Reading Time: 2 minutes

U.S. troops and VA hospitals across the country will receive donated
coffee bags from the biannual Coffee for the Troops campaign with
Soldiers’ Angels

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#bam–U.S. troops serving overseas will soon have a familiar taste of home
thanks to the generous community members who participated in Books-A-Million’s
13th Coffee for the Troops campaign with Soldiers’
Angels
. Throughout Military Appreciation Month in May, customers had
the opportunity to show their patronage for the country’s heroes by
donating a bag of freshly ground Joe Muggs coffee. Books-A-Million
guests gave 85,000 bags of coffee, and the book store chain contributed
one for every five bags donated – pushing the total to over 100,000 bags
of coffee to give to those who serve as well as veterans and VA
hospitals across the country.

“Coffee for the Troops is just a small opportunity to show our troops
and veterans how thankful we are for their service,” said Matt Krenza,
vice president of the food division at Books-A-Million. “Without our
generous customers and partnership with Soldiers’ Angels, we wouldn’t be
able to provide brave soldiers with a sense of familiarity while they
selflessly serve and protect our country. I’m proud to share that we
exceeded this year’s goal by more than 40 percent!”

Since 2012, Books-A-Million has partnered with Soldiers’ Angels to
donate more than 750,000 bags of coffee to veterans and VA hospitals in
the United States, as well as to troops currently serving overseas. Each
year, Coffee for the Troops has surpassed its donation goals thanks to
the generosity of supporters all across the country.

Customers also had the opportunity to write a personalized message on
the donated bags to express their appreciation to the U.S. soldiers and
veterans.

Apollo Green to distribute Humboldt Seed Company clonal cannabis genetics to Germany, Portugal and Australia

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Humboldt Seed Company (HSC), California’s leading cannabis seed producer, has announced a partnership with Canadian-based Apollo Green to make eight breeder cuts available to researchers, licensed commercial cultivators and home growers in legal markets worldwide. This first-to-market clonal genetics release is a significant milestone and will expand access to distinctive, high-quality cannabis genetics in both established and emerging global markets including Germany, Portugal and Australia.

The curated, breeder-verified selection includes pioneering triploid genetics, such as OG Triploid and Donutz Triploid alongside the legendary cult classic Blueberry Muffin. Also available are All Gas OG with a THC content of 21% and four high-THC strains in the 30-35% range: Golden Sands, Guzzlerz, Jelly Donutz and Orange Creampop. These selections represent the top .01% from HSC’s extensive California pheno-hunting program.

Exports will begin in May under Apollo Green’s Canadian federal cannabis license. All shipments have Canadian phytosanitary certification, ensuring plants have been inspected, and are clean and free of pests.

“Access for all to quality genetics has been our core focus since the beginning,” said HSC Co-founder and Chief Science Officer, Benjamin Lind. “Our science-based approach to breeding aligns perfectly with Apollo Green’s high standards and we are excited to be able to extend these hand-selected cuts to a wider audience, especially at this pivotal time where we’re seeing positive regulatory changes globally.”

Oisin Tierney, Apollo Green Director of Business Development, said, “California has long been recognized for setting industry standards, and we are proud to play a role in bringing these esteemed genetics to cultivators worldwide. The triploids are especially noteworthy in terms of the unprecedented potential for enhanced plant vigor, higher yields, shorter flowering times and superior returns for solventless extraction.”
