Warren Bobrow=WB: Why cannabis? What serves as your inspiration for your brand?
George Ragan: As a passionate consumer of this product, I am extremely interested in its production. I started writing music the same way. I would listen to it constantly and I began to wonder how to make music of my own. It was the same with cannabis.

We are living in stressful times, that much is clear. COVID-19 has our nation on lockdown and businesses and individuals alike are struggling with the ramifications of vast shortages and shuttered doors. Cannabis dispensaries, however, have been deemed an essential service and are in high demand – maybe even as much as Charmin and Purell.

A month or so ago I received a brand-new Klip grinder. Then it languished in my shelf of to be looked at items for a bit longer. Those well-chosen products that I’m considering for a possible reviews and I had almost forgotten about the one that has truly changed my smoking experience.
For the better!

Warren Bobrow=WB: Why cannabis? What was your (both) of your path to the plant?
Chelsea and Dustin Johnson=DJ and CJ: Our mother shattered her knee cap in the early 2000s and was prescribed increasing amounts of opiates for over 10 years. When the law passed here in Arizona we got her interested in cannabis as an alternative treatment, and she was able to get off all of the narcotics in just under 9 months as a result. It truly saved her life, and inspired us to do our part to help bring responsible cannabis to the mainstream consumer. We opened a retail dispensary & cultivation facility here in Arizona, and HUXTON was launched out of those operations.
It seems like a lifetime agowhen I visited Portland, Oregon for the opening of the pretty darned amazing, Oregrown flagship dispensary. I gathered up some samples for later and that later is right now. Like they used to write about drinking that bottle of wine tonight because there is no time like the present.
