Fresh first
Harvested for peak potency and typically delivered in 1 to 3 days. Nothing dried, nothing processed.
The spirit of the Wild West in every bag
Cowboy Catnip is a small Colorado grower with one job: get fresh-cut catnip from our plants in Golden to cats across the Denver metro while it is still fresh.
Grown in the foothills of Golden, Colorado
Our catnip grows in Golden, where the plains meet the Rocky Mountains. Catnip (Nepeta cataria) is a hardy member of the mint family, and it thrives in Colorado's sunny days and cool nights.
We harvest whole sprigs, leaves and flower heads together, and get them moving the same way a farmer's market herb would: cut, bagged, and out the door.
Why we do not dry it
Most catnip is sold dried. Drying is convenient for shelf life, but the volatile oils that make catnip interesting to cats fade with heat, light, and time. We would rather deliver fresh-cut sprigs a few days after harvest than a bag of flakes that was harvested a season ago.
That is also why we only deliver locally. Fresh catnip does not belong in a warehouse. It belongs in your fridge, and then on your living room floor.
What we stand for
Local by design
We deliver only within the Denver metro so every bag arrives green and fragrant.
Low waste
Our resealable bags are certified commercially compostable, so where commercial composting is available the packaging can go out with food scraps.
