Hey Baes!

Oh how we've missed you! BUT don't worry because we didn't forget about youuuuu! Today, we are completing our work with the mint family AND starting a new series called, Sacred Smokes! Starting of the series, we are discussing White Sage and it's uses by indigenous folks in the Americas, especially Southern California and into Northern Mexico. We are paying big respects to this plant and inviting you all into some ways you, too, can bring honor to this sacred plant.

So, grab a nice cold glass of iced black tea, take a seat, and let's get into the sacred smokes y'all!!
