Ethan Styles has a degree in mechanical engineering, is a third generation Grand Master grower of legacy cannabis, from the heart of the emerald triangle, Humboldt/Mendocino Counties, California. He is the founder and CEO of Long Valley Farms LLC, with decades of Cannabis cultivation behind him. Ethan’s grandfather, a biologist and a botanist, started cannabis research in 1955 after serving his country in the Marine Corps. He fought in WW2 and Korea and was awarded numerous medals including for his extremely rare act of bravery by shielding a grenade explosion to save his fellow men. Cannabis gave his grandfather relief from his severe injuries including PTSD. Ethan absorbed that multi-generational knowledge, expended it further over his long and successful Cannabis industry experience and legacy cultivation of premium Cannabis strains. This is part of Pharmagreen’s brand building where we start with the best, tissue cultured starter plantlets, cultivate organically with the best IoT technologies and utilize organic proprietary press technology to develop one-of-a-kind all-inclusive Cannabinoids therapeutic Cannabis and Hemp formulations with “entourage effect”.

“With our location right on the Humboldt/Mendocino line, we are in the epicenter of California cannabis. Being a third generation Grand Master cultivator and connoisseur, we have the history and the knowledge to be a top shelf global brand. Originally California cannabis accounted for 33.33% of the world’s cannabis but with the evolving market and legalization California has lost parts of that market share. By becoming part of the Pharmagreen family we are strategically poised to reclaim some of those markets and become a household name globally. With our broad range of products and processes and Pharmagreen international relationships and marketing, we see a match made in heaven in god’s country! This merger is way more than a business deal; this is a cementing of three generations’ place in history,” stated Ethan Styles, CEO of Long Valley Farms.

Additional comments from Ethan: “In the uncertainty of the emerging cannabis markets we are excited to join the Pharmagreen team to further our legacy in California cannabis and to continue producing high quality premium cannabis products for the future global market we see coming very soon!”

“I am very pleased and excited to be working with Ethan Styles as he continues his role as the CEO of Long Valley Farms now and post-acquisition. Ethan, a third generation Grand Master grower, brings a wealth of knowledge in Cannabis cultivation, zero cost organic fertilizer formulations as well as proprietary non-solvent based Cannabis processing technologies. He will also provide input to Pharmagreen to build its brand of Cannabis and CBD products that are organic, full spectrum and based on the ‘Entourage effect’,” concluded Mr. Wojcik.
