NICK FISHENDEN
From Golf Enthusiast to CBD Advocate
Nick Fishenden, co-founder of On The Green, has had a journey marked by significant transitions and personal growth. Originally from the U.K., Nick moved to California in 2008 to pursue his passion for golf at the Golf Academy of America. There, he earned a degree in business and golf management, setting the stage for what he hoped would be a flourishing career in the sport.
However, life had other plans. A career-ending back condition, compounded by further injuries, forced Nick to reconsider his future and pivot from his dreams on the golf course. Determined to find a new path, he leveraged his business acumen and joined the world's largest CBD company, eventually rising to the position of International Senior Account Manager.
Nick's personal and professional experiences within the CBD industry have endowed him with a deep understanding of this rapidly growing field. His expertise in CBD and botanical ingredients has been instrumental in formulating a comprehensive line of highly effective CBD products. Today, Nick Fishenden is a leading advocate for the science and benefits of CBD, passionately promoting its advantages for health, wellness, sleep, and performance. His journey from the greens of California to the forefront of the CBD industry is a testament to resilience and the ability to adapt and thrive amidst life’s unexpected challenges.
