Livewire’s Estrella Weedery Is The World’s First Estate-Grown Weedery
A Sustainable Cannabis Farm and Destination Focused On Premium Organic-Style Specialty Cannabis Products
Livewire Ergogenics Inc., trading at the OTC Marketplace under (OTCMKTS: LVVV) is a company focused on acquiring, managing, leasing, and licensing special-purpose real estate properties and operations conducive to producing high-quality, handcrafted, and organically grown specialty cannabis products for medical and recreational adult-use in California.
The company’s main operations are in Paso Robles, California, including the recently acquired Estrella Ranch, nestled among hundreds of world-renowned vineyards and Makana Ola Farms In Humboldt, California. The company says the Estrella Ranch property is the home to the world’s first “Estate Grown Weedery,” following the well-established vineyard business model, eventually developing it into a cannabis tourist destination in California.
Already an active cannabis-producing property, the company is turning Estrella Ranch into multiple revenue-stream properties while preserving its natural splendor and prioritizing environmentally conscious cultivation and business practices every step of the way, leaving behind the smallest possible carbon footprint possible.
Handcrafted Organic Cannabis Specialty Products May Help Keep Profit Margins High
With its initial pilot harvest completed last October, Livewire took the first step toward establishing the Estrella Weedery brand. The harvest was carried out by Livewire’s affiliate company, Estrella River Farms, which operates the cultivation on the Estrella property.
ERF uses state-of-the-art techniques to develop a sustainable, organic farm for growing various premium cannabis specialty products. The tractorless cultivation process uses less water, less fertilizer, and no toxic pesticides. The result is high-potency, premium cannabis that takes considerably less water than similar cultivation processes to produce.
To stay competitive with bigger California producers like Lowell Farms Inc. (OTCQX: LOWLF) or Glass House Brands (OTCQX: GLASF), LiveWire’s Estrella River Farms is focused on cultivating organic-style specialty products with higher profit margins. By focusing on quality instead of quantity (grow by the pound - sell by the gram), the company hopes to avoid the high cost and low return of mass-produced cannabis.
As the trend toward widespread legalization continues, with 52% of Americans living in areas with marijuana legalized in some form, the cost of cannabis has dropped in the United States, sinking to its lowest price in over three years in June. In Canada, nationwide legalization was followed by a 13% drop in price in the first year. Since then, retail prices across categories have continued to dip as more producers entered the space, still having to compete with larger illicit sales for market share. While that drop will likely level out, companies with tight margins must differentiate their products in distinctive ways to stay competitive.
For Livewire, that differentiation comes from quality specialty products, environmentally conscious production, and operating with significantly lower production costs to keep profit margins high.
In addition to its business-to-business sales, the company intends to get its premium Estrella Weedery branded product onto every dispensary shelf in California — either as a specialty product under its own brand or as a licensed private-label product under third-party brands. Livewire has also partnered with home-delivery services Kushagram and Green Eagle to deliver its cannabis products directly to consumers.
Applying The Tried And True Vineyard Model To Cannabis Cultivation Is Expected to Generate Additional Revenue
The ultimate vision at Estrella Ranch is simple: Sell its high-quality specialty products B to B and Direct to Consumers. Ultimately, create an idyllic wellness retreat complete with scenic vistas and currently over 130,000 square feet of sustainably cultivated cannabis, multiple offices, secure storage buildings, and large living quarters. When the project is finished, Livewire hopes to have roughly six (6) acres of outdoor growing area and 22,000 square feet of indoor cultivation, all while carefully preserving the natural, open landscape of rolling hills and well-watered ranchland.
Livewire’s Plan Is to Generate Multiple Revenue Streams From One Low-Cost Operation
In part, Livewire chose the Estrella Ranch location for the ideal micro-climate that makes organic, sun-grown outdoor cannabis cultivation possible. In less ideal climates, cultivators typically opt for indoor production to increase yield and compensate for poor weather or lack of sun.
