Supercharged and ready.
Welcome, everyone.
This is CryptoFam Radio Web 3 Women Wednesday.
I am your host, DooDooLaser.
You see him as the co-host there. Flick him a follow.
You guys haven't retweeted the space yet and liked and commented. Followed everyone in this space.
Please do now. It's definitely a small enough space that we can do so.
And it helps everyone out. And the algorithm helps everyone out.
And I know we say this every single day. and I know you do it every single day, too, and I appreciate you and everyone coming out to support Web3 Women Wednesday.
I see you, Homegrown Creations.
You guys visited us two Wednesdays ago.
We are actually going to rewind.
We're going to redo this interview because I rubbed the space.
I was in route to work, and I thought, hey, you know because I rubbed the space.
I was in route to work, and I thought, hey, you know, I can do the space real quick before I get to work.
Hey, I rubbed between the drive and button.
You know what, fam? It's all good.
It is what it is.
We are running it back, so we've got homegrown creations down there.
Before I introduce her, though, and before she grabs the mic mic i'm going to throw you guys a few updates uh show you how this space works what we do why we do it and uh and yeah today is a different day if you guys look up well it is not on the jumbotron yet i was going to say
we have a schedule i always like to bring that up and front and ready to go. GMGM, happy Wednesday,
guys. By the way, it is a beautiful Wednesday morning. I woke up super excited after a five
and a half hour sleep, I think almost six hours. I was a little bit on the low side,
not going to lie. I wasn't fully rested, but I felt well, right? Like well-rested,
not fully though. But I actually jumped into a new book. Oh, that's what exciting, fam. I don't
know if you guys read books at all still, but I'm reading this one book called Zen Habits,
a handbook of life by Leo Babita. I think that's his name. I'll have to post it in the comments sometimes, guys.
I took a photo of it. Don't let me forget. Zen Habits. Check it out. If you're like me
and you get a little bit of ADHD and you're not sure what to do, especially on your days
off from work and you're kind of like scatterbrained, this is a great book for you. All right. Because
habits are everything, right? We talk about habits in the space, setting up good habits,
good positive habits that will improve, right? Self-improve yourself over time. And this guy,
man, he gives you like a step-by-step, like it's a whole manual of like what you should be doing in the mornings,
afternoons, evenings, how you're supposed to be functioning as a human being and how,
get this fam, first topics of discussion was humans are only capable of doing one thing
at a time.
I know like we pride ourselves of being multitaskers, but if we actually really want to be intentional in the space and with people and with the stuff that we need to do to complete, to kind of like, you know, feel good about ourselves, right?
We want to be intentional, right?
We want to put first and do that one thing fully to the extent, right?
And then after you're done with that one thing, you leave it, right? And then you start a new project, right? You start a new thing and you
do that one thing. You don't keep switching, right? Every time we switch, all the time we do
multitask, we actually lose time because we keep switching in and out, jumping from one thing to
another, especially when it comes to social media. I totally have
been there, folks. And let me tell you, I have a system. Yes, it's called the Mochi Circle. Big
shout out to them anyway. Every time I post, I make sure that I engage with my circle. I make
sure that I complete 12 posts so I can get my extra engagement with the posts that I just posted,
right? And this is basically my format
every time I get up on Twitter now on my desktop. I do this every time. Like, if I'm going to check
Twitter, I have to do something. Like, that's my thing. Everyone's a little bit different, though.
When you figure that out, definitely let me know because everyone has their own, you know, tips and
tricks of how they focus. Some people do 40 minutes in, 20 minute break, kind of aimlessly checking their email from
time to time or having a set time where you check messages and notifications and emails
and whatnot.
But anyway, I don't want to get too much into that.
It's not, we're not talking about that today.
Sorry, guys.
You know, like what we're talking about.
I know, I get a little passionate all right give me give me that
much uh we have a speaker we have a speaker called homegrown creations we will be doing
another web three women wednesday we're gonna run it back and so i want to welcome to the stage
homegrown creations she is a six time award-winning gourmet infused baked uh artist
i would say like a baked good good artist and then uh she's also won lots of different awards
um from all over uh looks like different i don't know she'll tell me about them i guess i don't
know where all these uh where she won all of these awards and stuff. So we'll definitely
have to get into that, fam. I'm going to request the mic. Okay, okay, you did request. Awesome.
I will give you a homegrown creation. So thank you so much for coming up again and talking about
your business, how you connect with Web3 people day by day, how we've heard about you from,
you know, all the way from Art Basel in Miami. I think
that's where I first heard about you guys from the Wake and Blake show, from Blake and Moon Queen,
all the way to being a spark of the month a few months ago. And then just being in the space and
supporting people, you know, great people like Moon Queen and DigiJoints, you know great people like moon queen and digijoints you know
wake up lake so thank you so much for for coming back uh and for being interviewed i just want to
welcome you a warm welcome and uh gmgm happy happy wednesday Thank you and happy Wednesday.
Awesome.
Yeah.
Awesome.
Awesome.
How's your Wednesday going by the way?
Is it going pretty well?
I saw you in the Wake and Blake show earlier today.
So I'm just curious how your typical morning starts.
Has it been pretty fun so far and entertaining it's been productive
and entertaining there we go that's good to say yeah it's been it's been productive so far today
i got like i i've been um you know how like okay adhd it's my least favorite project right now so
you keep putting it off like I'll do it later.
I finished dealing with the bubble gum
I've been working out my
Choco Taco
waffle
taco shells since last
night. That sounds yummy.
Yeah, I'm
really excited.
I set myself up and I told people about him last weekend
so it kind of put me in that like emergency crunch time now i gotta really go figure it out
so that's what i've been doing isn't that funny isn't that funny what we do that to ourselves
like a psychological trigger we absolutely and we're like yeah we'll come to that we'll come back to it we'll
come back to it yeah if this is like yeah yeah yeah and i don't promise it you will never ever
see it but if i put myself on the line all of a sudden there's like urgency and now i'm like
either figure it out or you look like a fool. What are you choosing? Exactly. Exactly.
You got to follow through then.
You keep talking about it, right?
You don't want to be one of those people that just talked and don't do, right?
We don't like those people.
Exactly.
So we have to try our best to follow through and be consistent and be intentional, right?
So just what I was saying earlier.
Absolutely.
Thank you again, Homegrown Creations,
for being here again.
And I'm excited to get in the interview.
I just want to pay attention real quick
to the space rules that I have
for this particular show.
So for Web3 Women Wednesday,
I do a spotlight.
And then from the spotlight,
we do a Q&A from the audience to ask any questions about homegrown
creations,
what she does.
And so after the interview,
we'll lead into questions and then I can get other people,
to grab onto their mics and request to speak as well.
So I just wanted to throw that out there for space etiquette and then
homegrown creations.
Are you ready?
I'm ready.
Awesome.
Awesome.
Yay.
So we're going to run it.
We're going to,
we're going to kind of like do a repeat a little bit,
you know,
because you know,
I just want to,
because I kind of forgot.
