If asked which joint captures my attention the most over all others, I would have to say the moment I discovered Space Coyote felt like the proverbial “coming home.” There are many pre-rolls on the market that I’ve tasted and written about, and all of them are worthy contenders for the best.

I’m a massive fan of Murano (Venetian) Glass. Fortunate to grow up in a home with many pieces of this richly textured and deeply colored glass, the memory light shines through my memories. It is as if each droplet of glass is lit from within. Luminescent and robust. When I discovered that someone was making tips for cannabis cigarettes made from snippings of real Murano glass, the authentic kind, not the cheap knock-offs, I had to know more. These artistic Murano Tips are a brilliant, yet tiny invention using one of my favorite materials, Venetian glass!

I love Parker Sullivan’s background. It was Charleston, SC that snagged my attention. Although our paths have not crossed, I lived in Charleston in the 80’s and spent Hurricane Hugo in the safe embrace of a circa 1800’s kitchen house on Charlotte Street. This is a place you don’t just forget.

5 Questions With Erika Lindeman Business Development Director: Sonoma Lab Works

LAB WORKS

The cannabis community in California is tightly knit, and every time I go out to Northern California, it seems I find myself connecting with more and more of the humble, yet talented people that make it so vibrant. I first toured Sonoma Lab Works as a guest of its original founder, Dennis Hunter of CannaCraft. The lab is thriving and has built an excellent reputation over the years for their strong work in product formulation and testing. Erika Lindeman is as dedicated as they come and is a well-known face in California. As the Business Development Director she is charged with the compliance piece of cannabis, but on a broader scale. How her work integrates into the community? I’m pretty sure she does many things, all of them to the best of her ability. And in cannabis, like in cooking you have to be able to boil water and clean the pots and pans at the same time. Just like working in a cannabis testing lab, correct me if I’m wrong. Thank you, WB

I’m a big fan of Chalice Farms, probably because I’ve visited some of their dispensaries while I was recently in Portland, Oregon. They do a really nice job with training their staff to be compassionate and kind. Great work by a company that really cares about their guests. For once I didn’t feel sold to, but guided by. You really have to experience this level of service yourself. At least I experienced a warm and friendly environment. Very refreshing indeed. Now, without further delay, may I introduce Jeff Yapp, the CEO of Golden Leaf Holdings.

CARE BY DESIGN

Santa Rosa, CA – 6/16/20 –Care By Design, a wholly-owned CannaCraft brand, announced today the launch of its Care By Design Hemp line. Formulated and manufactured by the same team of scientists and experts that created the brand’s top-selling signature ratio line for the California medical cannabis market, Care By Design Hemp is now sold online direct to consumers and retailers and ships nationwide. The popularity of Hemp CBD has been on the rise since the federal government legalized hemp in 2018. In a recent Project CBD survey, the cannabis researcher’s comprehensive survey found that of the 3,600 CBD users polled, 52% reported using hemp-derived CBD as opposed to cannabis-derived CBD. The latter being less accessible as it is only sold in states that have legalized cannabis.
