The holidays are a time for joy, family, and a little extra relaxation—but if you use medical cannabis, don’t forget to store it safely!

Holiday Storage Tips:
• Keep it secure – use a locked box or stash container.
• Out of sight, out of reach – especially with kids or guests around.
• Label everything – edibles can look like treats, so keep them clearly marked.
• Avoid heat & humidity – store in a cool, dry place to preserve potency.

Your wellness matters—and so does safety. Enjoy the season responsibly!
