We’ve been overwhelmed with the response from all you folks who are supporting our effort to spread the word about the cannabis plant with its power to reduce anxiety and depression, help us sleep, cure and prevent a long list of ailments, and maybe most important – have more fun. We wish we could reach out to each one of you with a big “thank-you.” Everything is so fake out there that first we want to explain that the people behind YourCanna-Club (www.yourcanna-club.com) are real. And the best news – we don’t use A.I. and we are not selling anything except an e-book.

All this new activity on our website, our new YouTube channel – https://www.youtube.com/@YourCanna-Club-xh6pi, Instagram, Threads, BlueSky, LinkedIn, & Substack, is just our family – me and my two sons. Sebastian, (2nd from left) and Mark pictured here with Jim and me before he became ill with Parkinson’s Disease.

Like so many other cannabis lovers, Jim’s illness is how we got into this whole thing. Sebastian is our grower, cultivator, & harvester. Mark created our book Cannabis: The Untold Story of our Greatest Plant, and all the videos you see on our YouTube channel. I write and post a lot of the stories on the website and I’m also the sales/marketing person. We are also lucky to have a hugely talented designer on board – Karin Henderson. She designed the YourCanna-Club website (www.yourcanna-club.com), our PuffPuffPassTunes page (www.PuffPuffPassTunes.com with all the greatest weed songs. Karin is  busy now working on the YourCanna-Club online store – YourCannaBodega. We should have that up and running in a few months.

So for the past four years we have been busy creating an ambitious cannabis multi-media project that includes a coffee table type book (thecannabisbook.net), a website (www.yourcanna-club.com), a YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@YourCanna-Club-xh6pi), and action on Instagram, Vimeo, TikTok, Substack, Threads, LinkedIn and BlueSky. Other plans include a video game (War on Drugs theme), a museum exhibit exploring the untold rich history of cannabis, and an online store (YourCannaBodega) with all sorts of cool cannabis-themed stuff.

Sebastian started experimenting with cannabis plants over a decade ago after learning about the positive impact the oil was having on people with Parkinson’s. A few years before Jim got sick, Sebastian’s surfing buddy (he lives in Hawaii) got Parkinson’s. By the time he was 30 he was in a wheel chair. But someone he knew had access to potent, full spectrum RSO (Rick Simpson) cannabis oil.  After several months Sebastian’s surfing buddy was out of his wheel chair and back riding the waves. He hoped  the oil would have the same impact on Jim. When he had trouble finding quality medicinal cannabis oil for his Dad in Hawaii, he began growing the plant and learning the technicalities of harvesting the flowers and making the oil.

That’s how we all got into this – trying to help Jim who died in 2021 after a 14 year struggle. Jim would be the first to tell you that having a supply of full-spectrum oil for those last 8 years of his life was a Godsend.

When our family saw how the oil enabled Jim to have a normal life long after his doctors predicted he would decline, we decided we wanted to do everything we could to share the story and spread the word about cannabis. And that’s what we are doing.
