With cottage season around the corner, there’s no better time to start planning a relaxing weekend away from our regular lives. Whether you are heading to the cottage or sticking to backyards for your adult getaway this season, cannabis is a great way to enhance the experience. Luckily, the experts at Canvas Cannabis are sharing their wealth of knowledge on which products to bring and how to use them safely for the best experience achievable.

No cottage, camping or backyard “getaway” is complete without a bonfire, and bonfires aren’t quite the same without the melty marshmallow and chocolaty richness of S’mores! Now, adults can enjoy their childhood favourite with a cannabis-infused twist. We recommend using any of the varieties of dark, milk or flavoured chocolates from brands like Bhang, Chowie Wowie or Legend which come in a perfectly sized square to melt between marshmallows and graham crackers.

Sweet and salty treats like S’mores require something to quench your thirst too and Canvas has an answer for that. There are plenty of phenomenal infused beverages such as the fruity selections from XMG or even something resembling a light, crisp and malty beer without the alcohol like Mollo. If our cannabis drink selection isn’t quite what you’re looking for, you can also easily infuse any drink of your choice with dissolvable powders from The Green Organic Dutchman or Edison.

If you like to roll your own joints, bringing a larger bag of cannabis flower is another great option. Canvas carries smooth-burning hemp and rice papers as well as easy-to-fill cones in case you run out of pre-rolls during your trip. If you’re not the type to smoke joints, we also recommend trying out our selection of bongs or pipes. Silicone pieces such as Eyce’s collection of accessories are a great option so you don’t have to worry about accidentally breaking glass.

While planning what cannabis products to bring is fun, safety is of course another important topic to consider. Driving while impaired is against the law, so do not drive if you have used cannabis. As such, we recommend having a designated driver to ensure a safe and trouble-free getaway. Be sure to also check you are within the 30-gram per person legal carrying limit. Similarly to driving with alcohol, cannabis must be kept inaccessible to anyone in the vehicle when traveling, whether it’s a car, boat or motorcycle.

As you’re preparing plans with friends and family for a weekend getaway heading into cottage season and summertime, cannabis is a great addition to make the good times even better. If you’re still unsure of what the best products are to bring along with you, Canvas Cannabis has a team of knowledgeable staff to help you navigate an endless selection of products available for curbside contactless pick-up or delivery across the GTA.

Happy trails!
