Upstate Elevator Operators’ Grape GMO Wins Leafly’s Best Vermont Strain and Brand of 2024

It’s an official repeat! For the second year in a row, one of our in-house living soil strains has claimed the title of Best Vermont Strain for the 2024 Leafly Budtender’s Choice Awards. Following Elvis Glue’s win in 2023, the strain that took the crown this year is none other than our very own Grape GMO. This uplifting indica hybrid has regularly been included in our harvest rotation as it’s been a favorite amongst our budtenders and customers since we first bred it.


What Makes Grape GMO So Special?

Grape GMO is a true standout, and we couldn’t be more excited to see it get the recognition it deserves. We combine Grape Stomper’s mouth-watering flavor with the raw potency of GMO to create this terpene-laden, living soil masterpiece. Our pheno-hunt was long, but we locked in on just the right funky, rancid grape note to overpower the chunky bullion musk of GMO.