Yeah. I forgot. All right. you know because you know i just want to because i kind of forgot yeah i forgot all right so tell me a little bit of yourself i've already given an intro uh for them and then the people on the live
i've opened up your profile so they can see you as well and i want to know how you got started
as homegrown creations and then a little bit about your origin story,
and then we'll go from there. Well, I got started, so I've always been like stoner person, like kid,
like younger person, and then I started making like, you know, you start with terrible edibles. And I did that for years.
Just baking up whatever I could come up with and taking it to a concert or festival or whatever
and getting rid of them. But, and then over the years, we kind of started focusing,
kind of started focusing on plant health and cultivation.
And as we watched all the state legalize,
we decided that we couldn't just do like grass flower.
We needed to like have another product.
And we started working on
a topical, and I continued to make edibles for my friends, and when Jay bought me a, like, a whole
mixer, like, a real professional mixer, like, all of a sudden, my products actually, like it wasn't me. It was the mixer the whole time type of moment.
And we started setting up at little events.
And before we knew it, the edibles started taking off.
And I just ran with it.
And it's just been growing and evolving for the last few years.
So that's how it started.
Amazing.
Oh, my gosh.
Homegrown.
Sorry.
Keep going. No. so that's how it started sorry keep going no and we've always just been cannabis enthusiasts
anyways like we love the flower we love hash we love like all aspects of it and um this is just
where we found our like our niche i guess, your niche. Everyone has to find their niche, right? I'm a
big believer in that. The niches are in the riches, right? So we want to help or service,
serve those niches. And I think you're doing a great service, Homegrown Creations. Tell me a
little bit about how you got connected with these Web3 degens in the space like Digi,
Joints, and Moon Queen.
How did you get connected with the Web3 crew?
How did you find out about Web3?
Because it sounds like you're very Web2, you know?
Like it doesn't strike me as a very Web3-centric individual.
So I kind of want to know how where that connection
started and and and uh how you grew it from there you know i got asked this question a couple days
ago and i was like stumped i'm like i honestly i don't know how i ended up here um i just kind of
like stumbled along and like found you know how like you find a space and you're like, oh my gosh, these are my people.
And you just kind of stick around for a while.
And I, um, so like I am very web too.
And I found that like Facebook and Instagram don't want cannabis there.
Like they don't want us there.
They don't like us.
They, um, take down accounts and posts and they punish you.
So I had a friend that pointed me towards Twitter.
And I found that my stuff wasn't getting taken down and penalized.
And I tested it for a while.
And then I found faces.
And it's great background noise when you're working.
And then Digi's on early in the morning they're a great group of people and i started to actually learn about like crypto and
nfts and all of that just like slowly listening to them and putting little things to like practice and like oh my gosh that works type of moments and
and then before I knew it I was um participating and um I helped um I sponsored like like the um
event in Miami and they put my products out to everybody, which was great. And I appreciate that. And yeah, and we just been kind of.
They've been like a great addition to like my circle and I hope I am to theirs also.
So, yeah, that's how that happened.
Oh, you definitely.
You definitely are.
We talk about you all the time.
And how amazing your baked goods especially that
seth rosin guy you know so big shout out to seth in this space by the way uh but uh fam uh homegrown
creations i want to know like um there's all these different social media platforms why did
you choose twitter as your focus or were you also on facebook and
instagram and trying to connect with communities there like how did how was that journey like that
journey of connecting i really like was hanging out in um only because uh i think that's just
where it started i was hanging hanging out on like Facebook.
Yeah.
Like little groups.
Yeah. Like cannabis groups and learning how to grow and learning other people's techniques and doing all of that.
The Web 3 thing was I was just over here poking around looking for the same things.
And I actually didn't start Homegrown Creations until I was on Twitter for like maybe like a year.
So this is where I first opened like an account for Homegrown Creations.
And I saw like an opportunity here.
I don't know if anyone knows, but there's a lot of cannabis on those other sites that are just literally competing with each other.
And I don't have as much of that over here.
And I found that crypto, like you all had a need or like I could fill a space in the space.
Like there was a spot for me there so um I just kind of you
know like when you find your people you find something's working for you you just kind of
keep leaning in and um that's what I do anyway so I've just been leaning in and this is just where
I ended up spending most of my time this is where I found like my best opportunities
too so I um I got to be a sponsor for Redman's um um the gaming tournament the free to the green
gaming tournament twice and I would have never found that on those other platforms it would
have been like a lottery and a contest and some nonsense and over here i just happened to meet like the right
people that got me connected with the right people and i got in and you know what i mean
awesome yeah i totally get that homegrown christians definitely a big shout out to everyone
just rocking up in the space we We're doing Web3 Women Wednesday.
Make sure you are retweeting the space,
tagging a few friends, bookmarking, liking.
We definitely want to support great, amazing women
doing just amazing work in Web3.
And this is Homegrown Creations.
She is filling a need with the Web3 artist
in the space with her amazing gourmet goods i should
say i've ordered your product a few times now no bias though homegrown creations but how is your
baked goods so much better than all the other edibles and different baked goods i've had in
the past um what what is your secret i think all really, really want to know this.
I don't know that I'm better.
I know that I have any complaints.
Well, that's somebody else deciding that.
True, true.
I didn't say it.
But you applied.
You applied, though, right?
Absolutely.
They saw how valuable your baked goods were.
Oh, yes.
And the word spread rapidly among the planes.
And the word was good.
Yes, the word was good.
316.
The key to being good is being humble.
No, I think.
Knowing there's improvement there.
Humble brag, humble brag.
Anyway, that was a question, Homegrown.
Sorry, I'll shut up.
Was it a question?
Can you repeat the question?
Yeah, how are your baked goods so amazingly awesome?
That's basically it.
What's the super secret ingredient we need to know?
Love? I, you know, I don't know. I don't know because I'm not comparing them to others.
To make them with love.
We have a closed loop system that I'm convinced it's helping.
So we are growing everything.
And then we process everything ourselves.
So we're pressing our own live rosin.
We are infusing our own oils.
And then I am creating everything from scratch so there's no like
my bad sorry my bad no that was me
i muted everyone by accident i'm actually surprised i haven't like exited the space
by accident yet. I know, right? So I know if that happens, I'll be right back.
Her secret ingredient is love and she pays close attention to what she's doing.
Her food is fantastic, man.
Oh, you're the best, Michelle.
Awesome.
You don't know how hard it is for me to hide my treats from you, your treats from me.
You know, I keep them hidden so I won't, like, dive into the box all the time.
Those cheeses are Saturday night treats only, man.
That's amazing.
But Homegrown Creations, that was a question.
You kind of answered it, I guess.
However, I want to know, you won six awards.
You're award-winning six times, all right?
So talk us through about that process.
What awards specifically?
What did you enter?
How prestigious, that's a word, right?
Yeah, that word.
How was it?
That word.
