Overview
King City Gardens grows and processes medical and adult-use cannabis in Ohio, operating a 25,000-square-foot cultivation facility. It handles growing, harvesting, and hand-trimming in-house to produce flower, pre-rolls, vapes, and solventless concentrates like Live Rosin. It is veteran-owned and vertically integrated with its own The Garden dispensaries and a statewide distribution network, including an exclusive agreement to manufacture and distribute Jeeter pre-rolls, focusing on small-batch, hands-on cultivation to ensure consistent quality. Its goal is to deliver high-quality, consistent cannabis products, expand direct-to-consumer and partner sales, and create jobs within Ohio's cannabis industry.
