Weed explores the beauty and bounty of cannabis, taking a journey into the heart of the joy, mindfulness, and fun derived from this very special plant.

Since cannabis has become available as a product in many parts of America, there have been significant advances in our understanding and appreciation of the botanical. Weed is a beautifully illustrated volume that steps in to help you with the buying and tasting tips you need to find the perfect puff.
Join Holland as she and other industry experts discuss the many tastes and smells of cannabis, from a fruity tropical tang to a rich, earthy flavor, and how you can use cannabis in unexpected ways, including in food, floral displays, cocktails, as a wellness practice, and much more. Along the way, you'll meet some of the farmers and producers blazing a trail in today's booming cannabis marketplace and delve into the science behind the high.
Learn about:
Weed-focused events, from full meals to blind cannabis tastings
Cannabis cocktails and wine and weed pairings
Unique ways to incorporate cannabis into food (beyond brownies!)
Sustainable farming practices both indoors and out
After you've gained all the knowledge, participate in fun activities like puff and paint nights and cannabis-infused yoga sessions, and explore the ways in which weed has gone luxe. Find inspiration to appreciate, protect, and preserve cannabis culture as you learn about how it is grown, its magnificent biodiversity, and the sheer pleasure of enjoying it.