That word. prestigious that's a word right yeah that word how was it that word that word um so i i so in new york the i'm gonna answer our homes sporadically in new york the um event i entered
is with the i want to say this year will be their 29th annual um harvest or harvest and freedom festival freedom fair i'm probably botching it all up but
um like old hippies have been running this cannabis festival all over new york every year
go somewhere else for the back the past like 25 years i want to say maybe longer maybe somebody else was holding it before them but
anyways um i saw i they have edibles contest part of the festival every year just like every year
they go for like the um the cannabis cup so like every year weed goes up for like who's growing
the best weed and whatnot edibles get their same like a
smaller little like contest on the side and one year the the um into my first year of actually
making edibles seriously um I decided to enter a bread that I had been making that I kind of perfected at that point and I won second place and that made me
like it like turned on a competitiveness in me that I didn't know I had but I found myself in a
in a market where everyone wanted to make edibles so it was good for me to at least try to see where I'm like leveling in the industry locally.
So I entered the second year and we won overall and best cookie with our fudge rounds, which are made with Belgian chocolate and live rosin.
And they're gluten free and they're freaking amazing.
And they're gluten-free and they're freaking amazing.
They're delicious.
So, and then after that, the next year, I entered again and we won with our pistachio cookie.
But we also took a trophy for my pumpkin spice latte mix.
So, I found the recipe on Starbucks for their, um, the simple syrup they use for the
pumpkin spice lattes. And I made it with live rosin and that's actually pretty banging too.
And then, uh, and we took for that one. So, and then our other, um, wins we are for cannabis
are for our flower that we grow. So, yeah wow but that's and and it's just
like it builds and like you end up like chasing like now i've got to defend it so you know what
i mean so and so but yeah and um the contest that i keep entering even though it's run like a bunch of hippies are
doing it and it's a mess it actually carries weight in our um local industry because it's
been it's a long time known festival that's been putting on these it's by people that are very cannabis um connected so
there's that um i don't know did i miss any other of the parts of that question
no no so you do more than good yeah we um so we um we grow so we grow um everything in living soil and we use Korean natural gardening techniques.
And we grow very, very good weed.
Like our weed's really good.
And that's kind of where it started. The only reason that we aren't running with our craft cannabis full-time is because
there's a lot of weed out there. And people don't, like, there's a part of the market that
doesn't, most of the market doesn't want to pay for the craft practice. And it's just the edibles
are more of a marketable product. So we just take the weed and turn it into edibles
that's why the edibles are so good it's because it's made with like the best weed
but that makes sense that makes sense yeah well but we took so we took um a battle of the buds event with our super silver haze cross of the red congolese which is
um it actually was given to us because i was looking for something to help me with my adhd
in the morning so it's less like a ping pong ball and i could finish projects not just start them
and it's actually amazing it's my daily like I smoke it every day
in the morning with my coffee and it helps me um and then and then our coffee let's go absolutely
that's exactly how you should start every day a little little medicine, a little coffee. And then our other win was for, which was a Mother's Day event.
We won with our pink sarts, which is a grape gas crossed with a menthol.
And we got our hands on a breeder's cut.
And this thing has just been like one of our favorite plants to grow since we got it.
And it was the first plant that made me realize there's a difference between like really good like top of the line genetics.
And then there's like practice plant.
And we've just been kind of focusing on what we put in the garden and we keep trying out new
genetics and we um we just cycle them out as we like make decisions about them so like right now
we um we've got a sour vengeance which i've got here offline from Growing Paint. But this is a super sour with a sour diesel with an East Coast sour diesel.
And the thing is amazing.
Like this is one of our new favorite plants.
Wow, that sounds amazing.
Like we've been hiding it from each other.
Oh, for real.
Wow.
So you've got the flour.
You've got the baked goods.
But you also do other things like teas and whatnot, right?
Like with the baked goods. So what other like foods and drinks do you include?
So we do, for a drinkable, we do a hot loose leaf tea that I made meltable candy crystals that are 10 milligrams for each tea bag which are
amazing and then also we do an iced tea which we use a really high quality loose leaf tea got lots
of dried fruit and stuff in it and we um infuse it with live rosin and we sweeten it with local raw honey and agave to keep the flavors really mellow and delicious.
And so it doesn't have like that bitter or weird cannabis flavor in it.
And it goes down really smooth like uh like like any like iced tea should i don't know like a
arizona iced tea or something that sounds so and oh my gosh sorry continue they're so delicious
that's actually one of um that we made that for a summer and we were shocked at how well it did
even so we make lots of teas now for the summertime
and then um I make like lollipops and chocolate um we use good imported Belgian chocolate like
European chocolate to um make our live raws and chocolates in it um it makes them like extra
delicious and I try to um use like the best quality ingredients I can find.
And I've been making bubble gum. So the bubble gum is so cool. It's 20 milligrams, live rosin.
And it chews really well. And you can blow big old fat bubbles or the little snappy bubbles.
and you can blow big old fat bubbles or the little snappy bubbles.
And it works really quickly.
It's absorbing sublingually through your cheeks
and working really well for pain.
And I'm really psyched about it.
I wasn't sure if I could pull it off, and I did.
And then it came out awesome and
it's working really well so oh my gosh you got me excited about bubble gum homegrown creations like
seriously i take my gum uh i take my gum seriously like uh there's this brand called neuro right and
neuro helps with energy and focus it's actually actually caffeinated bubblegum, natural caffeine.
It's got vitamin B12, L-thinin. I'm looking at the package right now.
We were actually just talking about good bubblegum in this space with Crypto Stoner a few weeks back.
and he's also on a bubblegum journey he wants to create a certain bubblegum that's cannabis
And he's also on a bubblegum journey.
infused but infused with other natural remedies and he wants to promote that yeah and he wants
to create it package it and with his brand and then share it and like set up a like a shopify
store or whatever so uh it's so interesting and then
yeah he threw out this brand called neuro you have to check them out but i'm thinking homegrown
creations if you do the branding and packaging right you could definitely start a branded
cannabis infused bubble gum that could take off you know what i did so So, um, so Digi Blunts made me a special, like an honorary special blunt.
And I just printed out a bunch of stickers of it.
So I can use it as my bubble gum labeling here.
I'll put it down in the chat.
I love, I love my, my homegrown creation blunt.
Yeah.
Go for it in the comments.
Up in the Jumbotron, this is all about you today, Homegrown Creations.
When three women Wednesdays.
Make sure you guys are liking and tagging a few friends in the comments, retweeting the space.
I see you guys over in the arena.
What is going on?
We are simulcasting also on the live stream on x and on kick so yeah it is
all good in here we got dj dave up here in the speaker panel what is up dj dave didn't say hi
to you earlier we're almost at the top of the hour guys we got tricky budd down there, as well as Solo Breezy. What's going on, fam?
Our KDN, KT McGee, and Buzz420.
Make sure everyone is following everyone down there in spaces.
And then we've got at least 10 or 15 people over on the live stream.
Not bad altogether, about 30, 40 plus, give or take.
I don't even know how many are on kick, to be honest.
I don't see those
numbers until after the show has ended but i do get the emails and the emails on the restring say
that i get like between 30 to 40 to 50 people so given take homegrown creation someone is definitely
listening to our spaces so thank you again for being up here and supporting and just being a part of CryptoFam Radio's programming.
