Material Handler

Lazarus Naturals • Portland, OR

13d • Onsite

About The Position

Etz Hayim owns and operates the brands Cycling Frog and Lazarus Naturals, as well as a
sprawling operation that spans from farming over 300 acres of hemp, extraction, chemical
processing, packaging and warehousing to support both brands and private label customers.
Lazarus Naturals was founded in 2016 to provide safe and accessible CBD products for
everyone who would benefit from them, regardless of their financial situation and ability to pay,
which is why we provide a 60% Assistance Program to veterans and people with disabilities or
low-incomes. In order to maintain an affordable price point and our commitment to accessibility
for all, we have built a vertically integrated business model, which allows us to walk our talk of
developing quality, affordable products - from product inception, development, seed, farming,
extraction, finished production formulation and packaging, and distribution.

Cycling Frog is normalizing the consumption of casual use THC products. We are on a mission
to make THC convenient, affordable, and fun by making a sessionable THC beverage the same
price as a beer or soda. We want to change the way THC is consumed and viewed by our
society by focusing on lower potency, ready to drink beverages that can easily fit into anyone’s
lifestyle. Under the Federal Farm Bill it is legal to sell these low potency THC products across all
50 states via the internet, and anywhere you can grab a beer.

This role will be based in Portland.
