We’re continuing our Mendo summer farm tour this week at Radicle Herbs in Covelo, CA. I had the pleasure of walking and talking with the farmers as they tended their garden on a market day. We talk chop and drop crops and farming tips that even the backyard gardener will appreciate. We take a peek at the business of farming food versus farming cannabis. The importance of community supported agriculture and the drawbacks of a centralized cannabis system and the corporatization of our lives. Lots of good stuff in these show notes!

Potcast 228: THCV and Plant Spirit

We're elevating the cannabis conversation to include the plant spirit of cultivation with Emerald Spirit Botanicals. We discuss their terroir 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 believe this potcast will inspire you to get outside and consciously experience nature.

Potcast 105: Voices of Harvest

Farmers face an expansive list of chores and challenges during the final weeks of harvest. So I set out to capture stories of harvesting the flower that will eventually become the medicine that you and I buy. Over the next several weeks I’m sharing voices of harvest with you to give a better understanding of what it means to be a cannabis farmer. Understanding brings appreciation, and ultimately I hope your reverence for craft cannabis will grow as big and beautiful as the colas I saw in Humboldt this week.
