MFNY

Cannabis Grown by New Yorkers, for New Yorkers

When you walk into StarrCanna, the brands lining our shelves aren’t picked at random. Each one earns its place because it reflects the kind of quality and intention we want to share with our New Rochelle neighbors. MFNY is one of those brands, and it’s a name we’re genuinely proud to carry. If you’ve ever wondered what makes a cannabis brand truly local, MFNY is a great place to start the conversation.

MFNY exists on a simple but powerful idea: cannabis for New Yorkers, by New Yorkers. The brand celebrates the people who make up this state — folks from every generation, origin, and walk of life, from the buzz of the city to the open lushness of the land. As a retail dispensary and delivery service rooted in a diverse, working-class community just north of the Bronx, that mission resonates with us deeply. The customers who shop with us are a broad mix of younger adults and middle-aged professionals, and MFNY speaks to all of them.

The Seed-to-Shelf Story

What truly sets MFNY apart is their single-source approach. Everything they offer is grown, harvested, and processed at their own Hudson Valley farm, located about 60 miles north of New York City. This seed-to-shelf model means they control every variable in the process — from the genetics they plant to the moment a product is packaged. The result is consistency and quality you can count on, batch after batch.

Unlike many cultivators in New York who split their attention growing for outside labels, MFNY stays focused exclusively on their own brand. Their cannabis is never grown by anyone else. That commitment shows up in the products we stock for you at StarrCanna, and it’s one of the reasons we feel confident recommending MFNY to first-time visitors and seasoned enthusiasts alike. When a brand controls its own farm, processing, and extraction under one roof, you get a level of care that’s hard to replicate.

The People Behind the Brand

MFNY is built by a team of experienced operators who genuinely respect the plant. That depth of expertise is part of why we trust the brand. Here’s a look at a few of the people driving it forward:

• Michael Kandhorov, Co-Founder and Owner: Brings a background in real estate development and financial markets, now channeling that drive into agricultural innovation and assembling a top-tier team.
• Natalia Kaminskaya, Co-Founder and Head of Brand and Culture: Came from high-end hospitality and real estate, and now shapes the brand’s identity, partnerships, and retailer relationships.
• Ian Dyche, Head of Operations: A seasoned cultivator with more than 20 years of experience, overseeing the genetic library and quality control at the facility.
• Galen Connell, Head of Extraction: Over twelve years of experience and a specialist in compliant closed-loop extraction systems.

This is a team rooted in a deep reverence for cannabis and its potential to elevate everyday life. That same spirit of knowledgeable, approachable expertise is exactly what we aim to bring to every conversation at our counter.
