I have the privilege to have/be worked/ing with these two amazing guys. They are so much fun and SO FUCKING SMART, but best of all, they know their weed. Lucas: "I am 24 y/o and I am from Pennsylvania where the cannabis stigma is strong. I have been involved in the community driven culture for 10 years; budtending for just over 1 year while constantly learning new information on this plant."Will: "My name is William Schusser and I was born and raised on the island of Maui. I ended up in choosing to live in Washington after finishing my degree at WSU. My career in the cannabis industry began about a year later. Through recreational consumption and research I learned a vast amount of information about cannabis. I hope to continue to grow my knowledge and use it to help others understand how to use cannabis."The knowledge that the two of these guys have is crazy, but they help break it down so we can understand a bit more about cannabis. Don't forget to check out this book: "Cannabis Pharmacy" - Michael Backes
