Dear Friends,
I write this with a heavy heart.
After 15 years in the industry, I am officially closing Inspired By Charlie as it exists today. Due to increasing fees, taxes, regulations, and continued changes here in Michigan—and with additional changes coming in mid 2026—it has become impossible for me to keep the business operating the way it has for so many years.
This decision was not made lightly. I have done everything I can to keep the doors open, but the financial and regulatory burden has reached a point where continuing is no longer sustainable.
That said, this is not goodbye.
The Inspired By Charlie website will be transitioning to feature Made-in-Michigan products, including handcrafted items created by myself and other local vendors. A limited selection of familiar products will remain available—specifically items that do not require licensing. These include Farmer Pfeiffer’s Pain Cream, select topicals, and pet shampoo and conditioner. These products use hemp seed oil and targeted terpenes only and will now be offered under the Tucker Farms brand.
All applicable products will continue to be third-party tested, just as they always have been.
This transition will take place at the end of January, and there may be a brief adjustment period as changes roll out. I truly appreciate your patience during this time.
If you have any questions, you can reach me directly at

Most of all, thank you—for your trust, your loyalty, and your belief in these products over the years. Your support has meant more to me than I can ever properly express.
With sincere gratitude,
Tucker
