Americans for Safe Access

Also Known as the ASA The Americans for Safe Access has recently created a new program that everyone must know about. Americans for Safe Access is a member-based organization of patients, medical professionals, scientists and concerned citizens promoting safe and legal access to cannabis for therapeutic use and research.

We have come along way but our system, laws and our rights are far from perfect and with raids still happening, what’s a medical cannabis provider to do? Thankfully, Americans For Safe Access (ASA) has launched a “Raid Response” campaign to help protect our MMJ community’s rights. When a raid is in progress and reported to ASA, here’s a taste of how things are supposed to go down

Step 1 As illustrated above ... ASA staff checks its database to find information about the provider or dispensary being raided.

Step 2 is illustrated to our right as the ASA seeks to confirm the raid by calling the dispensary contacts it has on file. Communicating directly with the dispensary. This gives the ASA the opportunity to acquire the accurate information prior to sending out Text Alerts to the MMJ community.


Step 3 .... Attorneys for the medical cannabis provider and the local media are both contacted. A text alert is sent to the community.

Finally Step 4 ......Local activists are convened, a press release is issued, victims and patients are supported.

Budd Buzzard Beef Jerky from Fuzzy Gardens

As the boom of Medical Marijuana continues the popularity of medical edibles and beverages grows with it. Although many of my friends and peers rant and rave about the new products available, I on the other hand am personally very cautious and skeptical about edibles. We all know that direct is indigestion is the only way to overdose and I guess I am a little paranoid about it myself. I guess I have a hard time feeling comfortable about it when I don't know who prepared it and how safe their recipe or staff may be. In all I think the same can be said for buying food in drive-thru. So I decided to buy an edible from the pharmacy I trust the most... Fuzzy Gardens.

I had tried some cookies before so this time I wanted to try something different. I was hoping this time around it would hit me stronger so I went with a 5$ bag of beef jerky hoping the oils were more effective. The product is called Budd Buzzard Beef Jerky and it came in a small bag with a half ounce of jerky. The half ounce consisted of about 4 and 1/2 small sticks of greasy beefy. The taste really normal. When I buy beef jerky i like the spicy kind but this tasted practically the same as a regular stick of non-spicy jerky. Being as paranoid as I am, I only had a stick and a half to evaluate the first serving and I am sure glad I did. It worked. Total relaxation.

It really worked. the taste and the strength went very well went my body. Not to mention it was just 5$ and I still have 2 servings left. Yes I am a light weight so it may affect you bigger people a little less but for a 165 pounder it was just right for me. You gotta check it out if you into edibles. It gets my vote.

$5 grams in Riverside

First and Foremost Happy 420! It a great day to recollect on our culture's progress. Over the last few years California and other states have begun to rebuild to our economy with the industrialization of marijuana. Today you could even see the national trend when the hash tag #Happy420 became a trending topic on twitter. With Celebrities like B-Real and Dave Chapelle right in the mix, it appears that April 20th is no longer just stoner language.

For my holiday medicine i was off to a spot called CCG Meds. They Located off the 215 near, right past Center. I have been going to CCG Meds for a few months now and usually they see me on Wednesday or Thursdays for some great deals they host on those specific days. I go in often to check out the $5 Grams and Today I had chose a decent strain called Mr. Brown. It had some crystals so I choose it over the other five strains they had available at that price. I went to order six grams for $30 bucks and the young female clerk made me aware of the 20% off which was a bonus discount running for the holiday. So I quickly changed my order from six to ten grams. After the regular weekly special and the holiday rate I walked out with 10 grams for just 40$. I smoke alot and I have more bills than I can afford so this was a plentiful reward and it made my holiday 10 times better walking away with much more than I expected.

As for the smoke..... Mr Brown turned out to be one of their better $5 offers. I have gotten few strains of better quality for $5 but I have gotten much worse from other pharmacies. There is a slightly pleasant taste to the strain. Its very dense and as the name calls.... its brown. Its also a Hybrid for those of you that are wondering. Overall it turn out to be a great trip and I know the next few day will roll along much smoother. Big Ups to CCG and Happy 420 to all of you.

Fuzzy Gardens in Riverside

Fuzzy Gardens is located Downtown Riverside right next to the court house. The parking is not perfect but everything else. I've been going to Fuzzy Gardens since December and as usual I was lured in by an advertisement of 6 gram 8th's for first time customers. Unfortunately the first time I went I only took 40$ and all 8th's are 50$. So I never got my 6 grams 8th. instead I settled for 2 grams for 30$. It was not the deal I wanted but that didn't stop me from appreciating what I did leave with.



