The Sisters of The Valley and The Gift of God

The Sisters of the Valley are a group of self-ordained nuns whose order was founded in 2014 by 58-year-old Sister Kate, and headquartered in California’s Central Valley. The sisters are not like the monastic nuns, these nuns love weed.

It all started when Sister Kate moved from Wisconsin to California in 2009. She and her brother started a marijuana collective called Caregrowers but over time, she was drawn to create types of marijuana that could give users the same health benefits without smoking. After working with other women in the collective, Sister Kate found the need to create her order.

The Sisters believe cannabis is “truly God’s gift.” The products they create, however, won’t get you high. Each item manufactured by the Sisters is rich in the healing cannabinoids (CBD) of marijuana, their items do not contain THC.

Means, you won’t find special strains or edibles in the Sisters’ shop, instead, you will find a variety of cannabis-infused products designed to help you heal. They sell salves and tincturesm, all organic and free of pesticides. Products are tested in a lab and rigorous quality control standards are set for every item.

The Sisters are having a bumper crop. Since they started selling products in January 2015, their sales have increased exponentially. In 2016 alone, Sister Kate estimates that they did about $750,000 in sales. Sister Kate has plans to start a Canadian operation in the next few months. While they already sell online to Canadian customers, having a Canadian-based location would help diversify their interests and further spread the cannabis love.
