Last week, Cowboy Kush founder Avery Leveston joined Jason Reposa — founder of Good Feels — on the High Functioning Podcast for a powerful conversation about what it really means to build a different kind of cannabis company in Massachusetts.

Here are some of the key takeaways from the episode:

‍

Built for Farmers — Not Corporations

Cowboy Kush isn’t just another distributor. We’re a cannabis cooperative-style business that works directly with every type of farm in Massachusetts — indoor, greenhouse, and outdoor — helping them grow by offering cross-promotion, marketing support, and consistent order terms. Whether it’s COD payments or flexible net terms, we show up for our partners — every time.

Driving Costs Down, Driving Value Up

During the episode, Avery explained how Cowboy Kush helps cultivators reduce cost of goods (COGs) by streamlining operations and eliminating unnecessary middlemen. Our support isn’t just logistical — it’s strategic and financial, helping our farms reinvest where it matters most.

Strategic Retail Partnerships

Cowboy Kush carefully selects dispensary partners based on key regional metrics like per capita income, population density, car traffic, and walkability. We don’t just sell — we set up our partners for long-term success by choosing markets with true growth potential.

Investing in the People Behind the Counter

We go beyond the business transaction. Cowboy Kush actively invests in budtenders, department leads, and store managers — the frontline voices that connect products to consumers. Whether it’s through education, brand drops, or direct support, we believe in building with the people who make this industry move.
