Our Mission
To provide a superior cannabis experience that elevates the mind, body and soul.
Our Vision
Using decades of experience and knowledge, along with careful selection of genetics and in house breeding, we are committed to creating new strains and ways to engage with the cannabis plant through a portfolio of cannabinoid infused products.
Our Story
The 3C Team collectively boasts decades of cannabis experience from growing in basements of houses in Woodland Hills, cultivating an original cut of OG in the late 90’s, and owning one of LA’s longest standing dispensaries which is now 3C Cannabis, Canoga Park. Our personal passions for the plant motivated each of us to establish professional careers in cannabis. And from that 3C Cannabis and 3C Cannabis Cannabis came to be.
The details of our history are shared below in a detailed timeline.
We proudly feature approximately thirty three strains of cannabis in our library and have multiple grow rooms constantly rotating through the genetics. Our strains and products can be found at our 3C Cannabis dispensaries in Canoga Park and Downtown LA, as well as multiple other licensed cannabis retail locations throughout the state.
Our speciality is small batch, indoor cultivation in grow rooms that are moderately sized allowing us to tailor nutrient, lighting, and environmental conditions to suit each strains specific needs. The result provides us with flowers that are dense in structure, rich in terpene profiles and boast potent cannabinoid percentages – the triple threat and ultimate entourage effect.

1994
Not to be deterred, Bryan continued to explore cannabis cultivation and genetics.He worked to perfect his cultivation skills in these early days using unknown strains from bag seeds, learning from his mistakes and diving deeper into what methods worked best. In 1994, he successfully harvested 12 Northern Lights plants grown in soil.
1996
Two years after his first successful harvest, Bryan moved to a house in Woodland Hills, CA. He took things to the next level and converted the basement into his first full on indoor grow room.

Bryan continues to expand his love and passion for cultivating cannabis over the years, perfecting his techniques and methods, growing in new spaces such as warehouses and larger houses. In this period of time, he starts to share his love and knowledge of the plant with friends and family and thus, without knowing or trying, 3C Farms was starting to form…
