Countdown to Spring with 10 Days of Giveaways Presented by Made in PGH + Innovative Extracts

We’re all feeling the seasonal depression lifting off of our shoulders with a little warm weather. After such a long, tough winter we’re also feeling super generous. So, once again, Made in PGH & Innovative Extracts are counting down to spring with 10 Days of Giveaways.

We had so much fun teaming up with Andy, Vince & Matt for our 25 Days of Giveaways in December, we couldn’t think of a better team for this event. If you don’t know who they are yet, we’ll catch you up. Andy, Vince and Matt are the founders and owners of Innovative Extracts. The veteran-owned and seed-to-sale farm is all about growing and supporting local. The 3 guys are experts in the CBD world and are always ready to answer your questions. Just send them a DM on IG.

Now, onto the giveaway. 

Here’s how it works:

Starting on March 11^th, we’ll be posting an in-story giveaway leading up to the first day of spring (March 20^th). Just follow the local business and swipe to enter. Easy! We’ll DM the winner the next day. We recommend turning on post notifications for @madeinpgh so you don’t miss out.
