California-based premium cannabis cultivator and brand house founded in 2015. Operates as a vertically-integrated cultivator with a focus on effects-based cannabis products and luxury positioning. Pioneered effects-based naming convention (replacing strain names), commercial-scale solar cultivation, and launched Justice Joints, a not-for-profit cannabis brand donating 100% of profits to cannabis social justice causes.
