We believe outdoor adventuring is more pleasurable with cannabis, but getting too high could make you the main character in a cautionary tale.
“Indica or Sativa?” This question about cannabis has dominated weed conversation for quite some time. People often use these plant references when discussing the type of experience desired from your flower.

Why do music and cannabis work so well together? For starters, weed brings you into the moment, so you’re completely present with the music. Secondly, marijuana provides you with the perceived expansion of time so when you’re listening to music you can really get lost in it which can be a meditative experience.
You know a bit about weed, right? Yet, someone will drop some cannabis terms now and then, and you’re not sure what they mean.

We’re here to help you be in “the know”.
