The word of a trusted friend is invaluable. We go to our friends for movie recommendations, advice about career paths, and where the best Mexican in town is. Who better, then, to give you suggestions for your cannabis journey than a trusted staff member?

We asked six of our people to introduce themselves and give us a little insight into their favorite CC products. Check out what they had to say.

Marcus

Team member since June 2020

Staff Pick:
Girl Scout Cookie because of its comforting taste and aroma. In my opinion, it’s the perfect Sativa hybrid. It’s like coming home.

About Marcus:
Cannabis is a passion of mine and working at CC helps me connect that with educating our customers in a beautiful, judgment-free space. I remember when we first opened and were doing drive-up service for our customers. People were excited and loving the experience. It was so unexpected for us all, but that joy and excitement is what I want to see on all of my customers’ faces.

Staff Pick:
Since working at CC, I’ve shifted toward using concentrates, specifically live sugar products, because of their fantastic flavor and the full-spectrum experience they provide. That being said, my favorite accessory is the Lookah Seahorse Pro. This electronic “nectar collector” is a very affordable and user-friendly device used to dab concentrates without the typical complicated setup. All you need is the Seahorse Pro and your concentrate, and you’re good to go.

About Christian:
I love being involved in a growing industry that has historically been considered taboo. A massive chunk of our customer base is mid/late age folks who “never thought they would see this in their lifetime!” Watching people enter the shop for the first time will never get old. Many first-timers look sheepish as they enter as if they are doing something wrong before realizing how welcoming and encouraging the environment is. I’ve even had the pleasure of assisting someone I had met in my previous life as an RN. When I first met them, we worked together to find the best way to manage their symptoms at home. I mentioned cannabis as a potential option and told them to look into it if they were open to the idea. Fast forward over a year later, and there we were, in a dispensary, discussing cannabis and its medicinal value! Talk about a full-circle experience.

Noah

Team member since July 2020

Staff Pick:
Bedtime Betty’s Taffy by Betty’s Eddies. I’ve never had a better night’s sleep in my life!

About Noah:
Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have yet to be discovered.” I think that perfectly encompasses my feelings about cannabis and how people are finally responding to its healing properties. I believe the benefits of cannabis are nearly endless. I never get bored working in this industry because I’m always learning about new products and techniques for this beautiful plant’s therapeutic and medicinal applications.

Kenzie

Team member since June 2020

Staff Pick:
French King because of its relaxing effects, but you can function and do things throughout your day. A perfect trade-off!

About Kenzie:
I love working with customers every day and helping them out with what they need. The memory of us finally opening and being able to assist customers will stick with me forever. What a great feeling it is to help people on their cannabis journey.

Mirranda

Team member since June 2020

Staff Pick:
Kief Rosin from REV Clinics. The low-temperature concentrate is the perfect experience for a regular consumer, and its taste is to die for.

About Mirranda:
One thing I love about working with CC is the staff. They’re hardworking, kind, positive, and innovative. Watching everyone interact with the customers and create positive experiences with cannabis is an incredible feeling. There is a camaraderie between people who enjoy cannabis, and you’re never too far from your next new best friend.

Ian

Team member since April 2020

Staff Pick:
My favorite strain is Gelato! It’s a soothing strain that helps you relax and unwind but stay functional. It keeps me alert and ready for anything coming my way.

About Ian:
I love learning about the different aspects of cannabis use and how it can help daily. Sharing that knowledge with customers is one of my favorite parts of the job. I remember spending time with one customer talking about different types of cannabis and how terpenes affect your experience. I even showed her accessories and glassware she could use. What made it so special is that she came back a few weeks later to thank me for teaching her so much and that she will always recommend others to go and get the same experience she got from us. That makes me smile every day.
