This initiative allows us to financially support local Mendocino farmers while helping the growth of a unique flower brand.

This Agreement is one of a number of similar opportunities we've been exploring – we look forward to partnering with more passionate local California businesses to help bring their industry leading offerings to the world."
Jamie Warm, CEO of Henry's Original added, "We have been impressed with Origin House's bespoke approach to supporting our business. Our cannabis comes from family-run farms in Mendocino County, renowned for terroir that produces the finest cultivation conditions. We've grown our business from scratch, handling everything in house. And while we will continue to do that, this partnership with Origin House has offered us opportunities to scale-up and work symbiotically with other businesses in the industry."
