Co-founders of the innovative hemp elixir brand Lumen, Kris Taylor and Yasir Hashim, believe that healthy soil creates the foundation for healthy food and healthy people as a result.

Having been best friends since middle school, Kris and Yasir have both always been passionate about discovering ways to make a difference in the world around them.
