Welcome back to MERRY JANE’s Goods of the Month, a column where we highlight the staff’s favorite cutting-edge products, innovations, and updates in the world of weed. We smoke a lot of pot here — and we’re always itching to try the latest and greatest stuff that fits under the 420 umbrella.

This Sunday is Father’s Day (incase you forgot!), and we want show some love to dads who are down with the dank. First though, we want to emphasize something that troubles our staff: There are countless cannabis brands tailored to “marijuana moms” (sometimes glibly described as former “Chardonnay moms”), while there are noticeably less products that are explicitly marketed towards male-identifying parents. 

We believe this is due to the pervasive misogyny that seeps into every facet of American culture, and how women are stigmatized for using cannabis in ways that men do not face. Therefore, companies believe they need to peddle their products to femme folks in specialized or nuanced ways — while every other product is apparently acceptible for men? It’s weird, right? Why do we need to market cannabis in particular ways to women, especially mothers? It often feels patronizing and belittling — as if cannabis consumption were entirely different acts for men and women. 

Sure, there are male-targeted brands like Dad Grass, but the fact that such a company even exists speaks to how the cannabis landscape is still a gendered space with plenty of patriarchal baggage weighing it down. The idea that men consume cannabis — whether recreationally or medicinally — differently from femme-identifying people is flawed. Cannabis is for everyone, and it’s worth emphasizing that no two consumers will experience its wonders in the same way. To say that “dads will like this and moms will like that” is bullshit, and we do not want to perpetuate such a schism. 

As such, the following products were chosen because they rule no matter who you are — whether a mom, a dad, or someone who has kids but doesn’t identify with any particular gender label. Enjoy, and may your parents enjoy the pleasures of pot without being pigeonholed! 

Zig-Zag

Zig-Zag papers have a legacy. They’ve been around since the stone age! Just kidding. But, they have been around since 1879, making them the oldest rolling paper crew in the game. So, realistically, your ‘rents probably already know what Zig-Zags are.

What better gift to share this Father’s Day than a Zig-Zag OG Bundle, which contains a rolling tray, two different sized rolling machines, and papers. The name says it all, it’s designed, crafted, and pieced together with your pops in mind — the real OGs in your life! Nothing says I love you like the nostalgia that comes along with the Zig-Zag papers your pops started with.

DaVinci Vapor:

If your dad likes flower and concentrates equally, you should treat him to a gift that offers the best of both worlds. The DaVinci IQ2 is a top of the line dry-herb vape that’s compatible with extracts, too. 

It’s cannabis technology at it’s finest, really. The IQ2 also comes with a handy array of accessories allowing you to choose how you want to vape. But, DaVinci offers more than just the IQ2. If your pops doesn’t smoke concentrates, you can give him the IQ, which is a dry-herb vape designed to enhance (and protect) the flavor of your product. The MIQRO, a compact dry-herb vape that’s designed for ultimate stealthiness, is another good option too!

Farmer and the Felon Cannabis Co.

Weed is a gift from the Universe. That’s why it will always be a reliable present. Nothing says “I love you” or “let’s be friends” or “I’m sorry for all the bullshit I put you through in high school” more than giving someone cannabis.

The nugs are plump, tasty, aromatic, and deliver a high that makes you feel good even after you’ve come down. A portion of the proceeds for every purchase goes towards freeing non-violent cannabis offenders form prison. It’s the best bang for your buck — not only are you giving your pops a great gift, you’re also giving your money to the most important issue in cannabis. So, while a bouquet of roses might not be an ideal Father’s Day gift for your dad, getting your pops a skunky bouquet of “flower” is a totally different story.
