Been talking to a few folx and wondering if anyone's up for a mini-gathering? Im thinking super chill, small group, low key, no pressure, just to meet up and hang out, share some info about weed! I'm thinking like... Self-care Sunday? or a high happy hour monday? @River Katz has offered to come and do portraits if we do, since they couldn't make it to the Oz event. Would most likely take place somewhere laid back in NE/SE portland. What do you think?

Hey! Wondering if there is anyone from the Western Slope in this group. I would love to socialize/get together with like minded women over on this side of Colorado.

Jolene, We're really sad also!!! There will be more socials in the future for sure, but in the mean time - stay tuned for meet ups surrounding halloween, witchy women and Tokes 'N Treats!! Looking forward to working with you on future events for Eugene - thanks for being willing to help, I'd love to work with you! xo

Hey lovelies! I have a friend from the east coast coming to visit between the 19th and 25th, but there's no Tokeativity event in that time and I'm desperate for her to experience a little bit of our special local community. Are there any cannabis consumption events going on that week/weekend we can check out?

I'd be down!

Call To Action! For great people who are looking for good industrial farming experience, to help us plant 250 acres of hemp. Dates: June 15- 20 2019 (UPDATED!). It is a 4 day planting session. Location: Burns, Oregon. Its is 2.5 hrs east of Bend, and 2.5 hrs west of Boise ID. Pay: $20 per hour. We are looking to identify 5 more people to help plant seedlings. We will need your commitment for 3 nights and 4 days. An 8-hour planting shift is required each day, with an option for 1-2 additional hours helping with the logistics of each days planting. We are planting with a 7 seat/row transplanter behind a tractor, so this is not manual hand-planting 250 acres. That being said, a person has to have the ability, comfort and stamina to sit and place plants from a tray into a planter wheel, with short intervals every 15-20 minutes, to get down off the seat for some movement and reload trays. This is a 1000 acre farm, and our family lives in a trailer in the middle. We will have food catered in twice a day and place to sit and relax. We have room to tent here on the farm. We will have showers available and porta-potties available. Burns is a small town so there are few hotels in town, and they are inexpensive. We are working this farm with a few Mennonite families, and the high desert is very beautiful. We are only 10 minutes from Crane Hot Springs, and its only $10 to soak!

Monica Lo, chef, photographer & creator of cannabis food blog Sousweed Did you know that 3 out of 4 women in the U.S. have access to legal cannabis? Yet buying weed can still be intimidating. In case you don’t have a friend you can bring with you to a dispensary, Monica Lo is the California based chef, photographer & creator of cannabis food blog Sousweed, shares her story to help you feel more comfortable. Transcript below. LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS | STITCHER | OVERCAST | POCKET CASTS | SPOTIFY | iHEART LINKS Monica Lo of Sousweed CREDITS Host: Ellen Lee Scanlon Producer: Nick Patri Brand manager: Madi Fair TRANSCRIPT FOR DO THE POT EPISODE 100 Ellen Lee Scanlon (00:00): This podcast discusses cannabis and is intended for audiences 21 and over. Ellen Lee Scanlon (00:07): Welcome to How to Do the Pot, a podcast demystifying cannabis for women. I'm Ellen Scanlon. On these short episodes, we share women's stories about the first time they bought legal weed. I hope they bring a little fun and a new perspective into your week. In honor of National Dessert Day, which is today, we partnered with Monica Lo, a California based chef and creator of the food blog, Sous Weed, to bring you some delicious honey shortbread cookies made with cannabis infused sous weed honey to go with your bedtime tea. You can see it all on Instagram @dothepot and @sousweed. That's S-O-U-S-W-E-E-D. And stay tuned for How to Do the Pot's upcoming episodes about cannabis and sleep, and how these yummy cookies maybe just what you need for a better night's rest. Monica Lo (00:59): The first time I bought legal weed was with my California Medical Cannabis card that I had gotten when I had my back injury. My roommate and I, at the time, went to stock up on all the goods at our local neighborhood dispensary, just to try a bunch of things for pain management. We went inside. The interior of the shop was done up like the cigar lounge, and it had really nice warm tones, and woods, and leather, so it felt cozy, and not sketchy, at all. There was this epic menu with different flowers and edibles. And, to be honest, I felt it was a little intimidating, especially the first time being in a dispensary. I didn't know what I was reading. But this was back in the day, where it was okay to ask for the jars, and you could open it up and smell all the different strains. I remember I really enjoyed doing that, and I learned a lot that way too. Monica Lo (02:00): I wound up taking home a bag of trim to use in my sous weed experiments, because it was much cheaper to use trim than purchasing all the premium flour. I also bought some chocolates and macaroons to try out, as well. I remember when I was checking out, they dropped in some free brownies into my bag. I don't think it's allowed these days, but I remember taking them home and trying them, and they were so gross, and so stale. Yeah, that was nasty. Homemade, for sure, definitely is where it's at. Ellen Lee Scanlon (02:43): Thanks for listening to this episode of How to Do the Pot. If you'd like to share your story about the first time you bought legal weed, please send a voice memo to hi@dothepot.com, or DM us @dothepot.