This is really fun.
So thanks for taking it back.
But anyway, about this bubble gum, I'm serious about it.
You'll have to send me a pack or something.
Maybe I could do like a sponsored giveaway.
I don't know how that would work.
But if it is for sale, we'll definitely have to get some because I'm all about the gum.
I've actually, and you know what, Homegrown Creations, I've noticed something with a way that not just how I communicate, but like when I'm not talking.
Like I notice I get this like, I don't know what it's called, but I just need to be doing something with my mouth.
And so when I'm chewing, it also helps me, helps, helps me think better in this space and also helps me just like calm down.
Like it's almost a stress reliever.
And so I think gum has some serious attributes that can help you in your personal development and self-improvement.
And, you know, I can safely say it helps me stop biting my nails, too.
That's one of the things that I have for the longest time had a hard time.
And then also the restless jaw and then biting down on my on my teeth itself, right? Like it damages the teeth over
time. But anyway, to say that, yeah, gum has saved my life. Gum has saved my teeth and my fingers,
fam. I love bubble gum, but just imagine cannabis infused. If you could create like a concoction
with certain strands, I'm thinking homegrown creations, like a sativa one that helps you like focus and get shit done, infused gum, that could be a winner, right? I think that could be a winner.
And if you could offer different flavors, like you could do, oh, you want a chill gum. So I'll
give you an indica focused one versus the sativa one gets you more, you know, locked in and focused
and you have to complete, or let's say they have a gum for
working out or exercising, right? Like, um, I think that would be interesting as well for the
workout exercise or a post-work workout gum too. I have so many ideas, so many ideas,
homegrown creations, but, uh, yeah, I'm going to have to get some of that bubble gum anyway did you have
anything else you wanted to add to that homegrown creations this is kind of like your time so
i just don't want to take that away from you i'm kind of just brainstorming by myself right now
i'm listening to it all like i appreciate it i take it all
awesome so you do the gum the the tea. Are you going to be
at NFT NYC? Are we going to be you?
I am. You're going to have a booth?
Oh my gosh.
I have to be there. I have to support you.
Are you going to be with the DigiJoints or where are you going to be?
That's the
plan. At least that's my plan.
Okay.
With Digis
and the Pigeons in New York and everybody else that's involved.
Yeah.
At the bodega.
At the bodega.
Is that what it's?
I don't know that it's called a bodega.
It sounds fancy.
Yeah.
It sounds so fancy.
Sounds like you've moved up on the ground. i'm excited about that we were talking about um choco tacos and how we're
gonna get them to the um to new york city i'm only a couple hours away so they just need i just need
like freezer space for the afternoon it's kind of what it sounds like
Freezer space
Oh I see
For Choco Tacos
Yeah
With us for the day
So we can store the Choco Tacos
Do you know
You can buy like a hundred buck
Freezer and use a generator
And just plug it in
Well I was actually
Just looking on Amazon too
And they're a couple hundred dollars
Maybe I can get one of the guys
To like sponsor me for real
Who knows
There you go
Wait wait I thought
DigiJoints was sponsoring you guys.
Well, I think I'm sponsoring him.
Oh, okay. Is that how it works? Okay. I don't know with these partners.
Technically, technically, he's the one with the spot and I have to come in with as a sponsor to get space at his spot.
sponsor to get space at his spot.
So, but I'm hoping there's enough excitement about the Choco Tacos that they help me come
up with a way to get them there intact on a summer afternoon.
What are Choco Tacos again?
Can you remind us?
Are those sweet?
So, a Choco Taco, you used to be able to get them on the ice cream shock
and it's just a um like a waffle cone shaped like a taco filled with chocolate or with vanilla ice
cream that's got chocolate fudge swirls and then it's covered with chocolate and peanuts i believe
and there used to be like klondike used to make them so picture like a
klondike bar but with the taco shell and right and um they stopped making them years ago but
there's a whole bunch of us that like got one off the ice cream truck all the time so they're one of
those nostalgic things just like like the little
debbie stuff that i make right that makes sense that makes sense awesome amazing well it's me
when i do these um these treats it's less of convincing people that it's delicious and more
of people like you know like they're buying what their feels like you know
so like they feel like like like um like home like like this like nostalgic over those treats
and then they're infused and it makes it like 10 times better. I feel like Little Debbie would have had a smile
if she'd had your fudge round.
That's awesome.
I hope so.
I hope I did her proud.
Oh, I'm sure you did.
Yeah.
Wanted to welcome Arcadian
up to the speaker panel.
I see you, Arcadian.
GMGM, happy, happy Wednesday. web3 women wednesday how's it going
happy wednesday man happy wednesday love the room love the chat i love the work especially gourmet
stuff being made at home um you know it's it's a right it's a nice pull out of this digital crazy I've only got one question for Homegrown Creations
Something that's
Because I mean this is what you do
And you've done it for years
Six awards
Doesn't come easy
But I've got one question for you
What question is it that you would
Really want someone to ask you
In a public space what's that one
question that you would that you've been thinking about the one that keeps you awake
at night and you're hoping that somebody's gonna ask that question could you maybe let me know what
that is it might be this one um
yeah that's that's actually a hard question.
I was, um, I think he asked all the questions.
Um, I totally did not ask all the questions, homegrown.
I still have lots of other questions.
That one nagging question you want someone to ask you,
but you've never had the chance to until now.
That one question that keeps you up late at night.
I don't know that I have that question.
That's an answer, too, I guess.
Like, if you don't know, you don't know.
You know, that's fair.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I feel like when I talk about my edibles,
the parts that don't come across clearly are that we process everything ourselves and it's done very
organically and then we make everything from scratch I in fact prep like my
like my fruits and stuff from like raw fruit and I bake everything down and, um, and I don't skip corners and we,
we do our best to make sure everything tastes the way it's supposed to taste and not taste like,
like crappy edibles is like the ultimate goal. Like if it tastes like, like a funky weed,
I won't even put it out.
We'll go back and we'll try again.
But yeah, that's, I don't know.
Yep, that's what I got.
That works for me.
What about you, Arcadian?
Yeah, look, that's the answer that somebody has that can only love what they do and they do it because they love doing it that's someone's answer you know most of the
builders out in web 3 are going to be kept awake at night with tons of questions and answers and
hoping people will ask them these questions and looking down the line the fact that you've just
you've answered it really like you
don't you don't need to care about what people ask because you just enjoy what you do and that's a
good answer thank you awesome absolutely love it guys we're gonna take a short break here real quick. We're going to bring to you some DigiBeats music.
You guys haven't heard.
We are part of the DigiBeats syndicate.
We are playing tunes from these Web3 musicians in this.
It's a Thanos track for you guys.
We're going gonna keep it
real smooth

Welcome back, fam. It's CryptoFam Radio.
Web3 Women Wednesday, episode 57.
Web3 Women Wednesday, episode 57.
I am here with Homegrown Creations.
We are spotlighting her for Web3 Women.
I'm excited to get back to the interview.
