When the North Fork winter sets in and temperatures drop into the mid-twenties, joints that were manageable in September start telling a different story. For year-round Southold residents many of whom have spent decades farming, fishing, oystering, or working trades along the water that seasonal shift isn’t just uncomfortable. It’s something they push through every single day.
CBD gummies for joint pain and arthritis aren’t a trend for this crowd. They’re a practical, daily-use option for people whose bodies have earned every ache they carry. We’ve seen this pattern repeat across Southold and the surrounding hamlets: the cold arrives, the pain intensifies, and people start looking for something that actually works.
Sleep is another one. When the wine tourists pack up after Labor Day and the North Fork goes quiet, the long, cold evenings can disrupt your sleep in ways that are hard to explain to someone who hasn’t lived it. The seasonal shift is real, and so is the disruption it brings. CBD gummies for sleep especially formulations with CBN, which showed measurable results for reducing nighttime awakenings in a 2024 randomized clinical trial give your body a non-habit-forming way to wind down.
Anxiety follows a similar pattern. High housing costs, seasonal economic uncertainty, and the quiet isolation of a North Fork winter are real, documented stressors for Southold residents. CBD gummies for anxiety aren’t a silver bullet, but for many people, they’re the thing that finally takes the edge off enough to function without any psychoactive effect, without impairment, and without the side effects that come with pharmaceutical options.
We founded D&D CBD, Inc. in 2019 because our daughter Erika, who has CHARGE syndrome and has undergone more than 60 surgeries, needed real, consistent relief from pain and anxiety. CBD had to work. That’s a very different starting point than a brand built around a trend.
In 2025, we were featured in Dan’s Papers one of the most widely read publications on the East End, distributed throughout Southold and the broader North Fork. That kind of editorial recognition isn’t something you buy. It’s something you earn by being a real business that actually helps people.
Brandon Nichol joined as a business partner in September 2024 and handles much of the direct customer work including virtual consultations, local delivery, and yes, the occasional house call. If you’re in Southold, Mattituck, Cutchogue, or anywhere along Route 25, you’re not too far out of reach. And if you’d rather not wait, a virtual appointment gets you the same conversation from wherever you are.
Most people who reach out to us start with a question, not an order. That’s fine. That’s actually the point. We operate on an appointment basis specifically because CBD gummies are not a one-size-fits-all product the right dose, the right cannabinoid profile, and the right delivery format depend on what you’re dealing with, how your body responds, and what you’ve already tried.
You can book a consultation in person or virtually. For Southold residents who aren’t looking to make a long drive down Route 25, the virtual option works exactly the same way you talk through your situation, Brandon walks you through which products make sense for your specific needs, and you leave with a clear plan rather than a guess.
Once you’ve got your product, we back everything with a third-party Certificate of Analysis a real lab document, not a marketing badge. It shows you the exact cannabinoid content, the heavy metal screening, the pesticide results, and the potency. You can read it yourself. New York State’s OCM regulations require this level of testing for all cannabinoid hemp products sold in-state, and every product we offer meets that standard.

We offer gummies across three non-psychoactive cannabinoids CBD, CBN, and CBG which is more than most CBD brands bother to explain, let alone offer. CBD is the broad foundation: well-researched, widely used for anxiety, pain, and inflammation. CBN is more targeted toward sleep, with a 2024 randomized trial specifically showing it may reduce nighttime awakenings relevant for anyone on the North Fork who knows what it feels like to lie awake at 3 a.m. in January when the wind is coming off Long Island Sound. CBG has its own distinct profile and is gaining attention for mood and focus support.
All our products contain 0.3% THC or less, which is the federal legal threshold and the New York State OCM standard. There is no psychoactive effect. No high. No impairment. For Southold residents who’ve seen recreational cannabis dispensaries pop up across the East End and aren’t sure where CBD fits in that picture, the distinction matters: we sell hemp-derived, THC-free CBD gummies that are fully legal for adults 21 and over in New York, and they produce none of the effects associated with THC products.
Every product is made in the USA and comes with a Certificate of Analysis that meets New York’s December 2023 OCM testing requirements covering cannabinoid potency, heavy metals, microbial impurities, pesticides, and residual solvents. We offer local delivery across Long Island, confirmed by multiple customer reviews. If you’re in Cutchogue or Orient and you’d rather not make the drive, that matters.