A bipartisan coalition of congressional lawmakers on Thursday reintroduced legislation that would federally legalize medical marijuana for military veterans. The bill is being sponsored by Reps. Barbara lee (D-CA) and Dave Joyce (R-OH), both co-chairs of the Congressional Cannabis Caucus, in the House, along with nine other original cosponsors. On the Senate side, Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) is leading the proposal, and he’s joined by five other lawmakers, including Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). The Veterans Medical Marijuana Safe Harbor Act would temporarily allow veterans to legally possess and use cannabis under federal law, as recommended by doctors in accordance with state law. Physicians with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) would also be allowed for the first time to issue such recommendations. Further, it would require VA to study the therapeutic potential of marijuana for pain and reducing opioid misuse. Currently, VA allows its physicians to talk about cannabis use with veterans, but they’re prohibited from issuing recommendations that would allow them to obtain marijuana from state-legal markets. Earlier versions of the companion bills were introduced in the last two Congresses but did not advance. With Democrats in control of both chambers and the White House this session, however, there’s renewed optimism that these types of cannabis proposals could move in 2021. “It has been scientifically proven that medical marijuana has a considerable impact in treating conditions common with veterans when they return from service, like chronic pain and PTSD,” Lee said in a press release. “This legislation will empower veterans and their doctors to make informed decisions about the use of medical marijuana to treat chronic conditions in states with legal medical marijuana programs without federal interference.” Joyce said that there’s “a growing body of evidence about the beneficial uses of medical cannabis as treatment for PTSD and chronic pain, two terrible conditions that plague many of our veterans.” “If a state has made it legal, like Ohio has, the federal government should not be preventing a VA doctor from recommending medical cannabis if they believe that treatment is right for their patient,” he said. “I’m proud to join my colleagues in introducing this important bill and will continue to do everything in my power to ensure we are providing our veterans with the care they need to overcome the wounds of war.” For the fiscal years 2022 and 2023, the bill would set aside $15 million for VA to administer the policy change. The legalization and physician recommendation provisions of the legislation would expire after five years, unless renewed by Congress. “In 36 states, doctors and their patients have the option to use medical marijuana to manage pain—unless those doctors work for the VA and their patients are veterans,” Schatz said. “This bill protects veteran patients in these states and gives their VA doctors the option to prescribe medical marijuana to veterans, and it also promises to shed light on how medical marijuana can help with the nation’s opioid epidemic.” — Marijuana Moment is already tracking more than 1,000 cannabis, psychedelics and drug policy bills in state legislatures and Congress this year.

While this reform would constitute a significant policy change for veterans, there are also plans in the works to more broadly end federal marijuana prohibition. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said this week that a bill to federally legalize marijuana that he’s planning to introduce alongside Senate Finance Chairman Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) will be brought to the floor of his chamber “soon.” On the House side, Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) said recently that he plans to reintroduced his legalization bill, the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act, which cleared the chamber last year but did not advance in the Senate under GOP control.