I want to ask the audience,
if you have a burning question for Homegrown Creations,
request that mic.
Put your hand up and we'll get to you in between our Q&A time as well.
We're definitely running this space for another hour, Homegrown.
I'm excited.
How are you feeling?
I'm good.
I'm ready.
Awesome.
Awesome.
Love it.
Thank you so much again for coming back and being interviewed for Take Two,
talking about your incredible gourmet goods.
So I want to hear what is your business plan one year from now or maybe two years from now
because you're kind of Web3, but you're kind of not.
You're like a traditional business right so do you have some sort of business plan or like future like one year two year five year goal do you do anything like that if you do i would love
to hear some of your future plans when it comes to uh building your business well the okay so like the end goal the big goal is to be licensed and have a brick and mortar and be
um be a fully functioning bakery edible bakery um the net over the next few years, I'm just focusing on growth and refining my brand.
And we're kind of like waiting out the process here in New York because it started very shaky.
And they were asking too much of businesses to, at least for us, like we're not a million dollar business we can't support some
of the things that they want us to do um financially so we're just kind of waiting
it out and seeing how like they fix some of that so um us our smaller businesses um do it and um and like yeah and like up till now I've just this is it's been like a slow like progression
like I keep like tweaking little things and um improving on things and um I call it leveling up
like every few months I feel like I leveled up in something. And going at this pace, I've managed to not miss anything major except for the licensing part.
But I am registered with the state agriculture department as a home processor for, um, for like the baked goods
that you find at the farmer's market. So like some of within reason, some of it, um, is totally
legal to do at home. And I got all that paperwork. It's just the cannabis part. So, um, yeah, I just,
at this point, we're just slowly building up what we've been doing and refining skills.
And it possibly might be that I end up in a real brick and more bakery as a bakery here over the next couple of years before I end up with the edible thing.
edible thing but um we're just kind of going with it being flexible um try not to big make too big
But we're just kind of going with it, being flexible.
plans so like they're um achievable at this point and like i said i've never been able to build
anything like in my whole i'm like 40 something so like this is the first thing that I've actually built that feels like it's dirty.
So I'm just trying to do it thoughtfully with like make sure like there's real reasons why we're getting into things before we jump this time around.
Definitely, definitely.
I get that homegrown.
I really respect that. Another question popped in my head as you were answering, what other marketing strategies do you implement in your business?
What other outreach besides Twitter, besides spaces and Web3D gens, what other target markets are you looking at to expand and to build your gourmet big good business in the state of New York?
Yeah, you're in New York.
Yeah, we're in New York.
So every weekend we go to, we have two cannabis markets that we work with.
One of them is in Syracuse, and it's an actual, like, cannabis club where people pay dues, and we do expos every other week.
And I'm their only edibles purveyor on site right now at the moment.
And then they have, and, like, all the cannabis that comes into that event is like locally grown and organic.
And that's actually where my friend who puts on the Battle of the Buds, that's where its home base is for that contest.
for that contest. And then they also are part with another, I don't know what to call it up
there, but another type of situation like our club up at the Indian Reservation towards Buffalo.
So it's a pretty big event that way but um yeah so that home base is
right there and then we do another um cannabis like farmer's market in downtown Ithaca every
weekend and um we've been building a clientele through there we um the cool thing about Ithaca is we, we're just blocks away from Cornell. So a lot of our stuff is going to like Cornell students, they're doing a lot of cannabis classes there. And it's cool to see like, like, it's cool to watch like students put your stuff through testing and you like like ask like really like sciency questions
when we're at that event and um it's it's and we've got lucky to find like two two uh in real
life events that are comfortable and that we're able to like deal with a nice clientele a lot of them are kind of like your grimy flea market
and these are these are nice situations that we're in right now so um yeah so that's what we do
outside of and then and then throughout the week i do all my baking and i'm on here and I listen to bases and learn about crypto and sell some edibles and get ready for my weekends.
And the weekends, we're super busy.
Like a lot of the times we're separated.
So I'll be up in Syracuse while you'll be in Ithaca.
And we live a few hours away.
So we try to make the most of our time out there.
So on the weekends, you do the flea markets, correct?
Yep, on the weekend. Well, the canna market.
Okay, the farmer's markets? Are they markets or do they call them canna markets?
Canna markets? Yep, it's a cannabis market.
When you walk in the door, there's a bunch of tables set up with
either jars of weed or hash or some plants.
Well, right now we're in clone month of May.
So everyone buys their starters right now so they can have them in the ground at least by May.
Well, the earliest May 15th.
So the whole month of May,
we're gonna have baby plants on all of our tables
in the room, like everyone's got starters.
So yeah, and you find all kinds of things at these places.
And hold on one second,
my dog's like begging me for something.
You're good home Christians uh it's so funny uh because I live in a completely different state with different rules and regulations especially when it comes to cannabis
and so Florida you know it's it's very opposite of New York. And we have farmer's markets, but we don't have canna markets.
That's amazing.
So, yeah, super foreign to me.
If I ever do make it up for NFT and I see anyone want to sponsor CryptoFam Radio,
hit me up in the DMs.
I want to go.
I'll definitely sponsor your biz and get my ticket up there because, yeah,
I got to check out these canny markets
over with homegrown creations that sounds like a plan just imagine the interviews from that
man that would be amazing homegrown but um i'll probably be too busy doing fnyc stuff all weekend
so i forget how long the event is i think it's like three or four days
or whatever but still um i will be busy i've never been to new york city before either it would
definitely be an adventure of the life of my lifetime anyway so um yeah i'd love to hear more
about your flower itself.
I didn't really talk much about that.
You said you guys got started in cannabis with your own flowers.
And then from your flowers, they slowly translate into your resin that you make now for your baked goods, right?
And so I guess walk me back.
I'd love to talk a little more about what makes
your flour so special and um maybe talk about a little about properties and whatnot and um
and what makes uh yeah what what makes it so good uh what makes the flowers so good yes to be honest it's just organic compost
oh really like well if you um so i'll get nerdy for a second cannabis plants and um hemp plants
are bioaccumulative plants so they're the type of plant that will get real deep into the soil and absorb all of everything that's in there.
So they use hemp plants to clean super fun sites like toxic spills, radiation.
um so your cannabis plant's going to do the same thing so if you're growing it in salt and in
So your cannabis plant's going to do the same thing.
chemicals that's all it's eating that's then it's just going to pull all that stuff out of your soil
heavy metals anything gross um and they use those plants to like cleanse the land so it's clean and usable again so um you
have to look at your like what you're gonna consume the same way and actually
your vegetables are the same thing like the more you use like the what do they
call them the like the more you use like store brand fertilizers and stuff the
less um the less your plants are getting about they're not getting like the balanced soil type
of like meal and um your cannabis plants are going to absorb all of the yuck out of those fertilizers. And a lot of cannabis has grown in just like AB solution,
like bottles. A lot of people use bottles. Bottles aren't good for your plant. So we found,
so we went from using the bottles like everyone else, because that's how you grow weed,
because that's how you grow weed, and like hydro and whatnot, and I had flour that I was so proud
of growing, like it was the nicest flour that I had ever grown, and we did everything perfect,
and my friend looked at me after she smoked it, and she's like, oh, I can taste the chemical,
and I kind of was heartbroken, and she gave me the recipes they were using.
