Our Annual Feminist Screed/Love Letter to the Lady Bros in Honour of International Women’s Day
Nothing makes me prouder than working with this team to create a work life that is, as much as we can make it, fair, comfy, and rewarding. A core piece of me and Jenna’s feminist project will always be not making a group of women’s lives worse in all the ways a bad workplace can.
Herbals for Menstruators
I believe that we need to support menstruators with a widened margin for care and love, and provide each other with the space to support our bodies in ways that feel right. A connection with the gifts of plants has been just one way that I have been able to experience this, but we can continually inspire new ways for menstruators to access care and create their own. A care that feels safe, understood, and even respected. Choosing to care for yourself during cycle highs and lows is a pathway towards global healing.
And from this, ripples of care flow from menstruators to our community as a whole.

Let’s Chat Topicals
We love to draw on the incredible depth of expertise and experience our budtenders came to us with.

Exploring CBD
Cannabis plants are made up of multiple compounds that when broken down and consumed interact within our body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS). Second to THC, CBD is the most prevalent cannabinoid within cannabis plants (Jikomes., 2021). CBD and THC alike, are derived from the plant, therefore they’re called phytocannabinoids (Jikomes., 2021). Our body generates its own naturally occurring cannabinoids called endocannabinoids (Jikomes., 2021).
