Susan M.

Budtender

Susan was born and raised on her dad’s reservation of Skokomish, but is enrolled in her mom’s tribe Yakama. She became interested in cannabis as an alternative to pharma meds in treating quite a few symptoms; such as pain, anxiety, depression, and nausea to name a few. She believes in the healing properties of cannabis and would rather use it than any pill or pharmaceuticals. Usually a Sativa smoker, she still likes to experiment with other products. Her favorite strains are Durban Poison and #9 Hammer. She’s incredibly excited to be working with the Port Gamble S’Klallam tribe!

Nicole T.

Nicole was born and raised in Washington State and enjoys the outdoors. A nice hot bonfire, and quality cannabis with her partner make for her perfect day, especially if there is a river nearby. She’s independent, a fighter, and an easy going professional. Nicole enjoys how cannabis has helped balance her mind and body, and loves learning about new and unique strains. With some quality cannabis, she feels like she can take over the world.
