Potcast 228: THCV and Plant Spirit
Emerald Spirit Botanicals Farm Tour
I spent the first week of summer visiting farms in Mendocino County. And I’m so excited to share today’s potcast. I always love sharing with you the voices of sun grown cannabis farmers. They do such an amazing job of connecting the dots between art and science. And today’s guests elevate the cannabis conversation to include the plant spirit of cultivation.
Emerald Spirit Botanicals is a small family farm located in the mountains of Mendocino County just Northwest of Willits, California. They cultivate a variety of CCOF Certified Organic vegetables for their community as well as Sun and Earth Certified Cannabis. Emerald Spirit Botanicals’ mission is to support the cannabis plant by welcoming in the new medicines needed for humanity at this time. Using a spiritual scientific approach to gardening and plant care, they carefully breed cannabis varietals aimed at balancing cannabinoid ratios of CBD, THC, THCV, and more. And as a family, they collaborate to create a healthy and balanced ecosystem for their cannabis plants to produce this new medicine to support humanity in finding balance in our lives and relations with others.
Yes, please and thank you!
We discuss the terroir they grow in and how they’ve built a deep connection working with the land as a family. We explore conscious creation, breeding work with a focus on minor cannabinoids, and the different lineages they’re developing.
And if you’re new to the benefits of THCV, we do a deep dive on that minor cannabinoid and the gifts it has to offer.
I hope you’ll slow down with me to enjoy this conversation with Katie Jeane and Joseph about consciously experiencing all of the benefits nature has to offer. Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em and settle in. It’s time to get casually baked.
