Potbox Launches Premium Cannabis Subscription Club To Deliver Ethically-Grown Medical Cannabis Direct From The Farm To Your Door
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) July 08, 2015 -- As the movement to legalize cannabis for medicinal and recreational use continues to build momentum, a new subscription-based service called Potbox launched today to deliver the highest-quality, most ethically-grown cannabis to registered patients on a monthly basis. Potbox is currently available to patients in the San Francisco Bay area, and is beta testing the service in select areas of Los Angeles. The company will announce further expansion plans in the near future.
Potbox takes all of the confusion, frustration and anxiety out of buying medicinal cannabis. Working closely with local small-batch farms, the company’s cannabis experts carefully select only the best strains exclusively for Potbox’s discerning customers. Each month, patients receive two flavorful, aromatic and – most importantly – ethically-produced strains of premium medical cannabis, curated to meet the patient’s desired experience and delivered by trusted employees in a well-appointed Potbox.
“Potbox provides a more sophisticated alternative to the various other ‘on-demand’ cannabis delivery services that simply aggregate and deliver whatever inventory is currently available at the local dispensaries,” said Austin Heap, co-founder and CEO of Potbox. “With dozens of varieties to choose from, patients can’t gauge which strain is right for them, what effects each will have, how fresh it is, or how it was grown. With Potbox, patients can skip the long dispensary lines, the confusion as to what to buy, any questions about freshness, the sketchy messengers or car-service drivers who knock on their door, and all the other hoops they must jump through in order to receive their medicine.”
Potbox co-founder Ian Buczkowski agrees. “Potbox does all the leg-work, and removes all of the guess-work, so that our customers can simply relax and enjoy a much higher-quality product and a much higher-quality experience.”
Inside Potbox
After registering at Potbox.com and uploading a copy of their California medical marijuana physician’s recommendation, patients can customize their Potbox based on their medical needs. Each month, Potbox will deliver one quarter-ounce each of two expertly curated premium strains presented in glass jars, and two freshly-rolled joints in wax-sealed glass tubes. Information on each strain is provided, including the type of cannabis, tasting notes, expected effects, and the farm from which it was grown and harvested. Each Potbox costs $149.99 per month. In the future, Potbox will explore various delivery options, including additional products, increased quantities and more frequent deliveries.
Fresh From The Farm, To Your Door
In order to provide a wide variety of strains to customize each customer’s experience, Potbox has currently partnered with three local cannabis farms that have pledged to grow only ethical cannabis: Island in the Sky Farm, Sunset Ridge Farm and Zayante Valley Farm. As the business grows, and expands to new cities, Potbox will add additional local farms to meet its customer’s needs.
Once each strain has been selected, harvested, lab-verified, processed and packaged, the company leverages Foggy Daze Delivery Service to deliver each Potbox to customers. Established in 2010, and led by Potbox Co-Founder Evrett Kramer, Foggy Daze is a leading not-for-profit California collective that grows and delivers ethical cannabis to qualified medical marijuana patients in San Francisco and Los Angeles. FoggyDaze’s employees personally deliver the patient’s Potbox, and use mobile technologies to keep in constant contact with the patient to ensure a smooth, successful and safe delivery.
The ‘Ethical Cannabis’ Movement
Because Potbox cares about its customers, the environment, and the future of the medical cannabis industry, it only partners with farmers have pledged to grow ethical cannabis. The company believes this focus on ethical cannabis truly sets Potbox apart from other cannabis start-ups. But what is ethical cannabis, and why is Potbox so passionate about it?
According to Kramer, a 15-year medical cannabis industry veteran who also owns Island in the Sky Farms, “Ethical cannabis is grown with the purest intention, with the well-being of the patient and the environment at heart. It's about carefully controlling all phases of the plant's life cycle and creating a sense of stewardship over the entire process. It's about respecting the rights and the livelihoods of the people who cultivate and harvest our cannabis. And it's about being 100% transparent in everything that we do so that our valued customers will never have to worry about where their medicine comes from, what it contains, how the plants were cared for, or how it gets from the field to their door each month.”
