Hi, we are the co-founders of Palmer Jane, Katharine Leonard and Holly Prohs.
We created Palmer Jane out of personal passion for sharing the benefits of cannabis with our friends, colleagues and beyond. We realized that the cannabis industry today is not only daunting, but also doesn’t know how to speak to the other ladies like us out there.
We had our own experiences with cannabis being a complete game changer in our lives, but it didn’t start out that way. We both experienced walking into dispensaries feeling a little misunderstood. Getting to the bottom of which product would actually work for us led to frustration and unnecessary experimentation. After plenty of research and a few dead ends, we finally found it, and it really is amazing! With cannabis we are able to live happier, healthier and just better lives. That was a message that we didn’t want to keep a secret!
That’s why we decided to venture out and create the first female focused cannabis marketplace. A place where the customer will not only be able to find the right product for them, but will also be able to learn about the products and the many benefits of the plant. We didn’t feel like shopping for cannabis had to be so difficult. Why couldn’t it be as comfortable as shopping for clothes?
On Palmer Jane you will find a cannabis shopping experience unlike any other. An experience built for women, by women. A place where you can easily find only the best products that the industry has to offer. Get ready to look great and feel even better!
Palmer Jane is our muse and inspiration for everything that we feel the modern woman embodies. A woman trying to take on the world! Working a full time job at a marketing firm, caring for her adorable daughter Janie, and spending quality time with her husband James. Not to mention all of the more mundane tasks that are required to run a household. She is a little bit of all of us. Fiery, creative, passionate, caring, and just simply a badass woman. She has unlocked the benefits of cannabis and is here for you to as well!
Katharine Leonard
Co-founder & CEO
I am a strategic leader focused on product innovation and growth. Before Palmer Jane, I ran product strategy in delivery logistics, working directly with dispensaries to establish delivery services within regulation. I managed an international team of developers, product designers, project and product managers to continue to innovate in the last-mile delivery space.
Given the quickly changing cannabis landscape, I love guiding dispensaries through the process of integrating delivery and logistics into their operations.
Holly Prohs
Co-founder & COO
I am a growth oriented operator. I love taking strategy head on and seeing improvement through to the finish line. After four years of experience leading the operations of an eCommerce SaaS company, I learned what it takes to operate successfully in today’s ever-changing eCommerce environment.
This fuels my passion for Palmer Jane and providing a one-of-a-kind eCommerce experience for the cannacurious woman.
