Make no mistake, Garcia Hand Picked is not linked to Jerry Garcia in name alone. His family have been integral to the brand from day one and waited for years for the right partner to come along. One of Jerry’s daughters, Trixie Garcia, talked to Weedmaps in December 2020 about the birth of the brand: “We've been thinking about the brand for eight years in earnest…I wanted to wait until we found the right partner who was into the nuances of the culture.” They partnered with Holistic Industries, a multi-state cannabis operator in 9 states plus Washington, DC. Holistic and the Garcia family worked closely to ensure the process, and the products, are intentional and “a true expression of Jerry's family and legacy.”
Trixie and her sisters are key decision-makers in everything from growers and strains to packaging and merch. As Trixie told the fans in a letter on the website: Jerry was a musician, an artist, a legend, and for sure, someone who opted for fun in his lifetime! That is our hope for you with this cannabis. Take a moment to reconnect with everything that is beautiful, right, and good! Above all else, don't forget to have fun!
