Silly Nice Is in Poughkeepsie — Here's What That Means for Dutchess County
If you're in Poughkeepsie or anywhere in Dutchess County and looking for premium, independently lab-tested cannabis from a Black-owned, Veteran-owned New York brand — Silly Nice is here. We're now carried in licensed adult-use dispensaries across New York State, including locations serving the Hudson Valley. Our full product line, including concentrates, vapes, and infused flower, is available to adults 21 and older who are done settling for less.
We are Shane Breen, a U.S. Army Veteran, and LeVar Thomas — partners for over 25 years, co-founders of Silly Nice, and two people who have poured everything we have into building something that actually reflects the communities we serve. Since launching in March 2024, we've grown to 150+ licensed New York adult-use dispensaries statewide. That growth isn't an accident. It's the result of an uncompromising commitment to quality, transparency, and the kind of trust that takes decades to build.
Why Poughkeepsie? Because the Hudson Valley Deserves the Real Thing
Poughkeepsie has always been a city with its own heartbeat — a community that's working, growing, and building something real. The same is true of Dutchess County as a whole. When we think about where Silly Nice belongs, we think about places where people have discernment, where they know the difference between a product that's been crafted with intention and one that's been mass-produced for a shelf. That's Poughkeepsie. That's why we're proud to be here.

Our Concentrates: Small-Batch, Solventless, and Built for Connoisseurs
If you're a concentrate person — and a lot of Dutchess County cannabis consumers are — our concentrate lineup was made for you. We produce three distinct concentrate products, each small-batch, each independently lab-tested, and each with a Certificate of Analysis you can verify yourself at sillynice.com/menu. We don't ask you to trust us blindly. We show you exactly what's in what you're consuming.
Diamond Powder
Our Diamond Powder is ultra-refined THCa crystalline — 1 gram, 86.24% THC, 98.54% total cannabinoids, priced at $50. This is as close to pure cannabis chemistry as you're going to find on the legal New York market. Adults who want to elevate their sessions — adding Diamond Powder to flower, incorporating it into a bowl, or using it on its own — will find this product unmatched in potency and purity. It's not for every session. But when you want the best, there's nothing else like it.

Bubble Hash
Our Frosted Hash Ball is 1 gram of handmade artisanal concentrate — 67.34% THC, 78.34% total cannabinoids, 5.7% terpene content, $50. It's the kind of product that takes skill to produce and patience to appreciate. The terpene profile alone sets it apart from what you'll find in most dispensaries. Then there's our Bubble Hash: 1 gram, 53.32% THC, 62.86% total cannabinoids, 6.2% terpenes, $44. Made using an ice-water solventless process, our Bubble Hash preserves the full spectrum of the plant's natural character. That 6.2% terpene content isn't a marketing number — it's the reason the experience hits differently. Full-spectrum, full-flavor, full integrity.

Vapes That Actually Respect What You're Putting in Your Body
We know the vape market in New York has been flooded with products that cut corners — synthetic terpenes, mystery additives, carts that taste nothing like actual cannabis. That's not what we do. Both of our vape products are made with 100% cannabis-derived terpenes, and both are independently lab-tested so you know exactly what you're getting before you take a single draw.
510 Thread Vape — Pink Stardust
Our Pink Stardust 510 Vape is 1 gram, 81.96% THC, 88.36% total cannabinoids, $40. It's compatible with any standard 510-thread battery and priced accessibly for the adults who use vapes as their everyday format. The 100% cannabis-derived terpene profile gives Pink Stardust a taste and experience that synthetic alternatives simply cannot replicate. If you've been burned by vapes that taste chemical or burn out in days — Pink Stardust is a different conversation entirely.

2G All-In-One Vape — Alaskan Thunder Fuck
For adults who want a premium all-in-one format with no accessories required, our Alaskan Thunder Fuck 2G AIO is the move. Two grams, 82.46% THC, 84.06% total cannabinoids, $80. Rechargeable via USB-C, so you're not throwing it away halfway through — this is a device built to last the full product life. The Alaskan Thunder Fuck cultivar is legendary for a reason, and our execution of it as an all-in-one vape keeps every bit of that character intact. It's the premium road companion for adults who take their cannabis seriously.

Papaya Wine Infused Flower: The Most Decadent Smoke in Our Lineup
There is nothing quite like what we've done with our Papaya Wine Infused Flower. This is 3.5 grams of flower that has been coated with live resin and THCa diamonds — not a gimmick, not a novelty, but a genuinely elevated smoking experience. At 51.22% THC and 58.63% total cannabinoids, the numbers speak for themselves. And at $60 for 3.5 grams, it's one of the most compelling value propositions in the entire New York premium cannabis market.
Papaya Wine is the kind of flower that makes people stop mid-session and pay attention. The live resin and diamond infusion doesn't just add potency — it transforms the burn, the aroma, and the entire character of the smoking experience. Adults who appreciate craft cannabis the same way a sommelier appreciates a great bottle of wine will understand immediately what we've created here. This is the product we're most proud to bring to Poughkeepsie.
Sustainably Packaged and Third-Party Lab Tested — Always
Every single Silly Nice product is sustainably packaged and comes with a Certificate of Analysis from an independent third-party lab. We publish all COAs on sillynice.com/menu because transparency is non-negotiable for us. As a Black-owned, Veteran-owned brand, we've had to earn trust the hard way — by doing the work, being honest about what's in our products, and never cutting corners to chase margins. That's the Silly Nice standard, and we hold to it on every batch, every time.
What It Means to Be Black-Owned and Veteran-Owned in New York Cannabis
Shane and LeVar didn't build Silly Nice to be a statistic or a diversity checkbox. We built it because we believe the legal cannabis industry in New York should reflect the communities that kept this plant alive through decades of prohibition — communities that paid the highest price for policies that criminalized what is now a multi-billion dollar industry. Being Black-owned, Veteran-owned, LGBTQ+-owned, and family-run isn't our marketing angle. It's our identity. It shapes every decision we make.
Shane's service in the U.S. Army instilled a discipline and a standard for quality that runs through every product we release. LeVar brings a business acumen and a creative vision that has helped Silly Nice grow from launch in March 2024 to 150+ licensed New York dispensaries in under two years. Together, as partners for more than 25 years, we bring something to this industry that no corporate cannabis conglomerate can replicate: a genuine relationship with the people we serve and a shared investment in getting it right.

We take that mission personally. And we take every purchase personally. Thank you for showing up for brands like ours.