And she was growing in Oregon. And she's been doing it organically for all these years. And
we started to put it to practice. And we noticed like every time we made a change,
the better the weed was taste. Like all the tarps were starting to show up.
weed was taste like all the tarps were starting to show up she the plants were showing its full
potential and um when we started then I started building our soil from scratch and um and I
started like making my own ferments and making sure that like we break down everything so it's
available for the plant and everything started to like show full expressions
of like everything it's supposed to be and not just like bits and pieces and this is what makes
your cannabis taste good or all the other micronutrients and um other pieces that they're
not getting from those other brands that's what makes them express all those
terpenes and whatnot so like guano um back guano is amazing for your plants but nobody wants to
deal with it because it stinks and um yeah so we found over like the course of maybe like six years
trans like transitioning and doing like little bits because
if you do too much the plant like gets angry so you do little bits and little changes and we um
transitioned our whole garden to being the way it is now and we get um we get lots of compliments on our flour, and it's very different from, like, the flour that you would get from, like, I don't know how to explain it.
Like, you get from a dispensary or whatnot.
So, yeah, that's what's different.
It's organics.
Like, just like your food, everything tastes better when it's organic.
That's true. Yeah. Big facts. Big facts, fam.
So I want to talk more about your contributions to Web3.
And I'd love to hear more about how you're slowly moving your Web2 business to Web3 as well, or it looks like it,
moving your Web2 business to Web3 as well, or it looks like it,
or you're starting to make that transition,
or what your experience has been in Web3 since we are crypto family over here.
We talk a lot about crypto and other blockchains,
but I'd love to hear just kind of how that transition is going for you.
It's been interesting um and and i've gotten a lot
of help from the communities that i'm in like transitioning and like i wouldn't have been able
to do it on my own i've gotten a lot of help and advice from the communities I spend time with.
And like Dave and Tricky and everyone.
And in the Digi crew.
And I just, I don't see me like starting like a project myself at least anytime soon.
myself at least anytime soon but um as far as a vendor on web 3 um um that's kind of what i
see as or like a small store like um and with the digicrew um i guess i have um the availability to be on the metaverse.
See, I still don't even know what half of this stuff is.
It's been a slow transition.
And like I said, with support of my communities,
slowly learning what everything is
and where my place is out here.
Yes, fam.
It definitely takes time, Homegrown.
So yeah, I totally am there right with you.
And yeah, it's just a little bit goes a long way.
Staying consistent, being in this space,
sharing Alpha with each other every single day.
Definitely, definitely.
I wanted to welcome, we got Solo Breezy up here, a speaker.
What's going on?
Solo, got a question for Homegrown Creations?
Absolutely.
First things first, can you hear me?
Yes, we can hear you, fam.
Take it away.
All right. And first thing, second thing I want to say, grand rising to this wonderful space and shout out to everybody in the room. Much appreciated.
Homegrown, a.k.a. Christy, thank you so much for this interview. I'm so glad I'm learning so much about you.
My question for you is not about your business or anything like that.
It's a simple question. Why do you love smoking weed and how does it help you at the end of the
day? And that's my question. That's all I want to ask you. Oh, there's so many reasons why.
I'm pretty sure that cannabis is medicine for everybody first. If you find yourself smoking
cannabis every day, it's more than like you're trying to get high. But, um, I smoke because I'm
like, so my ADHD, let's start with my ADHD. I'm like a ping pong ball. And if I can't get focused and like motivated at the
same time, like I waste whole days. So, um, it helps me in the morning. Like I found like specific
cannabinoids and terpenes to help me in the morning. And then beyond that, it helps with pain. So I create, so we didn't even talk about my topical.
I create a topical and I use that every day.
And that helps with pain.
And smoking in general just brings me joy.
It makes me happy.
And you want to be happy all day.
So if you have the opportunity to do that you should
um and that's why i smoke every day
amen i like that answer and then um my last question for you is what do you love about
the cannabis community um what's something that you love
that people don't notice
as long as you've been in the game for?
And that's all my questions I have for you today.
What do I love about the cannabis community?
For one,
mostly that it found itself
to be like a separated community.
But other than that, it's constant sharing of like information and knowledge that you haven't been able to get in a book until very recently.
And passing of like techniques and passing of like plant science.
And like there's so much information and so much learning and knowledge just being passed around in the cannabis community.
Just because it's being kept from us in the first place.
I love that.
I love just like the freely sharing of it.
That's why.
But then, and then it's a community.
And it's nice to be part of community.
People aren't supposed to be all by themselves, stuck on an island.
So, that's my answer.
I love you, Solo.
You're the freaking best.
Oh, thank you so much. I'll go down back to listening. Thank you so much for having me up here.
You can stay speaker if you want, Solo. Appreciate you coming up, asking your questions. If anyone
else has questions for Homegrown Creations creations we are down to the last 30
minutes or this space gets rugged intently so yeah very excited about that homegrown creations
glad you caught that i'm so funny for real uh this has been an amazing interview so far, Homegrown.
I've got a few more questions.
Of course, on my end, I want to hear more about this ointment or this topical solution
you speak of.
You said we haven't talked about that much.
I want to hear more about skincare, skincare routines, because that's important, you know.
So if this does help my skin become a little more, what do you call it, not as dry, not as flaky, I'm all ears about that.
But yeah, please, I'd love to know more about your topical solutions.
So I make just one topical at this point.
So I make just one topical at this point.
A few years ago, and I've been working on it for like I tweak the recipe every time I make it.
But a few years ago, a co-worker of my partner's, he was working in a meat department.
and in the meat room where you cut meat, it's really cold in there.
And in the meat room where you cut meat, it's really cold in there.
And he found the old guy running his hands under hot water
and putting them on like warm surfaces.
And I got asked to see if I could try to make a topical.
So cannabis as a topical will not give you like the psychoactive effects. It doesn't get you high, but it literally takes
away pain and inflammation. Apparently. And I had no idea until I started that.
And I've been messing around with cannabis, like, like intimately for years. So I made like one and it kind of worked. And then I kind of started infusing other medicinal herbs in the grape seed oil I was making, using.
So that made it more supportive and it worked a little bit better.
And then I changed it to live rosin. And live rosin apparently is the best full spectrum that we can make at this point.
Because you're getting all the fats and the lipids and other parts of the plant that you can't get when you're doing like a solvent wash.
Because you're squeezing it out of there.
You're getting like bits that you don't get otherwise and um it penetrated like pain really really like deep and
really well and it lasted a long time so like into like bone pain and like joint pain muscle pain. And I kind of refined all the medicinal herbs that I use. So in conjunction
with the live rosin that helps treat pain really well and inflammation really well,
I added a bunch of other herbs to it that also treat inflammation and pain really well, but also help soothe skin
irritations like psoriasis and eczema and help heal like abrasions and whatnot. And it made it It's like an all-purpose, like, cane cream. Well, like salve.
