Join us to explore the basics of cannabis and the endocannabinoid system, then create a silky
smooth salve made with full spectrum 1:1 cannabis concentrate. This topical salve is ideal for
aching muscles and joints, and targets both neuropathic and inflammatory pain. This salve will
not make you high, and is safe for all ages. Students will have the option of adding additional
essential oils to add fragrance and additional healing properties to their salve. This is an
original recipe featured in Penny’s book, The Cannabis Gardener.
