Mojave Richmond
Co-Founder

Mojave Richmond has explored the cannabis realm since his early days in California. In the early 1990s Mojave settled in the Netherlands, became involved in their newly emerging cannabis industry, and began breeding what would become award winning cannabis varieties. Throughout his many years in the Netherlands Mojave carried out extensive research on various cultivation techniques and plant breeding.

As laws began to relax in the US, Mojave moved back to California and presently works internationally focusing company visions, developing production strategies and designing cultivation facilities. Mojave continues to breed and develop critically acclaimed cultivars offering specific therapeutic attributes without compromising agronomic viability. Mojave’s visions for the future, combined with his valuable experience, present unique perspectives for the cannabis business sector.
