Framingham's Bountiful Farms Unveils New Mural

FRAMINGHAM, MA — Bountiful Farms has unveiled a new public mural at its recently opened Framingham adult-use cannabis dispensary, created by Massachusetts artist Stephanie Maria Mesner and her team at Arteriors.
The piece transforms a formerly blank exterior wall along Route 9 into a vibrant work of art celebrating creativity, craftsmanship and community, officials said.
For Bountiful Farms, the mural is an extension of its commitment to quality, from award-winning flower and rosin to the design of its retail spaces and shopping experience.

We’ve transformed the side of our building into a stunning piece of art that captures attention and invites the community to discover what makes Bountiful Farms different.”

Mesner, who has run the Natick-based design studio Arteriors for nearly 40 years with her husband, saw the project as a chance to bring her typically private interior work into the public space.

Inspired by San Francisco murals and the warm sunset hues along the Mass Pike and Route 9, she created a serene, archetypal figure framed by flowing dandelions that guide the eye to the dispensary entrance.
“Public art should be for everyone,” said Mesner. “I wanted to create a mural with beautiful colors, smooth flow, and a universal face that reflects peacefulness, bliss, and connection for people from all backgrounds.”
