Often, supporting Black-owned cannabis brands means directly supporting people negatively impacted by the War on Drugs, a mission that guides our every move at The Travel Agency. Explore these Black-owned brands leading New York’s cannabis market with intention.

B NOBLE

Founded by renowned street artist and hip-hop figurehead Fab 5 Freddy, B NOBLE launched in July 2021 as a way to spread awareness about people prosecuted and criminalized for cannabis-related charges. The company is named after Bernard Noble, who spent 13 years incarcerated for two joints’ worth of cannabis. The company puts its money where its mouth is, donating a portion of all its proceeds to numerous nonprofits that support people impacted by harsh sentences for cannabis-related charges.

Through the B NOBLE brand, Fab 5 Freddy has also directed attention to his documentary Grass Is Greener, which we’ve helped bring to New York theaters. The film covers roughly 100 years of anti-Black and anti-Latino policing, especially as it relates to the War on Drugs.

As for cannabis itself, B NOBLE sells pre-rolls, vapes, and whole flower. Explore B NOBLE on The Travel Agency’s menu to see the brand’s high-quality, social justice-supporting products.

Foy

As with B NOBLE, the Black-owned cannabis brand Foy has given communities liftoff in hopes of establishing equity. A percentage of Foy’s sales goes to The Bail Project, a nonprofit that reunites people from disproportionately targeted groups with their families and re-centers the belief that one is innocent until proven guilty. The company has also been involved in COVID-19, social justice, DEI, and right-to-vote programs.

As for its cannabis products, Foy is wholly committed to manufacturing top-quality items. It uses no pesticides, chemicals, or heavy metals in its organic plant growing practices, and it conducts extraction processes at its own kosher-certified facility. Foy products available at The Travel Agency include gummies with tetrahydrocannabidiol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), and minor cannabinoids such as cannabinol (CBN) and cannabigerol (CBG)

MyHi

The Black-owned cannabis brand MyHi makes cannabis consumption exceptionally discreet and convenient. Its goal is to provide hangover-free, sugar-free social times through highly customizable cannabis experiences. Its slim, compact, portable Stir STIKs are calorie-free, with several party-friendly flavor options that dovetail beautifully with your favorite mocktail. Each Stir STIK contains infused powder with 10mg total THC — just add it to your favorite beverage, stir, enjoy, and ascend.

MyHi Stir STIKs at The Travel Agency are available in 10-packs or three-packs. Bring a splash of warmth to your drink with the Gingerbread STIK, or opt for a tart, fruity flavor with Boisterous Berry. If you’re infusing a drink that’s already packed with flavors, MyHi’s Flavorless Stir STIKs preserve that beautiful taste while elevating everything else.

Weekenders

Both Black-owned and woman-owned, Weekenders packs outdoor-grown cannabis into convenient, gorgeously packaged pre-rolls. All the flower in these pre-rolls comes from small, sustainable farms that use rainwater, composting, and cover cropping to grow top-quality cannabis under the sun.

Some Weekenders pre-rolls on The Travel Agency menu are associated with euphoric effects and fruity, sweet flavors. You’ll also find nighttime-friendly pre-rolls that may deliver relaxing, soothing effects that start in your mind and extend to your full body. Choose a single pre-roll for an easy introduction to Weekenders, or purchase a seven-pack to dive right into this high-end brand’s immersive experiences.

Papa & Barkley

Papa & Barkley is a cannabis wellness brand known for prioritizing care and craftsmanship. Based in California and led by Guy Rocourt, the company takes a slow, thoughtful approach to cannabis, focusing on clean, solventless, whole-plant products designed to support everyday well-being rather than chase trends.

At The Travel Agency, Papa & Barkley’s gummies offer an approachable way to experience the brand’s wellness-forward philosophy. Made with quality ingredients and intention, they’re ideal for anyone looking for a more mindful, body-centered cannabis experience that fits seamlessly into daily life.

Reisfields NYC

With Reisfelds NYC, a different kind of smoke is on the table. Lighting up with this Black-owned, queer-owned brand means taking a lighter to a wick. Handcrafted candles to help mask cannabis aromas are a highlight of Reisfields NYC’s catalog. Founder and CEO Reis Chester merges his background in fashion styling, architectural development, and interior design with his passions for self-care, nature, luxury, and travel throughout the brand’s offerings.

This vision is evident in Reisfield’s NYC’s candles, which are all hand-poured in the brand’s New Jersey laboratory. These sustainable candles are made from pure soy wax — no phthalates — blended with essential oils and fragrances in small batches. You might feel a bit revitalized and radiant shortly after lighting the Reisfields NYC candles on The Travel Agency’s menu. At the very least, you’ll add a gorgeous aroma to your surroundings.

Skyworld

Skyworld was founded by Alex Anderson, a member of the Tuscarora Nation, with a mission to honor his heritage while bringing quality cannabis to New Yorkers. The brand’s name reflects a celestial place of origin from Tuscarora creation stories, symbolizing connection, tradition, and the journey back to one’s roots.

Skyworld’s flower and pre-rolls are carefully cultivated for consistent, elevated experiences. The brand prioritizes purity — growing without plant growth regulators or synthetic enhancers — so each cultivar can express its true genetic potential. Sustainability is central to their approach: reusable glass packaging, energy-efficient LED lighting, hydroelectric-powered facilities, Indigenous-owned composting for green waste, and a revitalized community building all contribute to a cleaner, more thoughtful operation.

Explore Skyworld at The Travel Agency to experience products rooted in tradition and crafted with intention.

STAY ME7O

STAYME7O is a premium, Black-led cannabis brand launched by NBA legend Carmelo Anthony, blending luxury, intention, and everyday balance. Positioned as “couture cannabis,” the brand focuses on effect-driven flower curated to support an active, grounded lifestyle on and off the court.

Available at The Travel Agency, STAYME7O’s flower lineup offers thoughtfully selected experiences that prioritize clarity, calm, and consistency. Beyond its product excellence, STAYME7O is committed to social equity and justice: a portion of proceeds supports NuProject, which empowers entrepreneurs from communities disproportionately impacted by the War on Drugs, and the Last Prisoner Project, advancing cannabis criminal justice reform.
