Just like that, another year is almost past and the holiday season is upon us again. It’s time for ugly sweater parties, decking the halls, and finding the perfect gifts for your loved ones. And is there anything better than giving the gift of cannabis? Ummm, HELL YEAH there is! It’s shopping for those gifts… locally.
Here are my favorite Florida cannabis companies that have something for everyone on your nice list (and maybe even your naughty list too).
1. For the Reader – Cannacurious Magazine
Got a bookworm on your holiday shopping list? Cannacurious Magazine is the perfect gift for those wanting to really understand the cannabis industry. Cannacurious Magazine is the Cosmo of Cannabis, written from a female-driven perspective, and covers everything–food, fashion, health, beauty… you name it!
Why Should You Support This Company?
We all know one of the best ways to beat the stigma around cannabis is to keep talking about it. The badass ladies over at Cannacurious are doing just that–normalizing conversations around cannabis every single day.
On top of that, the company is female-founded and designed for women. Giving their magazine as a gift is an awesome way to support women-owned businesses!
2. For the Eater – TKSweets
TKSweets was founded by Teri (hence the T in TKSweets). With the support of her husband and family, Teri creates delicious cannabis-infused treats that are both organic and vegan. As a baker myself, I’m sure these goodies are a surefire way to satisfy the foodie on your list.
Why Should You Support This Company?
TKSweets is a small, local business that’s owned by a medical marijuana patient. Teri has a passion for quality and she uses great organic and vegan ingredients. Outside of the kitchen she also is active in local and state policy to truly free the plant for all people.
3. For the Thinker – CannablissJo Consulting
Josie Matos is a cannabis consultant and coach. She’s a medical marijuana advocate who offers office training and events. On top of that, she advocates for mental health awareness–which in these wild and hectic times is so important, am I right?
If you’ve got a deep thinker on your list this holiday season, a thought-provoking consultation with CannablissJo could be the perfect gift.
Why Should You Support This Company?
This afro-Latina-owned business is grounded in holistic remedies. Josie believes that root healing happens with cannabis. Purchasing from this woman-owned Florida cannabis company is a fantastic way for you to show support for small local businesses.
4. For the Toker – Your CBD Store
Although this company is a franchise, they made the list because Your CBD Store is a powerhouse in the arena of high-quality CBD and combo Delta-8/CBD products. The cannabis connoisseur on your list will be thrilled by this company’s expansive catalog.
Why Should You Support This Company?
Your CBD Store produces high-quality and lab-tested CBD that you can trust. Getting your hands on top-notch stuff like this can be a life-changer.
Plus, each branch of this company is independently owned, so you’re still supporting a small business owner! My Lake Worth store owner is Lucy and she is not only an inspiration but a pillar within the community.
5. For the Cannabis Fashionista – Bud Babes and Her(b)
Bud Babe and Her(b) are both female-owned Florida cannabis companies that focus on fashion and lifestyle. I couldn’t decide which was badass-ier, so I picked them both!
If you’ve got a lady on your holiday shopping list who loves making a statement with her wardrobe, a gift from either of these awesome brands will be perfect.
Why Should You Support These Companies?
Sharing your affinity for cannabis can translate to fashion (that looks cool). Gone are the days of stoner wear being limited to just tie-dye and crocheted beanies. These two women show us just how elevated cannabis fashion can be.
Shop Local!
It’s so important to support small businesses, especially within the cannabis space since we know the hurdles these companies face daily. Here, at The Green Baker, I’m all about advocating for cannabis and spreading information to beat back the stigma around it. So, next time you’re looking for some cool ass gifts, check out my fellow greenies first!
