About the Company
Lowell Herb Co. has elevated the perception of cannabis consumption with its sophisticated packaging and best selling products. Based in California, Lowell Herb Co.`s ethos is reflected through its instantly recognizable bull logo that pays homage to the fight against cannabis prohibition. The Lowell Herb Co. story dates back to the spring of 1909, William “Bull” Lowell began growing what was called Indian Hemp on his farm on the central coast of California. Henry J. Finger took a dislike to Bull`s “marijuana being smoked by the wrong kinds of people”. Finger conspired to outlaw cannabis and later passed the 1913 Poison Act. Bull believed in a man`s right to smoke the dried plant and enjoy its benefits. When the stubborn Bull refused to stop growing his beloved plant, Finger shut down Bull`s farm and later threw him in jail. Today Lowell Farms, a community of family farms honor the great Bull Lowell`s tradition of growing cannabis naturally and with a deep love and respect for the plant. OUR PLEDGE 1. We grow our flowers with only ORGANIC fertilizer. 2. We never use synthetic pesticides 3. We pay our farmers a proper living wage 4. We use natural materials from seed to sale.