But growing indoors means spending more on energy, facility maintenance, and other expenses that bring median average production costs up to $472 per pound. At Estrella, Livewire says production costs average under $100 per pound for its organic-style outdoor cultivation.
The company states that the lower production cost, paired with its plan to eventually generate revenue from the property via a first-of-its-kind cannabis wellness retreat and both direct-to-consumer and business-to-business sales of the cannabis it grows, creates the potential for a wide margin and substantial growth potential.

Amid A Turbulent Industry, This Cannabis Company Shines Like A Diamond In the Rough
by Faith Ashmore
October 25, 2022 8:37 AM | 3 min read
The pandemic was a monumental moment for the cannabis industry as marijuana became a household essential. In many states, dispensaries were declared essential businesses and were allowed to remain open, resulting in a 46% increase in legal cannabis sales over 2019 to $17.5 billion in 2020. Entrepreneurs flocked to the scene, and investors readily backed the industry. with large investments, often time via so-called SPACs.
However, the past several months have marked a return to pre-pandemic levels. While the cannabis industry is still predicted to expand and grow, the industry is witnessing an adaption curve. Between heavy taxation, cultivators abandoning licenses, and the pressure of growing inflation, many companies have put up “For Sale” signs or are looking at tough times ahead.
A Diamond In The Rough? The Party’s Just Getting Started For LiveWire Ergogenics
LiveWire Ergogenics, Inc. (OTC:LVVV)
LiveWire is a company that focuses on acquiring and managing special-purpose real estate properties that will serve as bases to help discover and develop high-end organic cannabis specialty products. LiveWire firmly positions itself in the center of the health and wellness industry.
The cannabis industry as a whole has seen a recent downturn in profits resulting in missed rent payments and cultivation facilities shutting down. While the industry as a whole is looking at positive growth, the reality on the ground for many cannabis companies may be bleak. Property deals have been falling through more frequently as companies struggle to make ends meet. Companies are facing difficulties with the slowing general economy paired with legislative challenges that plague the cannabis industry. Public policy is an uphill battle.
Despite these challenges in the market, LiveWire is prospering. Its Q2 results show solid growth and a positive future. In Q2, LiveWire generated $463,313 in revenue, which was a 323% increase from 2021’s Q2. Net profit also saw considerable growth; the company’s net profit was $183,122 in Q2 compared to a loss of $579,792 during 2021’s Q2.
LiveWire believes that U.S. cannabis companies must be well-managed and offer unique and high-quality products via legal and environmentally conscious operations, not low-quality mass production. That is a significant component of their success and the Company believes that diligent and disciplined investors will be presented with an exciting second opportunity to benefit from one of the last decade's fastest-growing markets for any industry. They expect to see reliable growth in cannabis industry sales going forward, and while still in the revenue startup phase that seems to already reflect in their own sales.
LiveWire has developed Estrella Ranch as the central hub for all LiveWire and subsidiary operations. This property is being developed into the first “Estate Grown Weedery,” and eventually the ultimate cannabis destination in California.
As of October, the Ranch has passed all quarterly inspections by the county and state and was renewed for its annual permit. The Estrella Ranch has also received nine new cultivation permits that will allow for an expanded outdoor cultivation area. As Q3 and Q4 approach, the company is exploring the buildout of an already existing building on Estrella Ranch as an indoor cultivation area. If implemented and considered economical this is expected to help further drive revenue.
Based on Livewire’s philosophy that any cannabis company has to be subject to strict financial principles and must operate with low overhead and reasonable debt burden to produce increasing revenues and profits, LiveWire does not seem to be experiencing the same dilemmas that other companies in the industry are facing. If their Q2 report and business expansion plans are any indications, LiveWire seems to have a strong future ahead of it.

