Jenny Kush: Great Fuckin’ Strain, Better Fuckin’ Human
By Jackie Fuckin’ Buckets
That’s right, folx. The undeniable sativa-leaning queen of the hybrids is named after a beast of a real-life weed legend: Jenny “Kush” Monson.
Jenny was an outspoken free spirit who was a founding member of Colorado Moms for Marijuana and an organizer with her local NORML (National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) chapter. She became a familiar face at rallies and an integral member of the movement to remove stigma around weed.
Clutch your pearls, America!
She also used her platform to spread sex positivity and a pro-cannabis lifestyle on the radio, which, for you 21-30 year olds, is this old-timey broadcast kind of like a live podcast. So for a woman… nay, a MOTHER?! To have the AUDACITY to live so unapologetically that you talk freely about SEX and WEED on the RADIO for ANYONE to hear?!?! Iconic.
Wait, what’s with all the past tense…
Jenny Monson’s life was tragically cut short in 2014 when a drunk driver struck her car. She was only 34 years young, leaving behind a husband and four small children.
Forever known as “the girl who gets shit done,” she embodied everything and more the cannabis industry needed at the time, and frankly, still does. Enter:
Edie. Fuckin. Moore.
Did NORML sound familiar? Sway’s very own Edie Moore is the co-founder and first Executive Director of the Chicago chapter. A fellow girl who gets shit done, Edie’s bad-assary has not only propelled the conversation around cannabis reform but also paved the way for a more equitable and inclusive cannabis industry. Edie’s legacy spans spearheading initiatives to challenge outdated legislation to opening a new SWAY location in South Shore, where a predominantly black neighborhood suffers from existing in a weed desert.
Edie is at the forefront of normalizing cannabis in Illinois, as Jenny was in Colorado, and so can you.
Sweet, Caring, Funky: Jenny's Strain lives on
While her time may have been cut short, her mission lives on through the strain that celebrates her legacy and was cultivated with her personality in mind. “Jenny Kush” balances a euphoric yet calm mind with a relaxed yet motivated body, making it the ideal hybrid with a sativa lean. Think sweet, fruity, and the right amount of funky, this strain is a safe bet for self-care and social circles.
Here’s to all the girls that get shit done…
Even if it’s just getting out of bed in 2026, that’s something to celebrate. And the simple fact that you can purchase legally and enjoy safely is an act of rebellion brought to you by women like Jenny and Edie. So light up this Women’s History Month and every month for the unapologetic girl-boss stoners in your life.
