The Twin Cities vs. The St. Croix: Finding Your Perfect Serving Size

If you’ve been following the journey of Simply Crafted, you know we’re rooted in the heart of Northeast Minneapolis. But as the hemp industry in the North Star State settles into its official 2026 regulations, things have become a bit more... refined.

Minnesota has set a clear path for "Lower-Potency Hemp Edibles," and while we love being your local go-to on Central Ave, we know that many of our community members are looking for an experience that goes beyond the standard 5 mg serving.


Understanding the MN Cap

In Minnesota, legal hemp-derived edibles are currently limited to:

  • 5 mg THC per serving

  • 50 mg THC per package

These limits are great for a consistent, social buzz, and we’ve perfected that science with our Simply Crafted lineup—including our award-winning Apple Crumble White Chocolate. But what if your tolerance or your wellness routine requires more?

Cross the River to Simply Crafted Luxe

This is where our sister location in Hudson, Wisconsin comes in. Think of our Hudson branch as Simply Crafted Luxe.

Because Wisconsin operates under different regulations, our Hudson store and our partner brand, Luxe, are able to offer the high-potency products that seasoned enthusiasts often prefer. While we strictly follow the 5 mg rule in our Minneapolis backyard, Luxe is our destination for those who want:

  • Higher Potency: Serving sizes that exceed the 5 mg MN cap.

  • Bulk Options: Packages that offer more than 50 mg total.

  • Expanded Cannabinoids: A deeper dive into Delta-9 and high-potency blends for those outside of Minnesota or visiting us across the border.


Two Locations, One Commitment to Quality

Whether you are stopping by for a MN-compliant 5 mg session or heading over to Hudson for the Luxe experience, you’re getting the same Simply Crafted standard. We still avoid plastic-contact in our processes, we still prioritize artisanal ingredients, and we still treat every cannabinoid with the respect it deserves.


Living in MN? Enjoy our local Simply Crafted favorites. Looking for more? Take the short drive to Hudson or visit Luxe online to explore high-potency options that ship where legal.

How has your routine changed with the new MN limits?
