My two sons and I attended a VIP Iration and Autumn Brand’s official launch party, celebrating their new three hand-chosen strains from Autumn Brands‘ clean, spray-free family farm.
We had the opportunity to tour the Autumn Brands Nursery and Greenhouse:
What a beautiful place it was at this farm and I learned so much about the health benefits from many of these products. I brought my sons along, as my younger son Jesse (32), who knows all about growing products for health use and my eldest son Billy (39) who is a big fan of Iration, so they were both so excited to have been invited by their mom.
This is what what the younger son had to say: “The Iration sativa “Day Trippin” is a great strain and flavor to start your day or first smoke of the day. It has a great aroma with a hint of citrus to it and it smokes well, not harsh at all. Smooth with great flavor. The Iration hybrid lemon “Time Bomb” is a great stain. It has a strong pungent smell with fruity hints to it reminds me of a nice OG. The flavor is smooth. The Iration “Summer Night” indica strain is a smooth burning strong couch lock high. It has a fresh earthy sent with a smooth burn you can really tell Autumn Brands grows quality, clean flowers when you smoke their products. Each jar they gave to me had a barcode on it that gives you points and I scanned a couple and earned a free hat and that was way cool. I really appreciate the staff on hand at the event, who really took care of my brother and me and even gave some samples of gummies for my mom for her anxiety.” Jesse Shields
I wasn’t sure about the gummies, but they have really helped me to sleep and my anxiety is in check. The product I was given was called Now Melt – Pucker me Peach-Gummies. Highly recommend these. Judy Shields, The Hollywood Times
“Iration” so much to say about how much they truly bring reggae movement and good vibes. It’s so awesome to see how much they have grown in the culture and to bring what reggae stands for, One Love and blowing smoke. For Iration to have such a partnership like this opens a path for other bands and grow groups to really acknowledge that there are cleaner ways to grow the best tasting flower out there. I am personally super stoked to attend Iration tours to purchase and enjoy smoking the cleans FLOWER out here while Day Trippin. One Love to everyone…. Billy Shields

This special event celebrated Iration’s hand-chosen strains from Autumn Brands‘ clean, spray-free family farm. Iration hand-picked their favorite strains including “Lemon Time Bomb”—hybrid, “Summer Nights”—indica, and “Daytrippin”—sativa, named after some of their classic hits and new album Daytrippin. The Santa Barbara cannabis farm is known for its commitment to spray-free, clean cannabis and sustainability, with strong strains that keep customers coming back.
We got to indulge in a curated Happy Hour with the Iration Flower Bar an Autumn Brands PAD Table, savor delicious bites and drinks, and the best part was to hear Iration play several of their songs.
