Happy Memorial Day Folks! Before Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, we wanted to release a bonus episode on the topic of Mental Health Awareness. Keep the conversation going with #BreakTheStigma. Be a Friendly Folk to your loved ones and check on them, make sure they're good. And of course, you know we love cannabis over here, but remember that it is NOT an acceptable substitute for proper resources such as therapy. We've listed a few of our favorites below for you to check out if you need support. **Trigger Warning** Stay Friendly Folks.
