story while supplying the northwestern corner of Minnesota’s legal market. As a microbusiness cultivator, Stony Creek represents the craft-scale tier of the state’s cannabis licensing system.

In St Bonifacius on the western edge of Hennepin County, The Vault operates under Minnesota’s microbusiness license — a small-business class that allows a single company to both cultivate and sell cannabis. Licensed by the state as The Carver Cannabis Company, this retail-and-cultivation operation gives the far west metro a vertically integrated, locally rooted source for cannabis, with growing and selling overseen under one Minnesota license.