I left with the best medicine I could find in a 10 mile radius. You see Fuzzy Gardens does not have a top shelf. Everything in the shop is premium quality. I have at least 20 visits under my belt and I have not been disappointed once outside of not getting that 6 gram 8th. I took some time to review the Fuzzy Gardens because I wanted to be sure 100 percent before I made judgement and my 4 month evaluation has drove me to the conclusion that Fuzzy Gardens is the best Medical Marijuana dispensary in Riverside, California. I have visited every shop in Riverside. Most shops lure you in with to good to be true advertisements attached to not so good medicine. Fuzzy Gardens doesn't play that type of game. Fuzzy Gardens doesn't have many deals at all. Outside of the 6 gram 8th for 1st time patients, the only deals you will find is 5 $ off during happy hour and the recently added 10$ grams. The newly added 10 $ grams are actually better than some of the top shelf's at other pharmacies.

A lot of the staff that works at the local dispensary's will just talk to talk. Some have even lied to my face about the product, the industry or even the science involved in medical marijuana. Not the staff at Fuzzy Gardens. Over here its all business and while being courteous, the staff at Fuzzy Gardens are very professional. After a few visits you will trust them just as much as I do.

Most recently I got the Sour OG and its was a treat. The smell was perfect, the taste was wonderful and its very effective strain of medicine. I personally recommend running in for a batch but don't be alarmed if the are out of stock. Like I said every strain at the Fuzzy Garden's will make you a happy customer. Fuzzy Gardens also recently added edibles and beverages which I have yet to try, but I am very confident of their quality. Don't miss out. Trust me when I say If you live in Moreno Valley, Corona, Bloomington or Colton ..... Fuzzy Gardens is worth the drive. 

Reviewing Riverside's Green Ribbon Co-Op

Peace and blessings my friends. I hope you missed me. I know you didn't think I stopped smoking, Right? Over the past few weeks I have visited the same collective on several occasions. I know it wasn't the agenda when creating the blog, but the special fit the quality and overall the price was right.

I again found the Green Ribbon Co-Op inside the Culture Magazine and I was interested in the house special. As Advertised its a 1/8th of anything on the shelf for $39.00 and I figured it's a good deal, if i could get a decent amount of pain relief. Medical Marijuana is expensive. Its not much different from the street value and pricing, but when its compared to beer, Advil or even cigarettes, your receipts make you wonder.
Since i got so many different types and made several trips i will list my evaluations below to make its more easy on you readers.

Hindu Skunk:

If there was one strand I would suggest not trying it would have to be the Hindu Skunk. It just didn't float my boat. Kinda Dry and Flaky.. it really didn't seem fresh or potent. It has a soft kick like a newborn baby. I don't know if its my tolerance, But I would believe most patients need something much stronger for relief.

Chernobyl:

This strains name scares me. You should google its name. Considering the knowledge of the name's meaning, I figured it would be strong. Honestly it was slightly better thank the Hindu Skunk. Again it wasn't really fresh and its didn't taste as good as it looked. Overall on a scale of 1 thru 10,  I would give it a 4.4 on the scale.

Purple Mr. Nice:

I loved this strain. The taste was nice and smelled great. I would say it could be stronger, but it was perfect for my work online. yes it was light for me, but it gave a very mellow and chill vibe. I kinda Felt a nice body high too. Now Im learning the differences between Sativa and Indicas. I forgot which this was.. but it was worth the ticket. 6.2 on the Scale

Dream Queen:

An absolute bargain for the price. I actually wanted more and they ran out before i could get back to the collective. Fast and heavy relief. After smoking this the first day.. I didn't feel my arthritis for 2 or 3 days. Coincidence, yeah maybe, but its was a great score. I suggested trying it if you get a chance. On the Scale I would give it a 6.9, it was good!

Fire Og:

As with any medicine, patients become immune to it eventually. If your like me you need the best of the best. Fire Og is around 7.5 on my scale. The best value I found at this collective. It was worth regular price and with the house special its made me a happy camper. if you get a chance grab a few servings of this batch, its doesn't always get this good. I suggest a nice water pipe and movie.


Overall the Green Ribbon Co-Op and the Culture Magazine serve its purpose. I have seen alot better medicine but I have also seen alot worse. I am Satisfied and I will visit them again someday. You can find them located on Magnolia just off the Tyler exit. I don't know how long the special is but $39 for an 1/8th is a great deal .. get it while its hots.
