WHO WE ARE
We believe in the power of cannabis to cultivate health and happiness and to help people lead healthier, richer lives in our communities. We’ve seen how cannabis has helped our own families and friends fight an illness, manage anxiety, and bring new types of creativity into their lives. It’s the reason we founded Solful as a different kind of cannabis retail experience. We’re on a mission to not only educate our guests but to learn from them as well. We want to dispel old stereotypes about cannabis and replace them with objective information and learned understanding about how cannabis can improve lives. We want to lead a movement that brings cannabis into the mainstream conversation about the health of our bodies, spirits, and our ever-evolving culture. We’ve started in Northern California and have ambitions to influence conversations and experiences around cannabis nationally.
