Pioneering Canna Mom and Entrepreneur Dani McQueen

Dani McQueen built her business, Old Man Farms, with her daughter on her back. Literally! Her CBD Subscription Boxes were nominated as one of the best new CBD products in 2019, however her story is really about advocacy and healing.

Born with an autoimmune disorder that required narcotics to control the pain, Dani did not consider medicinal cannabis until her daughter was born with the same condition.

Although Dani never had any intention of starting a cannabis company, she did enjoy being a lady who made sweets to help and heal. During the podcast interview Dani learned she had won two awards at NECANN right here in Boston, and we are so happy to be celebrating her success.

Although Dani encountered many obstacles on the road to healing herself and her daughter, she is here today to share her strong and proud mama story of giving and being given many gifts along the way of finding a way to heal with cannabis.

Now she is on a mission to help. Dani McQueen is the force behind Old Man Farms and Old Man Goodies in Maine, and on today’s show she shares a story of grit, persistence and purpose, and if you listen to the end you can find out who the old man is.