He also mentioned building an indoor grow operation there as well… maybe the 3 acres of grow can help develop that.. but one thing is for sure, that’s gonna take time to do…Bill does everything he can cost affective as possible.. slow and steady is what we can expect here imo… I’m just hoping he can finally get enough income coming in so as to not mess with the share structure anymore..
LiveWire Ergogenics Reports Financial Performance
for the First Quarter of 2022
Revenue Increased by 392% and Net Profit by 103%
Outlook for Second Half of 2022
Anaheim, CA, May 17, 2022 -- LiveWire Ergogenics Inc. (OTC: LVVV), a company focused on acquiring, managing, and licensing special purpose real estate properties conducive to producing handcrafted and organically grown high-quality cannabis products for medical and recreational adult-use in California; today announced the release of its Financial Report for the first quarter of 2022.
Bill Hodson, CEO of LiveWire Ergogenics, states, "With the action-packed year of 2021 behind us, we are now moving forward with a razor-sharp focus on the continued expansion at Estrella Ranch to three acres for the cultivation of the highest quality sun-grown, organic cannabis in the State. We have concluded the acquisition of a majority equity interest in Estrella Ranch Partners and have acquired a one hundred percent equity interest in Makana Ola Farms in Humboldt, California. We plan to continue carefully expanding our operations, utilizing the intense experience of the last two years to develop Estrella Ranch into the ultimate cannabis cultivation destination in California. We will focus on the success of Estrella River Farms to cultivate the best possible hand-crafted product and not get distracted by the mass production of cannabis. We believe that increasing customer demand for hand-crafted products versus mass-produced ones supports our narrowly focused, organic-style cultivation business model. We will continue to carefully implement our unique vision following a strict operating discipline with a low overhead and debt burden to produce substantial revenues and profits moving forward."
Q1 2022 Financial Results
Revenues increased by 392%.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, revenues amounted to $408,519, an increase of $325,519 or 392% over the same period in 2021. The increase in revenue is due to higher income in related party revenue, based on rental and licensing fees and the management of our subsidiaries and affiliate companies' intellectual and real estate properties. We expect Livewire's licensing and management fees related to the first harvest of Estrella River Farms to increase revenues further and be recognized in the second quarter of 2022.
Note: On March 10, 2022, an AAA arbitrator in New York awarded the Company a total of $352,493.02, including damages and costs of arbitration against JS Barkats PLLC ("JSB. Livewire petitioned the Federal Court for the Southern District of New York to confirm the AAA award to be paid to LiveWire. The amount will be recognized as income once collected.
Profit from Operations increased by 103%. For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, our net profit was $11,668 compared to a loss of $338,794 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, an improvement of $350,462 or 103%%. The increase is based on higher licensing and management fees. In contrast, stock-based compensation for consulting services increased slightly, somewhat offset by a decrease in expenses for general and administrative, which decreased from $30,324 to $26,106.
Total Assets Exceed Liabilities by $1,067,818. At the end of March 31, 2022, assets increased to $4,718,650 from $ 4,520,877 in the same period in 2021. Our assets exceed our liabilities by $1,067,818, an improvement of $155,686 versus the period ending December 31, 2021.
Bill Hodson, CEO of Livewire Ergogenics, continues, " As of this writing, our affiliate Estrella River Farms has received approval for the renewal of our annual permit. We expect to receive approval for the next two acres of cultivation area on Estrella Ranch within days. This will expand the outdoor cultivation area to a canopy of 150sqft. We are also in the early planning stages to build out our existing covered arena into 22,000 sqft. of indoor cultivation. This will allow us to balance different pricing between indoor and outdoor cultivation products for a more even revenue generation throughout the entire year. As we have announced before, to take advantage of the exceptional quality of our sun-grown cannabis and generate higher Revenue, ERF partnered with Phire Labs to convert its biomass into connoisseur-craft extract products manufactured and distributed by Phire. This will command a higher value for our products than simply selling raw flower to manufacturers. Using ERF's raw materials to produce its connoisseur-craft extracts, Phire will also manufacture our private label product featuring "Estate Grown Weedery™" for distribution through its established distribution channels. We expect to recognize increased Revenue based on this agreement in Q2 of 2022.
