Silly Nice in Upstate New York: Craft Cannabis Built for Real Life

Upstate New York is not one thing.

It’s lake towns and mill cities.
It’s snowplows at 5am.
It’s hospital shifts that run long.
It’s union halls and college campuses.
It’s farmland, riverfronts, and small main streets.

From the Adirondacks to the Southern Tier, from Buffalo to Albany, Upstate runs on grit and independence.

Upstate doesn’t chase trends.

It values reliability.

Silly Nice belongs here because we were built on discipline, not hype.

We’re proud to be available at licensed dispensaries throughout Upstate New York. Not as a mass-produced cannabis brand chasing volume — but as a small-batch, Black-owned, Veteran-owned company grounded in lived experience and consistency.

Upstate Is About Recovery and Balance

People up here:

  • Work physical jobs

  • Commute in snow

  • Run small businesses

  • Teach at universities

  • Put in healthcare shifts

  • Raise families in tight communities

Cannabis in Upstate isn’t about flash.

It’s about:

  • Easing back pain

  • Supporting deep sleep

  • Managing stress

  • Recovering after long days

  • Creating steady downtime

That’s exactly how Silly Nice was built.

Built From Necessity, Not Marketing

Silly Nice began in 2001 when cannabis became a practical solution for chronic neck and back pain following U.S. Army service.

There was no legal market.
No retail pipeline.
No shelf strategy.

Just relief.

In 2002, a trip to Amsterdam introduced us to traditional hash-making techniques and terpene preservation. That education permanently elevated our expectations for quality.

We return annually to stay grounded in craftsmanship.

Upstate respects people who stand behind their product.

Black-Owned. Veteran-Owned. Family-Operated.

Ownership carries weight across Upstate communities.

Silly Nice is Black-owned and Veteran-owned. We remain family-run and hands-on in production oversight.

We don’t outsource standards.
We don’t overproduce.
We don’t warehouse stale inventory.

In smaller cities and towns, reputation spreads fast.

Sustainability Matters Upstate

Upstate New York runs on land and water.

That’s why:

  • Ocean-bound plastic lids

  • Hemp-based packaging

Sustainability increases cost. We accept that responsibility.

Craft cannabis should align with environmental care.
