Independent cannabis media platform and Colorado’s award-winning flower, hash, and live rosin team unite around quality, integrity, and doing business the right way.
ATLANTA, GA, October 15, 2026 – Fat Nugs Magazine is proud to officially announce a new brand partnership with Syntrophia Colorado Holdings Inc. d/b/a SUMMIT MADE, the Colorado cannabis company known for premium flower, hash, and live rosin made by people who genuinely give a damn about quality.
This partnership naturally grew from a real relationship between Fat Nugs Magazine Founder and Editor-at-Large Dustin Hoxworth and Summit Made Founding Partner and CEO Holden Farahani. The two have crossed paths at several industry events, spent time together, shared great conversations and food, and built a phenomenal relationship rooted in a lot of the things that still matter most in cannabis: excellent flower, exceptional rosin, treating people right, doing good business, and showing up for this industry with real respect.
“Holden and I have been to several events together now, and every time we see each other, the relationship gets stronger,” said Hoxworth. “There is a real appreciation there for great flower, great rosin, good people, and good business. Holden has shared some truly amazing live rosin with me along the way, but what stands out even more is the way he and the Summit Made team move through this industry. They care about their people, the plant, and doing things the right way. That matters to our team.”
Summit Made has earned a reputation as one of Colorado’s standout cannabis operators by refusing to cut corners. Their work begins with carefully cultivated flower and carries through each stage of production, from harvest and cure to hash making, live rosin, and finished products. The result is cannabis that is not simply branded as premium, but built with the kind of consistency, care, and process that connoisseurs can recognize immediately.
The company’s solventless live rosin is made from flower cultivated specifically for that purpose and processed using ice, water, heat, and pressure. That approach is meant to protect the plant’s natural flavor and terpene expression, giving consumers a clean, full-bodied representation of the cultivar. Summit Made also produces premium packaged flower, pre-rolls, live resin products, and vape offerings, all with the same focus on quality from cultivation through the final experience.
Their commitment has not gone unnoticed. Summit Made’s flower and extracts have collected multiple first-place finishes, including a four-time first-place live rosin record. The company has also been recognized as one of the Best Companies to Work For in cannabis in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Those acknowledgments say a lot. Awards for products matter, especially in a crowded market where everybody claims to have the best flower or hash. But recognition for how a company treats its employees speaks to something deeper about the culture being built behind the jars. That’s a major reason this partnership makes sense.
As an official Fat Nugs Magazine Brand Partner, Summit Made will work closely with the FNM team to help showcase what the company is actually doing in the space, what separates its flower and rosin from the pack, and why its approach resonates with consumers, retailers, and fellow cannabis professionals.
Over the course of the partnership, Fat Nugs Magazine and Summit Made will collaborate on storytelling, educational content, brand features, digital placement, social amplification, editorial opportunities, and more. The work will explore the people, processes, cultivation practices, product philosophy, and culture behind Summit Made, while giving the FNM audience a closer look at what it takes to build cannabis products with real intention.
“This is the kind of partnership I love,” Hoxworth added. “There is a difference between working with a brand because they want attention and working with a brand because there is actually something worth paying attention to. Summit Made is doing the work. They are growing great flower, making excellent hash and rosin, and treating people well along the way. They’re building a company with integrity, and we’re excited to help tell that story in a way that feels honest, useful, and true to who they are.”
For Summit Made, the partnership provides an opportunity to connect with Fat Nugs Magazine’s national audience through a trusted independent media platform that puts culture, credibility, and community before corporate fluff. FNM will maintain its editorial standards and independent voice throughout the collaboration, ensuring the stories created together are meaningful, accurate, and worth the audience’s time.
This announcement is only the beginning. Fans of both Fat Nugs Magazine and Summit Made can expect an inside look at the cultivation and solventless craft behind the brand, conversations with the people leading the work, product-focused education, and storytelling that celebrates exceptional cannabis without losing sight of the values that make the company worth supporting.
