The Problem
Current Cannabis Content Sucks
The current media landscape is wide open with existing companies only focusing on cannabis news or “stoner” related content. Nobody is speaking to the much larger audience of responsible cannabis users.
What is Green Flower Media?
Green Flower Media produces top quality cannabis content to educate, entertain, and engage the 180,000,000+ audience of cannabis users around the world.
The content we produce is beautiful, highly engaging, and simply better than anything else out there.
As we build this massive global following of diverse cannabis users, we’ll develop the revenue channels and brand in a multitude of exciting and profitable ways.
We’re Building The Largest Audience Of Responsible
Cannabis Users In The World.
