Our Associates are the engine of our store - they handle customer transactions by knowing our menu very deeply, applying their cannabis knowledge from their personal experience as cannabis connoisseurs, and they have excellent people skills because they genuinely care. But in addition to handling sales, our Associates also help us manage inventory, jump in on marketing and other initiatives, and work closely with us every single day on any number of new projects and problems.

As a micro cannabis business in New Jersey we are limited to 10 employees total. With such a small team we expect our Associates to play a BIG role in helping us scale our business, our strategy, our brand, our community initiatives, and much more.
