 CONNOR BABCOCK

I cannot roll a joint at all. This seemingly easy task is completely lost on me. I mangle the process, ripping the paper, spilling the contents on the floor. It’s a huge disappointment. I can’t even load a pre-rolled cone without tearing the paper. That’s where folks like Jonathan “Magar” Martinez comes in. Rolling cannabis cigarettes is his talent and his passion. I’ve seen his work. It’s world class. And my joints? Better forgotten. Enjoy reading about Johnny Magar. He’s very talented!

Uplift Maryland is a platform where it strives to increase diversity and inclusion within the emerging medical cannabis industry, ensuring that all communities, especially those of color, have an opportunity to participate in the economy of the future. CEO of Uplift Maryland, Kevin Ford, grew up in a medical family, and throughout studying Business and Marketing college, he took a keen interest in the medical markets in California and Colorado. After moving home to Prince George’s County, he watched the start of the medical cannabis industry in D.C., in hopes that he’d have an opportunity to mix his entrepreneurial spirit with cannabis in a legal, medical market in Maryland. Once the opportunity presented itself, Kevin saw a void in the market for a trusted source of information for navigating all segments of the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission. At this point, he created Uplift Maryland. His passion stems from wanting to take what the generation before him has created and elevate it to the next level. Kevin has been able to take something that was once illegal and incarcerated many Black men before him and turn it into a positive by providing an education of opportunity, especially to those who have been marginalized by oppressive and unjust drug policies.

I love the premise of the Daily High Club. That is to say there is nothing like it on the East Coast that is anything like what Harrison Baum has achieved from virtually nothing. Seven hundred dollars is what it took to start a company that has far exceeded everyone’s expectations. Mine included. A wonderful and enlightening surprise that made my day. Success in small ways. The iChing teaches this. Listen to your passion and follow it, as Harrison has done so well. Thank you Harrison for teaching me this lesson.

I’m the lucky man to have been able to sample the fine cannabis composites rolled by the ultra-high net worth quality, cannabis joint roller, CaliGreenGold. These tasty treats make me think of the first time that I rolled some Middle Eastern hashish into a joint comprised of the finest (available) flowers of the day. Every year after this first time that I made my own composite joint I’d travel out West, seeking a pre roll that really got me lit up! Enter CaliGreenGold and their adventures in composite cannabis-land. These young people really get it! Now without further adieu may I please share with you a very intriguing gentleman who dreams in flavor and quality.

After I visited the North Bay area of San Francisco last year and discovered the unique terroir that follows the sun, I wanted to know more. So I attended both the Emerald Cup and Hall of Flowers and discovered that the cannabis that I wanted to smoke was grown partially outside, under the sun with natural farming methods with a touch of protection in greenhouses- over indoor grown, under full artificial lights.
