Happy Munkey Talk: Nico Marley, Founder of
LION X Wellness Greetings Happy Munkey Fam, This month we caught up with former Redskin & grandson of cannabis legend Bob Marley, Nico Marley about his CBD company Lion X Wellness! It is always inspiring connecting with amazing people in the industry with a deep and true love for the cannabis plant! We are honored and excited to share some of our conversation and hope you enjoy! Q: How’s it going for you during this quarantine? A: Quarantine is cool the first month, first few weeks, then you know you kinda get into a rhythm of the living room and then the kitchen. It might get a little old but you know it’s cool though, you know we’re blessed and everybody is healthy so no real complaints. Q: What are you smoking on? A: I got my little brother here, he smokes down the place. I don’t burn too much but you know if I’m burning, I’m burning with him. You know I got the Sherbinski’s, that’s my man... we live the down the street from him so we head down there every once in a while. Q:What is it about Lion X Wellness that’s makes it special? A: All our stuff is organic, we make sure everything is certified. The farm we work with, it was the first licensed to grow hemp. Even with my family everything was organically certified, like the farms in Jamaica. We make sure there are fair wages, that’s something that we make sure we do, we make sure we make the best product we can find, and making sure that I wouldn’t give anything to somebody that I wouldn’t take for myself. If it’s anything I’m taking, I’m making sure it’s organic. I’m making sure that it passes all third party tests, and I’m making sure that it’s something that I feel confident enough to give to somebody because I’m taking it. 16