It's like an oil rub.
But it's kind of all-purpose.
And you can use it from your sinuses.
You know, you get your allergy attacks, like, a couple times a year.
Sinus headaches and pressure headaches and migraines.
And it's been treating all kinds of stuff at this point.
Do you need to go out?
I don't know what else you're asking for right now.
No, that's good.
That was definitely great.
No, I'm sorry.
My dog is like, she's got me walking around in circles behind her.
I'm like, what do you need?
I'm just driving over here.
I'm sorry.
You're good.
I apologize.
I totally need to go out homegrown.
I've been stuck inside way too long.
Get some sun, stretch your legs.
But yeah, no, so the tropical now works like almost on contact and within moments for like real deep pain.
And it lasts a few hours.
It works better and faster than Tylenol and like a leave combined.
And I use like all food grade organic ingredients for it.
It's only made out of grapeseed oil and castor oil and cocoa butter and beeswax rubs right into your skin.
It doesn't leave you greasy.
And it relieves all that ails you.
I'm not going to say it heals anything, but it relieves pain.
It at least makes the symptoms tolerable.
A lot of people would love that. It relieves pain. That's for sure. A lot of people are in pain.
Absolutely. And it's great for people with chronic issues that are constantly taking
pharmaceuticals. It's easier on your body. And like I said, it doesn't, um, doesn't break that
skin blood barrier. So it never gets like into your system. It doesn't like interfere with
interfere in medicines unless like you have one of the, like there's, um, there's a couple like
heart medicines that people worry about, but beyond that, it's pretty safe and like grandma would never know
it's made out of cannabis type of thing and as long as you don't eat it
exactly fam yeah um i'm curious homegrown why don't you have a website why don't we store that we could just buy and you can just ship out whenever i want to know
stoney's has one i know we're in different states and whatnot but i feel like you should be able to
have at least your own website maybe you just haven't gotten making one you know i want to know about that so for real i am not uh tech savvy and my um it's like folding laundry
like trying to set up this website and i can't um i can't like gift hat like i make edibles and i'm
really good with my hands and that's fun to me but the website is overwhelming and um it seems unattainable
every time i i need somebody like i'm a child and teach me how to do this
it's not that hard i promise you i used to run a photography business. I had to know myself how to create a website on WordPress.
It wasn't that hard to set up a Shopify account.
Just imagine more sales, the more of the sales you would receive by having a website, a place that we're able to go.
That we're able to know.
And like this curated, you know, this facing forward, beautiful display of every single one of your baked goods.
I could see it right now.
It would be so aesthetically pleasing.
It would be so you, so New York.
It would be screaming your brand.
We should definitely talk in the DMs about it.
Homegrown Creations.
I want to make sure people are seeing and promoting you and having a website is definitely the first step, especially if you want those online sales.
You know, like that's a mic drop right there, guys, if I've ever seen it.
You just got to have that presence.
Social media is good.
Don't get me wrong.
But that's just the first step.
But just to own something, right?
That's what comes back to your website.
Because your website is you, right?
You are your heart, soul, sweat, and tears on building that.
Facebook can't take that away from you.
Twitter can't take that away from you.
You know what I'm saying?
So having a website that you can build and slowly build for yourself that represents
your business, who you are as a person, a personal brand, that's amazing.
You know, that's like those bootstrap stories, right?
Like building yourself up with your bootstraps and having your community around you to support you.
So we're definitely part of your community, Homegrown Creations, and we definitely want
to help you with that.
Like I said before, I've done a lot of websites in the past.
I've helped out a marketing agency, a creative agency with some website stuff.
And yeah, it's fun.
You know, I've done a lot of copywriting with them as well, actually.
But really, if we think about it, websites all have just what?
Images, text, design, and maybe a video, all right?
So you distill it into three parts, right?
You got images, you got text, and then you have maybe a welcome video or something like that.
And you can, with AI, Homegrown Creations, you can do a lot of that without even taking a single photo or doing a video.
You could probably do a lot of it through AI.
You can definitely create the text that you want to say through AI.
You could do it literally less than a day.
It's that easy, homegrown.
And I'll help you through it.
It's all good.
I got you.
Maybe you can just, you know, in exchange, send me some bubble gum and it'll be fine.
I got you.
That's easy.
I can send bubble gum.
I'll show you step by step.
I'll be just like Rick Starr.
He does these.
All right.
Big shout out to Rick Starr from the Green Pill Collective, which Crypto Fam Radio is a part of.
But the Green Pill Collective is run by Rick Starr.
He does these AI tutorial live streams every Monday, right?
So, and he walks people through it.
Like he's so patient, you know?
And I'm like, I can learn a lot from this guy, right?
Like he's like individually asking people, okay, did you do it?
Did you do the editing that I told you?
You know, it's so funny.
But anyway, it's not that hard, homegrown creations.
I know you can do it.
You're super smart.
Your intellect is off the charts, especially when it comes to your baked goods.
But real quick, I know we only have about 20 minutes to go,
but I want to hear more of your origin story about why you're so attracted to
baking goods. I know in some areas of the world, that's like, it's a lost art. And so tell me about,
you say you love using your hands to make baked goods. This was probably before you got into
cannabis. How did you start cooking and what made you so attracted to
continuing that journey? Like, I guess, pushing towards that passion, right? Were you, were you
seeing yourself as like this, the steward type of like big good specialist or like, was it just
something you grew up with like what was your love
for baking that's my question um mostly like so um my my grandparents both of them were like
from italy like they um immigrated here when they were 17 and my um I was the first grandkid and my mother was really young so I ended
up with my grandmother all the time like till I was probably eight and I'm pretty sure she kept me
like in the kitchen on a stool the whole time to keep me busy and um I did. And she like it was and she was so serious about it.
We had two kitchens. One was in the basement so we could get really messy. That's where like all
the real stuff happened. And then, yeah, as a mom, I just did, like, I always, like, did the, like, cakes.
I've always, my kids always had, like, a homemade birthday cake.
And I've always made cookies and whatnot.
And it's, you know how, like, you have little, like, hobbies that bring you joy that you like doing?
And that's kind of, and it's always been, it's always been like that.
And when I got the mixer, which is kind of goofy, but I swear, like, I was, I make stuff all the time.
of goofy but I swear like I was I make stuff all the time it comes out mediocre and I move on and
um you know you just you're it you'll you do it because you like it not because it's beautiful
and um when I got this mixer and everything started coming out like professional looking
I like and I was able to like sell like the neighborhood Bob Thurse breads on Christmas and Thanksgiving in one year.
I was like, wow, maybe like there's something to this.
And that's just and I just and then I really like it broke out all my grandmother's old recipes and stuff and it just so yeah it's inspired from like family and um and just over
the years and just adding to your skill set at that like you see stuff online and like all the
little like the youtube videos and like instagram videos of watching like professionals do it and when it makes you like, I wonder if I could do that.
And so that's where it all is.
I don't have any schooling or anything like that.
