Meadow (company)

Meadow is an app that allows medical marijuana patients to easily order marijuana from a partner marijuana dispensary and have it delivered. Media outlets have called Meadow the 'Uber for weed,' in reference to the ride-sharing app Uber.[1]

Meadow also has a service called CannabisMD that allows patients to order on-demand consultations with doctors who can prescribe them medical marijuana in their home. [2]

Meadow graduated from startup accelerator Y Combinator in their Winter 2015 batch.[3] The company was founded by David Hua, Rick Harrison, Harrison Lee, and Scott Garman, all of whom previously worked together at the startup Sincerely, that was acquired by Providence Commerce.[4][5]
