Our HAPPY Gummies Win First Place in Best in Grass 2025
We’re thrilled to share some exciting news: First Crop New Mexico’s THC + Wellness HAPPY Gummies have taken First Place 🏆 in the Best in Grass 2025 – Gummies Category!
This honor is especially meaningful to us, as our HAPPY gummy is the lowest-dosed gummy ever to win in the competition’s history. In a field of strong contenders, this recognition is a powerful validation of our commitment to quality, innovation, and—most importantly—wellness.
“This award celebrates our mission and the growing acceptance of wellness-based products within the New Mexico cannabis industry. At First Crop, we’re committed to creating plant-based remedies that allow people to feel better and stay well,” said Jane Pinto, Founder and Visionary of First Crop New Mexico. “We’re humbled by this win and grateful for the opportunity to represent New Mexico’s dedication to mindful cannabis and wellness practices.”
Meet the Winner: HAPPY
HAPPY is a plant-based, heart-forward experience formulated to inspire confidence, spark connection, and promote positive vibes.
Crafted as a plant-based alcohol alternative, HAPPY provides feel-good energy without overstimulation—and none of the downsides of a hangover. Whether you’re easing into a social setting or laughing with close friends, HAPPY helps you feel present, joyful, and at ease.
Each gummy contains 5mg THC from a hand-selected, single strain, live rosin and 5mg CBD from organic, full-spectrum extract. But what truly sets HAPPY apart is its expertly crafted botanical formula—the uplifting botanicals include mimosa tree bark, hawthorn, rhodiola and dammiana. Learn more here.
HAPPY was created to be shared—to uplift the spirit, spark laughter, and bring people together. It’s wellness-forward, joy-centered, and award-winning for a reason.
What Makes This Win Meaningful
The Best in Grass (BiG) Awards are among the most respected cannabis competitions in the nation. Unlike traditional judging panels, real consumers from across the state anonymously evaluated each product over several weeks, rating entries based on visual appeal, aroma, taste, and effects. The competition’s transparent and accessible format ensures that the winners reflect the genuine preferences and experiences of everyday users.
This milestone is not just a win for First Crop, but a win for our community and for the plant-based wellness movement.
