In addition to managing operations as Bardo’s co-founder & CEO, Erik Carbone is the co-founder and lead grower at Tricolla Farms. Combining his many years of logistics and management experience in the construction industry with his passion for cannabis and horticulture, Erik dove head-first into hemp cultivation in 2017 and hasn’t looked back. His determination and intense desire to help people heal and connect through cannabis has made him a leader in the NYS hemp industry. Focusing on craft cultivation and sustainable practices, he also consults for other farmers looking to transition into hemp, providing assistance in all areas of farm operations; from sourcing genetics and equipment, to implementing irrigation systems and harvest plans, to selling the crop and responsibly bringing products to market. The quality of Bardo’s extracts are a direct reflection of the quality of Tricolla Farms’ flower and the tireless work that Erik puts in to ensure the ethos of quality, sustainability, and reverence for the cannabis plant are present from the very start.
