This week we’re featuring a new edibles producer, can’t share their name, but we’ve been helping them get dialed in. These lovely beauties range between 10mg and 40mg in THC, something for everyone here. Gummies are old news yea? Well these ones are made with real fruit and smell like piña coladas 🧉😛.
