<\/p>\n

This weekend is the\u00a0Fourth of July, which is usually a day that Americans gather in large groups, eat hot dogs, watch fireworks and celebrate freedom. This year will be different due to COVID-19. Many fireworks celebrations are being canceled across the nation and it is still recommended that no large groups congregate.<\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t enjoy the day with people in your smaller social bubble or even on Zoom. We\u2019ve got a list of strains that pair perfectly with Independence Day celebrations and large list of cannabis-infused food selections to prepare for the weekend. <\/p>\n

And speaking of freedom, let\u2019s use this holiday to think about how we\u2019re not exactly free in this country, especially when it comes to some of the things we\u2019re allowed to possess, ingest or do with our bodies. There is still a lot of work to be done towards the legalization of the plant we all love and in many other aspects of our society. <\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing quite like celebrating your country\u2019s 241st birthday with some fine cannabis, and this year we\u2019ve got you covered will all the herbal accessories you\u2019ll need to make the fireworks look even cooler!<\/p>\n

As with every Independence Day, those hot dogs aren\u2019t going to eat themselves. You\u2019re going to need the proper fuels to start in the early afternoon with the barbecue, progress onto the municipal fireworks display, and finally close the night off with that bonfire that\u2019s likely not exactly up to code.<\/p>\n

As always, remember to consume responsibly \u2014 especially where fireworks are involved.<\/p>\n

This weekend there will be an abundance of backyard barbeques and poolside parties where tokers will have the opportunity to show off their manners while they celebrate. Chances are most know not to leave their spit all over the mouthpiece, not to torch the entire bowl during a bong rip and that \u201cpuff, puff, pass\u201d is more than just a casual recommendation while in a group setting. But sometimes details slip under the radar and make for some disastrous party fouls.<\/p>\n

Check out these suggestions to help keep the weekend blooper-free.<\/p>\n

If there is one aspect of the marijuana legalization debate that doesn\u2019t get as much talk time as it should, it is the idea that adults\u00a0should<\/em>\u00a0have the freedom to use the herb without the risk of John Law trying to put them in a cage.<\/p>\n

Chew on that today while you are hanging out with friends and family, grilling meats, drinking booze and firing off explosives. Perhaps the first spark of the day should be one dedicated to the new freedoms to come. And\u00a0if that spark<\/a>\u00a0just so happens to lead to you getting stoned, well, all the better.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it, every Fourth of July, we all celebrate \u2014 hard. Those of us hosting backyard barbecues across the nation will be whipping up traditional American foods, including hot dogs, hamburgers, corn on the cob, potato salad, macaroni salad, potato chips, strawberry shortcakes, barbecue pork and chicken, lemonade,\u00a0\u00a0flag-colored desserts, and spiked drinks of every concoction. While eating healthy food seems to be almost impossible on the Fourth of July, \u00a0this recipe for cannabis-infused overnight oats with strawberries is both indulgent and nutritious.<\/p>\n
