"Both Luis and Nikki have long term plans for Flor de Luna. They hope to educate the community by offering “CBD 101” sessions in both English and in Español in order to help educate their neighbors about CBD. More importantly, to combat the stigma and dispel the myths around marijuana. Nikki asserts that “CBD has been an integral part of our family’s health, and we want to make sure that our community is well informed about this medicine. When the time is right, we will also be planning a variety of healing circles and events to promote physical, mental, and spiritual health.”
