How did you gain your canna-knowledge?

I’ve been using cannabis medically and recreationally for many years prior to working in cannabis. But HPC has given us lots of opportunities for expanding our knowledge about the plant through training and getting to try different products that are available for consumers.

Do you find that your clients are becoming more comfortable asking questions and opening up about how they do and do not want to feel with regards to cannabis?

Yes - I think more customers are expanding their vocabulary surrounding cannabis involving terpenes and other cannabinoids they are interested in which helps them communicate what they are looking for with their cannabis use.

HPC is deeply rooted in community service - how have you been received as a dispensary?

Great! I personally have done a bit of volunteering with Food Share in their garden, and they loved having us out there helping them out.

What is your favorite aspect of being a budtender?

Connecting with all types of people through the cannabis plant and helping people find the relief they need <3.

Any product recommendations - what’s trending?

My current fav products are the Lost Farms chews, specifically the cherry limeade GMO ones! They’re basically a rosininfused Starburst! And my current flower brand right now is Lumpy’s! Indoor flower with crazy terp profiles!
