What this record means
The record shows that “HAPPY GRASS” is a live, registered mark on the Principal Register, owned by Piepkorn Enterprises, Inc., a corporation organized in North Dakota. The mark protects clothing items such as hats, caps, visors, jackets, shirts, T‑shirts, sweatshirts, and polo shirts, with first use in commerce on June 1 2003. A similar name used on those same types of apparel would raise the closest record‑based concern. The registration does not give control over every use of the words “happy” or “grass” in unrelated contexts. The prosecution history indicates the mark was examined, published for opposition, and ultimately granted without a Supplemental Register sequence. The latest maintenance event was the renewal of the registration on July 8 2024. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk lies mainly in the apparel classes listed, and the mark’s active status suggests a meaningful concern in that area.
