On Indigenous Peoples’ Day (and all days), we acknowledge, with respect, that we are on the ancestral lands of the Cheyenne, Ute, Arapaho and other native peoples. We offer this important education and serene respect in the form of a painting, Un Abrazo, to honor and give thanks to the original Indigenous stewards of this land—and their relatives, who continue to care for and defend all life that lives upon it. We thank you for taking a moment to acknowledge those who came before you, both here in the Rocky Mountain West and also where you reside. Un Abrazo is part of the broader Art Biome, a juried showcase exhibited at the Grasslands office. Read below for more information on Un Abrazo and its function as a land acknowledgment. #IndigenousPeoplesDay https://lnkd.in/gH-RHg7e

Big ups to our friends at Cannatrol for the coverage of post-harvest processing science in Marijuana Moment! "There are plenty of legacy cultivators growing good flower, but the key is to educate the community about the true science behind the cannabis post-harvest process,” explained Cannatrol CTO and co-founder David Sandelman.

We are so stoked for the great insights Lisa Buffo, Laurie Parfitt and Jill Monus offered on the Brand-Building and Go-To-Market Strategies in the Cannabis Industry panel moderated by Grasslands CMO Jesse Burns at Ohio Cannabis Health & Business Summit this weekend.
