Earth’s Own Naturals launches new campaign

To encourage the customization of purchasing cannabis, Earth’s Own Naturals is kicking off their new campaign entitled What is Your Own Natural?

The campaign, which launches in late June, seeks to address the varying ways in which cannabis affects individuals. According to owner Laurie Weitzel, the experience of purchasing a cannabis product should be as unique as the consumer themselves.

“Everyone is an individual, everyone is different, and cannabis treats everyone different. The way you and I metabolize the same strain could be night and day,” said Weitzel on the reason for launching her new campaign.

To address these differences and bring about positive cannabis experiences for their clients, Earth’s Own Naturals encourages customers to come into the shop for discussions with sales representatives. During these meetings, their knowledgeable staff will ask clients a series of easy going questions to determine the best products for their desired experience. Whether consumers want to partake in elevated yoga, go on a hike, read a book, or do anything in between, Weitzel is confident her team can help craft the right products for each individual need.

Earth’s Own Naturals carries a variety of cannabis products including oils, smokeables, pre-rolls, dried flowers, an assortment of edibles, bath oils, topicals, drinks, and various smoking accessories. Weitzel encourages anyone with questions or looking to purchase products to call in or come visit the shop.
