On a hike, Gabe Kennedy and Hudson Gaines-ross discovered a common life story -- both had traditional surgery after spinal injuries. As usual, both men were taking traditional medicine, which left them feeling alienated, irritable and physically ill. Disillusioned, they abandoned traditional western medicine and found healing and integrity on the road to plant-based healing, aided by marijuana and the power of eastern and western herbs. Amazed and inspired by the brilliance of nature, the two men created Plant People. Plant People is a philosophy. In addition to high-quality and innovative products, the company exists to allow people to make choices about healing the body and mind, and to make more positive choices.
