14 Sustainable Cannabis Brands You Need To Know For 4/20
Happy 4/20 baddies! In honor of this very chill holiday, we made a list of our fave small businesses and susty brands that make lighting up as cute as we are. These brands are on our list because they care about both plant and planet, mental health, access, and liberties, and they’re serious about personal style, expression, color, and vibe in their products.
If you want to make your toking time susty, remember to focus on flower first; buying flower and using glassware or ceramic reusable accessories (bowls, pipes, bongs) will eliminate all single-use materials from your ritual. When making your purchases, consider our curated recs so you can chill more and waste less!
