It’s 4:20 somewhere so join us for our [belated] 4th annual celebration of 420 of Black in the Garden!
We're exploring plant-related occupations in the cannabis industry and some benefits of consumption. First, our resident botanist, Derek Haynes calls out a deceptive poppy from Cali. 
Who would Colah B Tawkin rather smoke with? You may be surprised to learn during the second half of this ‘highly inspired’ ethnobotanical celebration.

It’s time for reflection on this much needed Spring mic check. Colah reflects on the challenges of winter and the importance of giving ourselves grace as we grow. We also discuss upcoming episodes, including a belated 420 special and a live recording from Michigan State University. Soil Cousins, stay tuned for a new range of episode subjects and opportunities to provide feedback! Issa Fantastic Voyage!
RIP Coolio💚

In light of the duality of the weather and the resulting confusion about when to plant, Colah B Tawkin takes on the topic of last frost dates. Colah breaks down the impact of climate change on planters and discusses three ways to calculate your last frost date in the style our Soil Cousins have come to enjoy. Happy planting y’all!
