Lastly, have you ever wondered about all of the wonderful and amazing ways to infuse our beloved MaryJane into your daily routine? Inspired by the philosophy of Hippocrates, ancient Greek founder of western medicine, who said, “Let food be thy medicine and let medicine be thy food,” cannabis chef Dee Russell is cooking up a prescription for good health.