2022 Milestones
v Expand cultivation area to three acres for over 130,000 sq. ft. of canopy
v Renewal of first State License for initial acreage
v Grant of second State licenses for two additional acres
v Submit plans and permit applications for 22,000 sq. ft. of indoor cultivation
v Launch "Estrella Weedery" house brands with distribution to hundreds of dispensaries
v Develop products for third-party private label products
v Enter joint ventures with manufacturers and distributors
v Acquire additional properties that qualify for the LiveWire business model

“Are they drilling any holes??” Yep, deep down into investors pockets. LoL
Seems like they should be losing the UpList soon… below a penny for some time now.
LiveWire Ergogenics - Update
We are now uploading applications for the next 2 acres for ERF, for a total of 3 acres. We need to upload 9 apps because CA only allows one, 1-acre license per property, but the state allows you to stack smaller licenses of 10ksf each. Strange rule, but that’s how we have to roll

Shifting Focus: One Company’s Journey Toward the Cannabis Real Estate and Management Market
The following post was written and/or published as a collaboration between Benzinga’s in-house sponsored content team and a financial partner of Benzinga.
A trend seems to have emerged in the sectors surrounding cannabis. And one company could be at the forefront of it — acquiring, managing, and licensing cannabis real estate properties.
According to 365 CannabisTM and others, here are some of the current top-performing cannabis consulting/management companies offering a variety of services from choosing, qualifying, and acquiring real estate for facilities to every detail of business management.
Cannabis Real Estate Consultants
420 Property
Higher Yields Consulting
Canna Business Resources
Indiva Advisors LLP
Bridge West LLC
American Cannabis Co. Inc. (OTCQB: AMMJ)
LiveWire Ergogenics Inc. (OTC: LVVV) is aiming to garner a leading position on this list as the company is focused on acquiring and managing special-purpose real estate properties in the California cannabis market.
The company’s strategy has been to qualify, acquire and manage cannabis real estate properties and partner with select companies and 3rd-party operators that cultivate high-end, organic, and hand-crafted cannabinoid products.
California has a complex permit application process. Not to mention the ever-evolving and often changing compliance laws. However, LiveWire is confident that its previous experience combined with its in-depth knowledge regarding regulations, local ordinances, and environmental requirements positions it for success in the cannabis real estate and management market.
More About LiveWire Ergogenics Inc.
One of LiveWire’s most recent ventures on the path of establishing an identity as real estate owners, management, and operators is the development of the world’s first Estate Grown Weedery.
To make this vision a reality, LiveWire has acquired a historic ranch property deep in California wine country.
The Paso Robles-based weedery is a fully compliant and permitted family-style farm, intended to produce and distribute high-quality, organically grown cannabis products in California. Additionally, LiveWire is working towards the creation of a nationally recognized organic “Estrella Weedery” brand.
LiveWire says it has partnered with QDG Agriculture LLC, a company specializing in state-of-the-art cannabis cultivation practices backed by academia and proven results with a long track record of success. QDG uses proprietary, premium 100% organic living soil. This blend uses 60% less water, 50% less fertilizer, and zero toxic pesticides, creating an ultra-efficient regenerative plant environment in strict compliance with the rules that LiveWire has established for all operators on its ranch.
QDG states that it uses state-of-the-art technology and science executed by a team of professionals with 20 years of experience. The QDG system is proven to be cost-effective, easily scalable, and represents 100% organic tractorless farming practices.
QDG intends to produce marketable cannabis strains under LiveWire’s Estrella brand.

