Heavenly isn’t just a Cannabis garden; it’s an experience — from its in-house designed and engineered state-of-the-art water-chilling system to the years of experience utilized to develop one of the most efficient gardens we’ve seen. It is no surprise that Heavenly is regarded as one of the most premium brands in Washington. 

Things started out great on this tour. We were greeted with terrific vibes by general manager Clarissa Curtis and an adorable Boston terrier, Stella, who is obviously the one really in charge of everything. Fresh-frozen flower is a priority here. It is the base ingredient in the amazing rosin and concentrate products that are processed on-site. 

The team is next-level; they all truly enjoy and execute their positions to a point of excellence that is seldom achieved. We saw some really healthy plants in vegetative states; the homeostasis of those and the flower rooms were on par with the best gardens we’ve seen in years. 

Though there is modern technology applied here, the flowers are still hand-trimmed and cured in glass jars, which takes focused effort. A lot of the processes that are usually automated these days aren’t automated here. These products still retain the quality that goes into handcrafted Cannabis. 

Heavenly’s owner, Chad Ferrel, has a background in mechanical engineering, and it shows everywhere in the facility. Utilizing his skill set, he developed a water-chilling system for hash processing that works without ice. It is composed of reverse-osmosis water that maintains 32 degrees Fahrenheit using glycol suspended in cooling tubes.

It helps the hydroponic setup maintain the optimal temperature for plant-feeding nutrients while deterring mold and mildew growth.

Some of the amazing strains on hand during our visit were Permanent Marker, Gushers, Strawberry Banana Zkittles and Apple Fritter. The garden also propagates legacy phenos like Super Lemon Haze and Yoda that they’ve stabilized for over 15 years. Another consumer favorite is their Cake Bomb; don’t miss this creamy-tasting masterpiece at your favorite local retailer.

If you are a medical patient, you’ll be happy to hear that all products made by Heavenly are Department of Health-approved, which helps to save you on taxes and increases your daily purchase limit. So, if you see Heavenly on the shelf, give the products a try. We highly recommend anything the team here puts out!
