I would be lying if I said I wasn’t oozing with excitement for the first episode of Weed, Wine and Wheat Thins! Firstly, Toni, the show’s creator, is so sweet! I had only seen a teaser clip on the show’s Instagram account so I sent her an email at the last minute wanting to know more about the show–and she instantly sent back this beautiful email that has me like… I need to get ready for the first episode!! Toni’s inspiration behind the show is to be able to host open and honest conversations with the promise of receptivity and understanding. Every week, Toni will host a new guest, where they choose to partake in either weed, wine or wheat thins, and pick from a random mix of topics ranging from dating apps to privilege dynamics! Mark your calendars to chill out and enjoy each new episode! Find it on the website or on YouTube.

Because it is our belief that the “whole plant” delivers the best experience, we utilize only solvent-free extract systems so as to preserve the entire cannabinoid profile in our infused products.
