02 · The Brief

What Nanticoke means at the Terp Bros counter.

Nanticoke is the NY-native anchor at Terp Bros — Endicott, NY craft cannabis from one of the most diverse legacy-to-legal portfolios in the state. The brand runs flower, pre-rolls, vapes and edibles, which is rare in NY's adult-use market where most brands stick to one or two categories. For Queens shoppers, Nanticoke is what gets reached for when the question is 'what's actually grown in New York?' — and the answer matters, because NY's craft cultivation regulations require in-state grow, in-state processing, and in-state-licensed lab testing. Both Astoria on Ditmars and Ozone Park on Cross Bay stock the line, and it's a consistent shelf presence rather than a tight-allocation specialty drop. The brand's origin story is the legacy-to-legal arc: brothers Chip and Pete Shafer started with an industrial hemp license in 2017 in partnership with Binghamton University, formalized Nanticoke Hemp Inc in 2019, and received the NY Adult Use Conditional Cultivation License in May 2022 followed by the Processing License in December 2022. That makes them one of the earliest legal NY operators. Format range, NY provenance, and OCM compliance — Nanticoke checks all three boxes at once.

Why it lives at Terp Bros

Nanticoke fills the NY-native craft slot at both Terp Bros stores — the answer when a Queens shopper asks for flower (or anything) actually grown in New York. Endicott NY cultivation, NY processing license, NY OCM testing all the way through. Format diversity is the other reason: flower jars, pre-rolls, vape carts and edibles all sit under one brand, so a customer who wants consistency across categories can stay inside the Nanticoke catalog. Early-licensed legitimacy matters in NY's still-young legal market — Nanticoke was cultivating under a Conditional Cultivation License from May 2022. Astoria (Ditmars) and Ozone Park (Cross Bay).

Nanticoke flower jars on the Terp Bros wall are the NY-grown statement piece — Endicott NY cultivation, indoor structure, the NY-tested compliance seal stamped right on the package. It's the cleanest answer to the 'what's the actually-local pick?' question and the jar a Queens shopper grabs when state-of-origin matters as much as cultivar identity does.

Out of New York, on the Queens shelf today.

Nanticoke originated in 2017 in New York. Like every brand on our wall, it earned its spot only after passing the New York OCM compliance lab and our buyer’s shelf review. What lands on Ditmars and Cross Bay is the same formulation the brand makes everywhere — held to the same independent test we hold our Hudson Valley growers to.
