3 reasons you acutely want to work with us!

  • Queer & Minority Owned

    Founded and run by Jerome Nichols, a sexual health advocate for over 15 years.

    He also happens to be an autistic cisgender gay black man. So, I know what it is to respect all peoples. 

  • Sustainably Sourced

    We vet our vendors not only for price and quality but also for ethics...

    We're not going to work with the extractive assholes who pillage the rainforest just because they're cheaper. Plus, no animals are harmed around here at The Butters. We're all about respecting and protecting life and helping others stand by their ethics.

  • Worker Rights

    No slave-extractionary labor practices here.

    We work as a team and treat our team fairly in a family environment. We’re a small, diverse, quick team who knows how to get things done. Plus, we make space for autistic and neurodiverse individuals, people with chronic pain, and those with complicated family lives.

  • Small Business

    We're not some nameless, faceless international capitalist corporate conglomerate sucking the soul out of the world.

    We're a group of five kick-ass people who give a damn about you and our clients.

    You can find our 700 sqft alchemist cave in downtown Ypsilanti, Michigan. We mix, pack, and ship all under one roof, with no third-party drop shipping from the middle of the Gobi Desert just to save a few bucks.
