Marley Naturals, the official natural skincare line created by the Bob Marley cannabis brand, has launched in Oregon.

Marley Naturals premium cannabis flower, pre-rolls and oils, lifestyle accessories, and body care products including moisturizers made from sun-grown cannabis and hemp ingredients are now available at dispensaries in the Portland and Eugene areas.

"We are fortunate to be living during a promising time of positive change, especially with regard to cannabis and how people understand it. My father would be so happy to see so many people appreciating the natural, healing power of the herb,” said Cedella Marley, Bob’s daughter.

In addition to launching the product line at dispensaries and select retailers, Marley Naturals has created the Rise Up social impact initiative. The first Rise Up Oregon moment will be a partnership with the Minority Cannabis Business Association to create Rise Up Expungement Day.

Rise Up Expungement Day will offer people convicted of non-violent marijuana offenses the legal help and resources to file a motion to help set aside their criminal convictions if they are eligible for expungement.

The Marley Naturals brand launched this year in LA in February on what would have been Bob Marley's 71st birthday. It plans to launch in Washington by the end of this year for a complete west coast presence by the end of 2016.
