by Veronica Castillo It’s important for me to thank Herbage Magazine for allowing me the space to share this west coast wild fires series.

It’s the brown sugar. I walked back into the dispensary and shouted, “it’s the brown sugar.” There is a sensation that one receives from great things that one can only describe as “there’s some fun shit going on here.” I got that when I bit into and slowly chewed this scrumptious little nugget of happiness….

by Veronica Castillo I started consuming Cannabis on a regular basis, in 2015. At the time, Cannabis wasn’t legal in any way in Ohio. All of my purchases and consumption were compliments of the people that risked their freedom to get me my meds. I always had quality meds at what I felt…
by Brittiany Ralls Cannabis is an industry that is represented in many ways.

by Kathleen Clark What is top shelf flower? The answer probably depends on who you’re asking.

~ James Bridges There it was. Right there on the bicycle rider. Flashes of jarred memories scream past. His skin was burnt.