Yes, hemp-derived CBD gummies are fully legal in Southold and throughout New York State for adults 21 and over. The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived CBD at the federal level, and New York’s Office of Cannabis Management regulates the sale of cannabinoid hemp products at the state level. Products must contain 0.3% THC or less, pass third-party lab testing, and carry a Certificate of Analysis with a scannable QR code all of which our products already meet.
New York updated its cannabinoid hemp regulations in late 2023, with stricter testing and labeling requirements taking effect December 13, 2023, and January 1, 2024. That means any compliant CBD gummy sold in Southold has been tested for cannabinoid potency, heavy metals, pesticides, microbial impurities, and residual solvents. When you buy from us, you can pull up that lab report yourself. That’s not standard practice across the industry, but it’s the standard here.
No. CBD, CBN, and CBG are all non-psychoactive cannabinoids. They do not produce a high, and they do not impair your ability to drive or function. Our products contain 0.3% THC or less far below any threshold associated with psychoactive effects. This is a common concern, especially for people in Southold who see CBD sold alongside THC products at East End dispensaries and aren’t sure what they’re actually getting.
The confusion is understandable given how quickly the cannabis retail landscape has changed on Long Island. But hemp-derived CBD gummies are a distinct product category. They work through the body’s endocannabinoid system to support things like mood regulation, sleep, and pain response without altering your state of mind. If you’re a year-round Southold resident who works a physically demanding job, drives regularly on Route 25, or is simply cautious about anything cannabis-adjacent, THC-free CBD gummies from us are formulated specifically with that concern in mind.
This is one of the most common questions people have, and it’s also one of the main reasons we operate on an appointment basis rather than just putting products on a shelf. The right dose depends on your body weight, your specific condition, how sensitive you are to cannabinoids, and what you’ve tried before. A general starting point that comes up frequently is somewhere in the 15–25mg range, but that’s a starting point not a prescription.
What tends to happen when people skip the guidance step is they underdose, feel nothing, and conclude that CBD doesn’t work for them. That’s a frustrating outcome that a 10-minute conversation could have prevented. Whether you’re dealing with joint pain from years of physical work on the North Fork, sleep disruption during the quieter winter months, or anxiety that’s been building for a while, the goal of a consultation with us is to match you with the right product and the right starting dose.
Full-spectrum CBD gummies contain a range of cannabinoids, terpenes, and plant compounds from the hemp plant including trace amounts of THC, always at or below the 0.3% federal legal limit. The idea behind full-spectrum is that these compounds work better together than in isolation, which is why many people find full-spectrum products more effective than CBD isolate alone. The THC level is too low to produce any psychoactive effect, but it is present.
THC-free options sometimes called broad-spectrum go through additional processing to remove THC entirely while keeping other beneficial cannabinoids intact. These are a good fit for anyone subject to workplace drug testing, anyone who is particularly cautious about THC for personal reasons, or anyone who simply wants the assurance that there is zero THC in what they’re taking. We carry options across this spectrum, and a consultation will help you figure out which approach makes more sense for your specific situation and concerns.
A lot of the people asking this question in Southold are dealing with joint pain that has a very specific cause years of physical work on farms, vineyards, fishing boats, or construction sites, combined with the kind of cold, windy winters that the North Fork gets every year. Cold temperatures and barometric pressure drops are documented triggers for increased joint stiffness and arthritis symptoms, and for a community with a median age in the early fifties, that’s not a minor seasonal inconvenience.
CBD has been studied for its potential role in reducing inflammation and supporting pain management, and many of our customers specifically use our products for joint pain and arthritis relief. The key is finding the right product and dose a topical salve works differently than a gummy, and a higher-potency option may be more appropriate for chronic pain than a standard dose. A consultation is designed to work through this, rather than leaving you to figure it out by trial and error on your own.
We offer local delivery across Long Island, which has been confirmed by multiple customer reviews. For residents in Southold hamlet, Mattituck, Cutchogue, Peconic, Greenport, Orient, or any of the other hamlets along the North Fork, this means you don’t have to make a trip down Route 25 to pick up your order. Given how spread out the Town of Southold is spanning from Laurel in the west all the way to Orient Point delivery isn’t a small thing for people who live at the far eastern end of the island.
The process typically starts with a consultation, either in person or virtually, so that you’re ordering the right product before anything ships or gets delivered. That extra step might feel like more friction upfront, but it’s what prevents the common scenario of ordering the wrong product, having it not work, and writing off CBD entirely. If you’re in the Southold area and want to get started, you can reach us directly at (631) 305-7072 or by emailing brandon@danddcbd.com to schedule your appointment.