Yo, you didn't go to chef school?
No, not at all.
You learned all by yourself, all by your lonesome, just over time, practice, practice, practice.
Absolutely.
I'm curious, who do you look up to in the baking world?
Who do you admire?
Are there any, like, top chefs?
I guess you call them chefs, right bait bakeries no no bait bakers
bakers or that is that politically correct i don't know that i have any i don't even to be
honest i don't even really follow anybody specifically and it would probably be like a European one. So I find myself not following very many American, like I do like pie crust and whatnot.
But if I want like a really skilled recipe, I go right for like French, Mexican, European in general, they just, they still, they still teach those skills, like the real pastry chefs and whatnot.
I had to like take, I took a course to learn how to pour chocolate properly online.
So I did have a little bit of school.
I lied.
Hey, that takes work. That definitely takes work for sure. Absolutely. But
yeah, so I find myself just looking up something specific I want to try and then picking whoever
looks the most confident doing it and watching them do it till it's done awesome I absolutely love that that's so good yeah I think
many times well I feel like we do have our little inspirations right it could be our family
it could be uh famous you know people in certain uh spaces in certain places of of you know whatever they exceed in a certain
skill let's say um right but yeah we're sorry and no i was just listening i'm sorry oh okay
no you're good i thought you're gonna add something more to that but yeah i was just
thinking that it just didn't go anywhere but But yeah, it happens from time to time.
I'm sorry.
No, you're good.
It happens.
Oh, that's right.
I was going to ask you, are you on TikTok at all?
Or what other social medias should we follow you at?
I want to make sure we get out there.
What other places can we find besides, obviously, your Twitter profile?
Make sure everyone's following Homegrown Creations there.
But is there anywhere else that you want people to go to?
What if people are interested in your baked goods and they want some for themselves?
What's the best way they can go about reaching out to you?
The best way to do that is to DM me.
And the only account we still have open is a Facebook one.
And then, yeah.
So you can find us at Facebook.
I'm trying to thank this.
Homegrown creationists.
On Facebook.
Like our handle.
And then here on Twitter.
It's grown creations.
Because names get taken.
Right.
You got to be.
You got to be quick with that. on the draw about it and um and yeah that's
pretty much like so that's that's about as much time as i have for social media right and you
haven't hired that out yet no um nope um i i i it's been suggested to me to do the TikTok thing just for like my baking
videos and stuff.
But so you're on TikTok as well.
I have a teeny tiny little TikTok.
It's got like two things in it.
Like, I haven't really put it to use, but it's there.
Cool.
Cool. We'll have to follow's there. Cool. Cool.
We'll have to follow you there as well.
Yeah.
So is that on your, do you have like a link tree?
You should have a link tree at least homegrown.
Come on.
I have.
Okay.
So what I have is a popple.
I have a little popple that will send you my, you can link my menu or get a hold of me
or here, I'll just put it down
And it's a digital
It's a digital business card
And this is what I've been using
At events to like
How people find us and
What not
But it does not have my TikTok on it
But you can find our Facebook that way
Okay
So hold on 10 seconds here But you can find our Facebook that way. Oh, okay.
So hold on 10 seconds here.
No, you're good.
It's all good.
We're coming towards the end of the show, fam. I appreciate everyone still here in this space.
I see you, Ryan. It's good to see you buddy thanks for popping in
supporting we had a bunch of people earlier and they all left because i told them we weren't
doing a giveaway so like oh no just kidding they they probably had other obligations this is all
good we're winding down anyway we got we still got people on the live stream we got like 14 15
people over there we got a few people on the arena stream. We got like 14, 15 people over there.
We got a few people on the arena.
And then we also have people, I'm sure, over on Kik, which is similar to Twitch, which is also a live stream.
Oh, you know what?
I am on arena.
I occasionally spend time there.
Cool.
That's awesome.
I do have an account there.
On the way.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right. You should definitely check out the arena more. There's a lot of cool an account there. Oh, no way! Okay. All right.
You should definitely check out the arena more.
There's a lot of cool stuff over there.
They got live streaming now.
Can you believe that?
You can see people.
Oh, you can see each other?
Mm-hmm.
You can see.
Yeah, they have live streaming, like on Twitter.
You can, like, live stream your space.
Kind of what I'm doing right now, actually, on the live stream. Well, I've got, I've doxxed myself, so I have my little
person talking there. Little avatar. And then I've got
your page, actually, your profile open so people
can see that I'm spotlighting you, obviously,
for the space. But yeah, it's pretty cool. It's pretty cool. And then also
this direct copy is on kick
which is similar to twitch but it's actually better from what i've heard because twitch doesn't pay
out um their artists or their streamers like they should they very um they pay very minimally
compared to kick which has better rewards and they actually care about their artists and streamers on the platform.
This is what I've heard from other people's experiences with Twitch.
So I decided to do Kick instead.
And you know what? It's not too bad, you know, but I'm actually looking into Rumble.
I've heard some great things about Rumble live streaming.
It's a good alternative from YouTube.
And then also... It is a good alternative from YouTube um and then also it's a good alternative
from youtube and there's a lot of people on there oh you're on rumble or yeah i i've been on rumble
there was there was a at a time where i was watching podcasts on rumble but um yeah so
that's right people podcast on there.
Yeah, that makes sense.
That makes sense.
Similar to what we're doing here.
This is, well, I guess this is a live podcast, right?
But I will end up repackaging this and uploading it as a podcast in the near future.
So this will be your own little podcast episode homegrown creation so we got to make sure we get
the right link so i can add them to the podcast description and then people can go to you know
your twitter account and your facebook and stuff and uh you might get future sales from that you
know so any kind of promotion is good promotion especially in my book you know so
i'll make sure we got that fam this was an amazing amazing interview homegrown creations is there
anything else you want to say before we end this epic space of web three women wednesday
homegrown it's all yours just say thank you for having me. This has been a lot of fun.
I appreciate the time.
And yeah.
Stay listed.
DM me for a menu.
Oh, that's about what I got.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
That was great.
And website. and websites coming soon
everyone should have their website just like i'm a purple so i did post my popple and it has a
little bio about us and whatnot on there too that's right the popple card guys go to that
popple card that is her what was that your identity for your business like that's right the popple card guys go to that popple card that is her what was that your identity
for your business like that's how people find you it's just it's like an easy way to find us um um
it's it gives us a little like about us a little like heart about us and then you can find our Facebook and you can view our menu and do whatever through that.
Contact me.
You can send me a text through that.
Sweet.
I've never actually heard of this little app.
So it's kind of like Linktree or it's an alternative to Linktree.
I think it's more like a business card than link tree but i have a little qr code
that i keep on the back of my phone so when people are at the events with us and they ask
me for a business card i have them and that and it gives them access to our menu and they're able
to text me and they're able to like find our social media that we use. And this cuts down on needing business cards because those start to add up.
So you're showing trees.
This is true.
This is true.
We want to save all the trees.
Save the trees.
And we need to live to complete our missions on Earth.
Being Web3 full timetime, right, fam?
