I decided to make this brand, community, channel and now website because I believe cannabis and food have a direct connection with community and healthy lifestyle. I had a hard time finding a community I aligned with and also like to do things for myself and the world around me.
There will be lots to come but a little about who I am and the idea.
From a young age I have always loved food and fortunately came from a home that liked to cook. At around 6 I was introduced to the kitchen(food prep) and the garden and instantly fell in love. I felt like I could make anything I wanted with the flavours I knew, it felt limitless and I loved it. I was always experimenting and pushing my limits while trying to learn new things and expand my mind.
In the garden I was more of a mess then a help when I was a child but as I got older I started to see something beautiful yet so simple in the act of planting a seed/clone, watering it, tending to it and eventually harvesting it to enjoy. Once I grew up I started to notice these passions were helping me grow myself as a person. Not every meal was delicious or even good and sometimes my experiments didn't have nice results but I learned..The same thing happened in the garden sometimes a plant just wouldn't do anything or other times they grew so well and ended up dying but I kept at it and started to see that what happened didn't matter as much as what was going to happen. I would begin to grow from my failures and expand my mind to overcome them.
This was all before I discovered my love for cannabis..Once I discover cannabis it was a no brainer for me, food and gardening go together so well and would only be sweetened by cannabis being added in. From there on out it kept everything stuck together, I just kept learning and trying new things. I was still to young to understand the importance of community but was starting to meet the right people and see the right things for that to devolve and become something I find very important. That brings things to the time of making a brand and doing what I decided to do. I wanted to have a space to share ideas, educate & help each other, become friends and to hopefully share some of my passion or help you with yours.
Cannabis and food are community and community is life.
