This podcast is my pursuit to bring all things cannabis into the mainstream. To break through the stigma and show everyone the myriad of ways cannabis can unlock their true potential that has been within them all along. Drawing from decades of restaurant experience, I am able to look through a culinary lens at the complexity and opportunities of the cannabis plant. We will explore THC and CBD and all the other 111 cannabinoids. You'll learn about your Endocannabinoid System (ECS), discover terpenes and the unlimited combination of synergistic effects they offer. Learn from heritage farmers how to grow regeneratively. Growing up in the Napa Valley opened my eyes to the craft of wine making and the true impact of terroir and natural farming practices. This level of craft is in its infancy in Cannabis. Lets change that together!