LiveWire Ergogenics Announces the Formation
of the San Luis Obispo Cannabis Growers Alliance
Anaheim, CA, November 3, 2021 -- LiveWire Ergogenics Inc. (OTC: LVVV), a company focused on acquiring, managing, and licensing special purpose real estate properties conducive to producing high-quality, handcrafted, and organically grown cannabis products for medical and recreational adult-use in California; today announced it has formed the San Luis Obispo Cannabis Growers Alliance.
After over two years of complex and sometimes confusing experiences, coupled with a mixture of support and resistance, Livewire has formed the San Luis Obispo Growers Alliance, SLOGrow.org. The group provides a platform to share experiences, encourage discussion, and create an environment of positive cooperation between Growers and the local communities they call home. SLOGrow aims to advocate sensible cannabis oversight and impact policy for the California central coast at the local, community, and state levels.
The Alliance is a cannabis advocacy group located in the San Luis Obispo area dedicated to the highest ethical, legal, and environmental standards for the region’s cannabis cultivation operations. The Alliance is administered, coordinated, and moderated by Lisa Bugrova, the newly appointed Executive Director of the SLO Grow Alliance.
SLO Grow Alliance Executive Director Lisa Bugrova states, "Along with supporting our alliance members with policy advocacy, project-level support, and compliance guidance, SLO Grow aims to bridge the understanding between growers, regulators, conventional agriculture, and ag-supportive businesses in the area. SLO Grow aims to build a robust advocacy network for the entire industry to encourage the development of local enforcement oversight to one of trust with the industry’s legal operators. Instead of addressing duplicating efforts for different authority regulations, operators should be able to rely more on the comprehensive regulatory framework created by the State for licensing and tracking throughout California. We are committed to ensuring that the Central Coast Growers become a united force and will be able to combine efforts with other growers throughout California to make a positive and lasting impact for their operations and surrounding communities."
?
SLO Grow will advocate for the ethical and responsible growth of the legal cannabis industry and function as a voice for the rights of the cannabis supply chain in San Luis Obispo, California. The Alliance consists of dedicated members who have a passion for advocating for sensible cannabis oversight and policy. An essential focus of the organization is to educate the public in general and the surrounding communities regarding the science behind medicine and the positive aspects of the industry - including environmental, economic, and sociological impact. At the same time, Slo Grow will connect key stakeholders in the cannabis community throughout the State of California to encourage cooperative communication and the highest levels of professionalism within the legal cannabis industry.
A NETWORK OF GROWERS
The San Luis Obispo Cannabis Growers Alliance advocates for reasonable local cannabis ordinances in SLO county in sync with the State laws and strives to empower growers and their communities through education and assistance with their interaction with the appropriate authorities. The Alliance provides resources for those interested in entering the heavily regulated marketplace while providing opportunities at events that foster team-building among members. The group believes that the impact of the Alliance will be more significant than any individual or company on their own. Years of negative cannabis propaganda have created an environment where cannabis professionals must now inform and educate the authorities and public on the facts and protect our industry's rights.
SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH RESPONSIBLE CANNABIS POLICY
Cannabis is making its mark on the agriculture industry. Legalization has paved the way for legal cannabis operators to openly begin working together to continue legitimizing our industry as one that is not bound by the false representation of the past but supported by undisputed studies about healthcare, public safety, and environmental and economic impact.
ABOUT THE SLO GROW ALLIANCE
The professionals within our Slo Grow network have gone through the process – and in some cases, multiple times. You will find the help you need from essential tips along the way to often more profound help and guidance. We will assist in overcoming unique challenges and ensure that our industry is well-positioned within the agricultural community by working together and operating at the highest standards. Successful and sustainable growth is always in balance with its environment. Using the highest quality genetics and premium soil blends will ensure a bountiful crop and profitable operations while displaying the utmost respect for our environment. Members have access to benefits such as compliance assistance, industry consultants, marketing & branding, and even fluid engineers with a vast network of professionals involved. We encourage and welcome you to get involved at www.slogrow.org
