Greetings !

This week we're rounding up some of our most unexpected insights, with Cannabis Boom showcasing the direct opposition to stereotypes that tout that cannabis consumption is primarily a habit for younger consumers. As the legalization of medical and recreational marijuana spreads across North America, boomer-specific services and products in this industry are on the uptick.

My favorite example is Octavia Wellness' casual, boomer-targeted cannabis parties, that aim to inform attendees on how consuming cannabis, or applying its properties topically, can improve their health and well-being.

Enjoy!
