Who is Coronel Buendia?

Coronel Buendía draws inspiration from One Hundred Years of Solitude by Colombian Nobel laureate Gabriel García Márquez. Set in 19th-century Colombia, the novel follows the Buendía family through civil unrest, love, illness, and healing—where plant-based medicines cure a mysterious insomnia plague.

Aureliano Buendía, the family’s visionary second son, later known as the Coronel, embodies foresight, resilience, and a deep connection to nature. His spirit shapes our medical cannabis brand—one rooted in holistic wellness, tradition, and the transformative power of sun grown remedies.

Like the character, Coronel Buendía symbolizes healing, heritage, and a reimagined path to well-being—merging Colombian culture with natural innovation.
