Designed by Shepard Fairey's Studio Number One, the “Trust The Earth” initiative is Charlotte's Web's brilliant effort to spark awareness and democratize access to hemp-derived products for those seeking wellness and relief.  

Due to the lack of federal regulations, there are still some states where hemp-derived CBD products are not sold in retail stores. Charlotte's Web is working hard to change that fact. The 'Trust The Earth' campaign can spark conversations and provide a way for citizens to add their voices to the fight. Hemp advocates can learn ways they can support hemp access for all by visiting www.trusttheearth.com.

First appearing as a large street-art style mural in Brooklyn in October 2019,  Studio Number One's original art is exhibited from the ground up, literally, as field art on a mammoth scale of 76-acres in Kansas.

To achieve this latest feat, the field art first had to be 'grown' and then mown on 3,049, 200 square feet of farmland, the equivalent of 57 football fields, according to the press release. The installation required one solo farmer mowing for one week using a GPS to guide the process. The final field art was so large it required a local farmer's plane to achieve enough height to photograph the entire Trust The Earth field art installation.

"A farmer's field is a place to cultivate life-changing ideas and grow a voice for those still seeking hemp-based wellness. Through this powerful artwork, we experience a coalition between earth and humanity, and our journey to create sustainable, natural wellness. In the case of hemp, revolutionary wellness,” shared Jared Stanley, Chief Cultivation Officer and a co-founder of Charlotte's Web about the campaign. 

Charlotte’s Web isn’t the first brand to tap this medium to get its message out, a colossal maze inspired by Netflix favorite Stranger Things was unveiled in Lafayette, Indiana back in 2018. However, Charlotte’s Web is certainly the first CBD/Hemp brand to do such an innovative campaign of this magnitude and they deserve all the credit for it.

Exploring the Sacred Aztec God Mushroom Strain

Introduction to Psychoactive Mushrooms

Psychoactive mushrooms, also known as hallucinogenic mushrooms, have been revered for centuries across various cultures for their profound spiritual, medicinal, and recreational properties. These remarkable fungi contain psychoactive compounds such as psilocybin and psilocin, which have the power to alter perception, thought, and mood. The use of these mushrooms dates back to ancient Mesoamerican cultures, where they were considered sacred and integral to rituals and ceremonies aimed at communicating with the gods and ancestors. The Aztecs, in particular, held these mushrooms in high esteem, often referring to them as “the flesh of the gods” due to their ability to induce mystical and divine experiences.

What are Aztec God Mushroom strains?

This is a strain of psychedelic mushrooms commonly harvested in Central America and Southern Mexico. They possess a moderate to average psilocybin potency and have been widely utilized by the Aztecs for religious purposes. They are widely cultivated or harvested for their above-average psilocybin content, which is suitable for beginners and prolonged trips when taken in large doses.

Moon Rock Weed: Out of This World

What is Moon Rock Weed?

Definition and Composition with Hash Oil

Marijuana moon rocks are a unique and highly potent cannabis product that combines multiple forms of cannabis into one extraordinary item. The creation process begins with high-quality cannabis buds, which are then coated in hash oil—a concentrated form of cannabis extract. This sticky, oil-covered bud is subsequently rolled in kief, a collection of resin glands found on cannabis flowers. The result is a product that boasts THC concentrations of 50% or higher, far surpassing the typical 15-30% found in standard cannabis strains. This combination of cannabis buds, hash oil, and kief makes moon rocks an exceptionally strong and sought-after product in the cannabis community.

History and Rise to Fame

The creation of marijuana moon rocks is credited to West Coast rapper Kurupt, who brought this potent product into the limelight in the mid-2010s through his brand, Kurupt’s Moonrock. Since their introduction, moon rocks have garnered a reputation as a premium cannabis product, often likened to the “champagne” of the marijuana world. Marijuana moon rocks stand as a symbol of both the uniqueness and evolution within the cannabis industry, representing not only high potency but also the creativity in cannabis culture. Their rise to fame has been fueled by their powerful effects and unique composition, making them a favorite among cannabis enthusiasts. The combination of celebrity endorsement and the product’s exceptional potency has solidified moon rocks’ status as a top-tier choice for those seeking an elevated cannabis experience.

Weed Makes Me Introspective: When Cannabis Causes Us to Reconsider Our Life Choices

Pot Prompts Self-Reflection

Being stoned comes with a wealth of side effects – some of which are just part of the fun, while others have been known to get smeared all over a person’s psyche, causing them to gawk out the window every thirty seconds to see if the cops are coming up the stairs.

Perhaps the least discussed byproduct of the bud, however, is its uncanny ability to send the user into a maddening state of introspection. Cannabis can make individuals more attuned to their bodily sensations, emotions, and inner thoughts, which can contribute to this introspective state. Weed can often inspire the high-minded to start questioning their life choices, setting them on a path of self-doubt, self-loathing, and self-destruction.

No More DEA Traveler Searches!

Agents affiliated with the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) have been instructed to stop searching travelers at airports or other “mass transportation facilities” without a warrant, following a directive issued by Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General. The directive, issued earlier this month, followed an investigation by the IG’s office. That investigation determined that DEA personnel lacked adequate training and often failed to properly document their search-related activities.

“The DEA’s failure to collect data for each consensual encounter, as required by its own policy, and its continued inability to provide us with any assessment of the success of these interdiction efforts once again raise questions about whether these transportation interdiction activities are an effective use of law enforcement resources – and leaves the DEA once again unable to provide adequate answers to those questions,” Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz determined.
