What I Know So Far
24. Cannabis, Curiosity, and Connection with Penny Barthel
In this episode I invited Penny Barthel, author of 'The Cannabis Gardener,' to discuss her journey from traditional gardening to becoming a prominent figure in the cannabis education field. Penny shares insights about her evolving perceptions of cannabis, driven by personal experiences and scientific curiosity. We explore how societal norms and personal biases influence our views on cannabis and the importance of following one's curiosity, especially in midlife. Penny candidly discusses the challenges and joys of reinventing oneself, the impact of cannabis on health, and the significance of remaining open to new experiences and knowledge. The conversation celebrates the courage to embrace unconventional paths and the importance of lifelong learning.
Penny Barthel is author of The Cannabis Gardener, Co-Founder of cannabis education company Wondering About Weed, home gardener, certified cannabis horticulturist, and recipe developer. She lives what she teaches and her writing and garden pursuits flow directly from her education and lived experience. Cannabis sativa has captivated Penny's attention in all its stages from seed to tasty young herb to sparkly mature bud. Penny believes that cannabis belongs in the garden, bringing wonders of health and joy to those who get to know this remarkable plant. Penny has been featured in the LA Times, Grow Magazine, KitchenToke, MJ, Sunset Magazine, Growing Weed in the Garden, as a trial grower for The Humboldt Seed Company, in several podcasts, and in numerous public speaking engagements from Berkeley to Harlem. Penny resides in the San Francisco Bay Area with her family and as many plants as will fit in her small city garden.
