Lil Bean Farmers Market

08/10/2026

We’ve been moving in the shadows long enough.
Building. Connecting. Creating something bigger than any one name on this page.

Different worlds. One table. One vision.

LAF × Lil’ Bean × Lyfted Labs × Flora × High Res

You’ve seen the names.
You’ve heard the whispers.

Now it’s time to see what happens when they all come together.

The invitation is coming.
The night is coming.
And when the doors finally open…

I hope you guessed my name. 😈

COMING SOON. 🔥

🌹 IL.CHC — Collection Starts October 26 🌹
The moment’s here. Every entry tells a story — grown with love, shared with pride, and rooted in our community.

📅 Collection opens October 26 and continues through November 16 at Sessions (any open day).
If you haven’t entered yet, there’s still time — registration is open until November 16.

https://ilchc.net/

We’re also partnering with Grow5! In Bradley IL. and looking for more grow stores in Rockford, Southern, and Central Illinois to serve as collection points.

This isn’t your average competition — it’s for the people, by the people.
A celebration of real culture and community, made for home growers who keep the roots alive. 🌱

Our award ceremony will likely take place in January — giving us time to make this year’s experience even better.

✨ Please share this post — our page has been heavily restricted, and we truly need everyone’s help to spread the word and keep this movement growing.

📢Calling All Grow Shops & Glass Shops!

🚨 Making It Easier for Growers to Enter ICHC 2025! 🚨

We’re setting up Official ICHC Drop-Off Locations at grow shops and glass shops across Illinois and bordering states so that growers can conveniently submit their flower, hash, and edible entries at a local participating store.

🔹 Drop-Off Deadline: October 31 (Halloween 🎃) – Growers have all the way up to this date to turn in their samples!
🔹 Regular Pickups: I’ll be personally visiting stores for routine pick-ups, about once a month, to collect entries and talk with the community about the competition. We’ll schedule dates so I can connect with you and answer questions in person!
🔹 Tag your favorite grow shop or glass shop and let them know they should become an Official ICHC Drop-Off Location!
🔹 Shops: Want to help your local growers? DM me your email, and I’ll send over all the details on how you can participate.
🔹 Growers: Stay tuned for a list of drop-off locations near you!

💡 Bonus for Participating Stores!
As an Official Drop-Off Location, your shop will:
✔️ Be featured on our website as an official partner.
✔️ Get a direct link to your Instagram & website on our site to drive traffic to your business.
✔️ Be promoted across ICHC social media & marketing materials.

Let’s make this year’s Illinois Cannabis & Hash Competition the biggest one yet! 💥🔥

📩 DM to sign up or for more details!

✅ Why This Makes Sense:
Including store Instagram & website links on our site is a great win-win because:
1. It gives extra incentive for stores to participate since it promotes their brand.
2. It increases credibility for ICHC by associating with well-known grow shops & glass shops.
3. It drives traffic between ICHC and participating stores, making it easier for growers to find drop-off locations.
