Merry Jane is a cannabis-focused digital media platform launched in 2015 by 📝Snoop Dogg and media entrepreneur Ted Chung. It publishes editorial coverage of cannabis culture, business, and politics, produces original video series, and maintains consumer-facing databases of dispensaries and strains.
The platform arrived as legalization was advancing state by state and mainstream outlets still treated cannabis as a novelty beat, positioning Merry Jane as a lifestyle publication for an industry that did not yet have one — with its co-founder's cultural authority serving as the distribution advantage. It is backed by 📝Casa Verde Capital, the cannabis venture firm Snoop Dogg co-founded, which places it inside a portfolio otherwise weighted toward operational infrastructure such as the delivery service 📝Ease. In 2019 the company spun off Gram By Gram, a cannabis-focused creative agency led by a former Vice executive, extending the business from publishing into brand services.
