They call him Howie Miller, one-half of Two Buds Dispensary in the Bronx. His story is a raw reminder that the same streets that can take everything away can also teach you the discipline to rebuild.
Growing up in the South Bronx with Jamaican parents, Howie saw both sides of life. His father taught him trades, hard work, and structure — while his stepdad introduced him to hustling weed and the fast money of the streets. By the time most kids were thinking about school or sports, Howie was already moving product, robbing, and doing whatever it took to survive. That path eventually caught up with him, leading to multiple arrests and prison time for drug trafficking.
Prison, however, wasn’t the end. It became the turning point. Howie used his time to reflect, regroup, and rebuild. After years of losing and bouncing back through the hustle and the construction business, he came home determined to flip the script. When New York opened the doors to legal cannabis, he was ready. No loans. No handouts. Just his own funds, his construction know-how, and decades of lived experience.
Today, Howie Miller stands as living proof that it’s possible to turn struggle into success. From nickel bags in the Bronx to owning Two Buds Dispensary in the legal cannabis industry, he’s rewriting his story and showing the next generation that discipline, ownership, and vision can change everything.
This episode of Dog in the Yard dives into Howie’s life — the hustle, the prison bids, the lessons, and the grind that made him the man he is today. #DogInTheYard #HowieMiller #TwoBudsDispensary #BronxStories #Redemption #FromPrisonToPurpose #CannabisBusiness #SecondChances
