I once described the HighBazaar event as being hosted in Gargamel’s castle with Ogres and Hempirial guards. But something happened… The snow came and the wind blew. It knocked down a tent that had once hosted a couple dozen exhibitors and will not be replaced. With the happy tents all gone now, only it’s true face remains. That cube on the hill looks like The Borg. But it isn’t … [Read more...] about Happy Borg

Weed Bank
The cannabis industry is like any other industry out there. They need a place to put their money. Just like you and I, most businesses put their money in the bank. Usually, in these banks where business entities keep their money, they can obtain business loans to grow their businesses.

A Union in Cannabis
If there was ever an industry that needed a union, it’s the Connecticut cannabis industry. Too many times employers in this industry have used 280e as an excuse to cut costs and staff unnecessarily. Employers often expect employees to work towards their business dream while leaving them working for minimum wage or slightly above minimum wage, without benefits. But there’s an … [Read more...] about A Union in Cannabis
Did anyone notice this elephant in the room? 280E
280E? Is that a Mercedes-Benz? No. Well yes it is, but that’s not what we’re talking about here. Most people would say something like “You’re in the medical/recreational marijuana business? You must be loaded!” Major misconception. Especially when considering that 280E stands in the way of dispensary/production business models. This is something that needs to be talked … [Read more...] about Did anyone notice this elephant in the room? 280E
Wings With A Kick by, The Munch Star
If you are anything like me, you love a good chicken wing. Well done and extra crispy so it’s all crunchy and yummy. Then taking those fabulous crunchy munchies and dripping them in wonderfully woven sauces of the sweets, the sours, and the spicy 🌶. I love them all and enjoy them individually.

The Edge of SuperNova
When a star goes supernova it will first blast out all of the power that it has created over the last gazillion years. That energy will then contract and incubates before blasting out across the galaxy. The star is at its point of contraction. If I said it once I will say it 1 million times. Every time is the first time at HighBazaar. The landscape here is constantly … [Read more...] about The Edge of SuperNova
Who doesn’t love a good sunset?
The Mandarin… Super citrus fruit? Marvel Super Villian? Or is it something that when you add a nice sunset you get great weed? Once upon a time I was strolling through The HighBazaar and came across an exhibit that caught my eye. Ganja Gals. A few people call me Ganja John, so I thought I needed to stop here. After all, we had something in common. Talk about a bunch of … [Read more...] about Who doesn’t love a good sunset?
