After eight months in his childhood home helping his mother through her bout with cancer, Matthew Frank and his wife were themselves desperate for comfort. They found sanctuary in the most unlikely place--amid a collection of outcasts and eccentrics on a plot of land miles outside their comfort zone: a "mostly medical" marijuana farm in California. Pot Farm details the strange, sublime, and sometimes dangerous goings-on at Weckman Farm, a place with hidden politics and social hierarchies, populated by recovering drug addicts, alternative healers, pseudo-hippie kids, and medical marijuana users looking to give back. There is also Lady Wanda, the massive, elusive, wealthy, and heavily armed businesswoman who owns the farm and runs it from beneath a housedress and a hat of peacock feathers. Frank explores the various roles that allow this industry to work--from field pickers to tractor drivers, cooks to yoga instructors, managers to snipers, illegal immigrants to legal revisionists, and the delivery crew to the hospice workers on the other end. His book also looks at the blurry legislation regulating the marijuana industry as well as the day-to-day logistics of running such an operation and all the relationships that brings into play. Through firsthand observations and experiences (some influenced by the farm's cash crop), interviews, and research, Pot Farm exposes a thriving but unsung faction of contemporary American culture.Binding Type: Paperback

Soft and cozy
Color: Tie-dye Cream Beige, Size: Twin(60"x80")
Recieved last week. The texture is soft and warm. Love it so far. The beige color is a little more greige than I expected but it still goes well with my decor.

Amazing blanket. Definitely recommend!!😊
Color: Tie-dye Sage, Size: Twin(60"x80")
Best blanket ever. I got it for an Amazon a lightning deal for 55% off! It was only 22 dollars and this is the most comfortable blankets ever. It is very soft and it keeps me very warm. I would definitely recommend it, it's even more beautiful in person. It's very high quality, and it's lightweight but keeps you warm. Though I wish they would lower the price, because it's 70 dollars to buy another one. But still an amazing blanket, 5 stars for me!!! 😊😊🥰🥰😍😍🤗🤗💗💞

Fabulous and sooooo soft
Color: Tie-dye Khaki, Size: Throw(50"x60"), Color: Tie-dye Khaki, Size: Throw(50"x60")
This blanket is so extremely soft and cozy. The only reason I deducted a star was because the fur side and the velvety side aren’t sew together anywhere besides the edges/seams, so when I fold it it’s basically like 2 blankets just sewn together and not one blanket. When you lie with it and cover you, they sort of separate if that makes sense but it doesn’t bother us. It’s so comfy to have on the couch and while movie watching. The only time it sort of a pain is when I fold it. In saying that, I would buy again. The velvety side is a soft tan/beige and the fur side is creams, off white and variations of the tan/beiges. So lovely. You can see it next to a solid cream colored blanket I have that I also bought on Amazon. It matches well and I love it!

This one is really soft
Color: Tie-dye Khaki, Size: Throw(50"x60")
This is actually baby bunny soft! I was very pleasantly surprised. The top side is plush and the bottom side is smooth but in a velvety suede type smooth. It is very well made and after machine washing and drying it several times it still looks and feels new.
