Franny Tacy has more energy than just about anyone you’ve ever met. On any given day she’s been awake since before daybreak hustling, from bottle feeding baby goats and lambs, tending to gardens and guests, hosting CBD/goat yoga on her hemp farm and strategizing with her dedicated husband, Jeff Tacy

I’m super excited to make some announcements and give you a few updates. Our Franny’s Manufacturing stock campaign has surpassed the 100k mark. This is exciting as it will help us improve some of our manufacturing processes and improve the efficiency of our systems.
Having recently received our first campaign disbursement I have our team working diligently on fulfilling the perks that go along with your investment. It normally takes 3-4 weeks for our team to facilitate receiving the necessary merchandise and turning it around to each of you. We appreciate your patience with this process.
Yesterday I found out that we made the May 2020 cover of the Franchise Times Magazine. FTM is the premier publication for the franchising industry and getting a cover story is huge for entire system of Franny’s vertically integrated businesses. As more franchises are sold and opened it adds demand to our Distribution and Manufacturing businesses. https://www.franchisetimes.com/Issue-Archive/
We’ve held strong during this pandemic and I can clearly see that our Brand is gaining an increased amount regional and national recognition. Our online sales are growing on a weekly and monthly basis yet again adding to the demand on our supply chain.
On behalf of the entire Franny’s team and all of the stockholders I want to personally thank you for your confidence, commitment and investment in our company and future. I’m please with the progress I’m seeing and quite excited about the opportunities ahead of us in the coming weeks, months and years.

Hello! Recently, a change was made to the Franny's Distribution Incorporated offering. Here's an excerpt describing the specifics of the change:
Extended length of campaign.
When live offerings undergo changes like these on StartEngine, the SEC requires that certain investments be reconfirmed. If your investment requires reconfirmation, you will be contacted by StartEngine via email with further instructions.

Hey Franny's Fam!
Jeff and Franny here! It was a big week in the cannabis world (when isn't it?!?)
We are so excited that you all continue to bless us with your faith and trust. We have now passed the 335K mark! We are almost 80% funded for this round!
Beyond our farm, the US Gov't decided to make a large step forward by passing the SAFE banking Act. This will continue to demonstrate to all Americans, that cannabis is open for business!
Look out for some exciting updates in the near future!

Hey Franny's Family/Friends!
We hope everyone is enjoying the end of their summer! We are continuing to use the funds received through your investments to grow our company. Not only have we continued to improve our website and ramp up marketing efforts, we were able to grow the team by one key member!
We just hired Michael Carlson for our VP of Sales/Marketing role.
He comes to us with almost two-decades of sales experience within B2B and B2C sales space. He is super excited to come aboard with Franny's and continue to streamline our systems. We expect him to build our wholesale, white label, drop ship accounts, while growing our sales team! We look forward to welcoming him to our team!
Thanks for your continued support of our mission here at Franny's. Please continue to share this campaign with your friends/family and within your social media channels.

Hey Franny's Family!
I hope each and everyone of you is enjoying a restful, relaxing holiday weekend! We certainly don't take much time off around the farm. We're out there getting our crops ready for harvest season!
This is an exciting time around the farm, as we prepare to harvest, dry, and cure the crop that will make its way into all of the fantastic Franny's products you are supporting with your investments! Beyond that, we have been fortunate to take on 4 neighboring farms this year under our NC grow permit. This means we are able to support 4 hard-working, local farm families sustainably support themselves. I'm sure you've seen the "livable wage" debate rage on throughout America. We work very hard to pay each our farmers a sustainable price for their product. This is an extremely important component of what we do at Frannys. We build, nourish and support our local community.
Please help Frannys get over the next big hump of 250K raised!

Hey Franny's Family!
We are getting amped up here at Frannys for our hemp harvest season. Frannys was featured on a PBS Newshour segment on WNC hemp. It really highlights the intentional and tireless energy that goes into creating the consistently high quality products we sell.
Our campaign has also met a historic milestone! By the time this update reaches you, we have likely reached the half-way raise at 220K invested in our second campaign!
Thank you for your support, confidence and help! We welcome you to our Franny's Family and to make this opportunity even more impactful, we are asking you to extend the Franny's love with your personal friends and family. Share our campaign on your social media, in your local Facebook group and talk it up at your next neighborhood grill out! Make it the topic of conversation and get your favorite people involved to push Frannys towards the finish line. We look forward to the celebration with you!
We have so many exciting things on the horizon. These funds will allow us to continue to grow here at Frannys, and continue to spread our message far and wide!

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements. To learn more about Regulation Crowdfunding, click here, and for Regulation A+, click here.
