Hello Friends! I've been sitting on this episode forever, and I'm so excited to get this episode out, and what more perfect time, when people will be getting flowers and wreaths to decorate their homes for the holidays, as well as honey to sweeten your various holiday teas.
This episode I had the pleasure of chatting with Cade Kamaleson, program officer of Chicago Eco House, a local flower farm located on the south and west sides of Chicago. This is a great conversation, and we talk about all of the awesome work the organization is doing. Listen and Share!

#66 - Off The Beaten Podcast Invades the USA CBD Expo
Hello Friends! So yesterday I had the privilege and pleasure of visiting the USA CBD Expo as a member of the press. It was a day without the general public to dive in and check out everything, and get a chance to talk to the people behind some of the newest, freshest and most innovative CBD companies and brands around.
I had an amazing time, and can't encourage you enough to go check out the expo this weekend (Friday and Saturday October 29 and 30th) and see it all for yourself. There are also panel discussions and classes to get you up to speed on the CBD scene.
Do you indulge in CBD? THC? Delta-8? Delta-10? Definitely slide into my DM's and let me know. I'd love to hear your thoughts on all of this.
Special thank you to everyone who took the time out of their busy day to talk with me. Please check out these brands below, and if you should make a purchase, be sure to tell them that OTBP sent you!
Note: In the original posting of this episode, I mentioned glaucoma as one of the ailments that CBD is used for. However, as of 2019, many doctors are recommending NOT to use CBD as a natural treatment for glaucoma. Here is more information on this recommendation: Eye Doctors Caution Against Using CBD as Glaucoma Remedy
