SpeakEasy Initiates the Seasons Harvest and Extends Warrant Expiry Date

The team has worked diligently and around the clock to achieve this significant milestone. On Monday, September 21st, we began the harvest of our outdoor campus. The conditions this summer have been favorable and as expected, in conjunction with our incredible genetics, we are now harvesting a bumper crop that we couldn’t be happier about. Founder Marc Geen, states, “I am absolutely thrilled to have started the harvest of our outdoor grow, its been a long road and I’m happy to report the quality of the bud has exceeded all my expectations. It’s all hands on deck as we tackle this next challenge here at SpeakEasy and as anticipated, everyone has pulled together making an extremely difficult process seem easy. As always I am so proud of our dedicated group of talented hard working employees, without them we would have nothing but a bunch of good ideas.“ The harvest is expected to continue for the next 3-4 weeks and will yield flower and extract material suitable to make any concentrate the market demands.
