FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Smokey’s Provides COVID-19 Operational Update
Smokey’s continued efforts to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our community.
GARDEN CITY. COLORADO APRIL 14, 2020 - CCWC (“Smokey’s” or “Smokey’s Cannabis Co.”), a leading cannabis influencer in Northern Colorado provides an update in regards to the impact from the COVID-19 virus outbreak and its current operations.
On March 11, 2020, the governor issued executive order 2020 003 “ Declaring a Disaster Emergency Due to the Presence of Coronavirus Disease in Colorado.” The State Licensing Authority adopted Emergency Rules on March 20, 2020. The purpose of the Emergency Rules is to limit exposure to and mitigate harm caused by COVID-19, by allowing Regulated Marijuana Businesses to implement ”social distancing” and related measures consistent with guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
Smokey’s has been preventative from the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak in our community. On March 15, taking guidance from local authorities and the CDC Smokey’s started to implement extra precautions including additional cleaning and sanitizing practices. Part of their new efforts included wiping door handles, chairs, ATM, counters, chairs, tables, and any other community surface areas with disinfectants, using hand sanitizer between every sale, and requesting that guests vigorously use best-practices hand washing techniques, avoid touching their face/eyes/mouth, no shaking hands, etc.
Smokey’s also started a campaign focusing on online ordering to allow guests a safer option to avoid the risk of exposure in their stores. Smokey’s issued a public announcement about the preventative measures it was taking at that time. These preventative measures were to cancel all instore events, reschedule in-person meetings with a phone or online meeting, and start a COVID-19 Action Plan that outlined guidelines from the CDC and WHO for best practices during this crisis.
Extensive signage is placed both inside and outside facilities notifying employees, patients and customers of CDC, CDPHE and local guidelines and requirements to prevent the spread. Smokey’s also started an ongoing social media campaign focusing on ways our community can help fight the spread of the virus.
If a Smokey’s employee should fall ill with COVID-19, they will be provided sick leave and no administrative action will be taken. Smokey’s encourages its employees to be mindful during these hard times and has supplied them with mental health options and links to other health-related topics. Smokey’s is also offering extra PTO to help mitigate some of the economic hardships their employees may have if they or a family member were to fall ill.
March 18th, Smokey’s announced shorter hours and more precautionary measures including the use of air filtration in the lobbies, the elimination of “Smell Jars,” enforcing social distancing and a reduction in swing shifts to reduce the number of staff members in the stores. Smokey’s also started allowing non-essential employees to work from home whenever possible.
On March 20 the MED issued an Industry-Wide Bulletin: 20-03 RE: Guidance Regarding Emergency Rules in Response to COVID-19. In this bulletin, the MED started to outline “curbside” pickup for dispensaries and Smokey’s was quick to adapt to this new rule by adding a phone line for guests to order from. As the MED rules change Smokey’s continued to provide superior service to its customers during this transition. Adhering to all of the current MED regulations Smokey’s has created an efficient “curbside” pickup solution that incorporates the safety guidelines of Social Distancing and their ongoing effort to keep the stores sterilized and up to the standards of the CDC and WHO.
March 25, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis declared a stay-at-home order, beginning March 26 deeming Retail Marijuana Stores essential businesses. This declaration made it more apparent the impact cannabis has on our communities and how important it is to keep public health into consideration at all times. Smokey’s continues to further its understanding of how to help combat this virus to protect our community and the future of Colorado’s cannabis industry.
Smokey’s Cannabis Co. plays an imperative role in the Northern Colorado cannabis industry and is committed to remaining open to serve the community and guests. Where possible employees are working from home and others are adhering to the strict CDC guidelines of social distancing to ensure the safety of their staff.
Smokey’s Cannabis Co. has been focused on responsible adult cannabis use for over 10 years. Smokey’s has been recognized nationally in 2019 by MJBizDaily for sustainability efforts in the cannabis community. Smokey’s practices a natural growing technique called “Living Soil” that allows for a cleaner healthier plant, and more robust crops without the use of chemicals or other hazardous materials.

Living Soil: What It Is and Why It Matters to You
Organic products are a popular choice for health-conscious consumers and those interested in protecting the environment. The living soil movement is dedicated to providing a truly organic experience for those who use marijuana as medicine or for adult use purposes. By considering the benefits of living soil when choosing Adult Use (rec) marijuana services in Garden City or Fort Collins Colorado, you can ensure the best experience every time you light up in our area.
What Is Living Soil?
Organic farming typically focuses most on what needs to be left out of the process, including chemical/ synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers. By contrast, the living soil movement considers the soil in a more holistic way. By making sure that soil contains the living creatures needed to break down organic matter into the necessary nutrients, living soil advocates can produce healthier and more robust crops without the use of chemicals or other hazardous materials. This can make a significant difference in the quality of product you receive from companies offering marijuana dispensary services in Colorado and beyond.
The Cannabis Effect: There's More to it Than THC
The cannabis industry is evolving steadily after a rapid growth spurt of legalization. Gone are the days of purchasing whatever strain a supplier has on hand. Instead, consumers today have countless strains, concentrates, and edibles to choose from, allowing them to be incredibly selective and specific about what kind of high they experience.
Anyone who enjoys the legal cannabis industry is probably used to noting two main things when making a purchase at their local dispensary: the THC content and the sativa/indica ratio of the product.
Casual cannabis users typically believe that the higher the THC content is, the stronger and more intense the high will be. Likewise, they also figure that sativas will all perk them up while all indicas will mellow them out.
While these beliefs are incredibly common, the truth is that they oversimplify how and why a specific weed strain produces a unique feeling.
You’ve most likely smoked a strain of sativa that left you a tad anxious, while other sativas leave you happy, energized, and ready to tackle the day. The same goes for indica. Some strains are great for relaxing and watching a flick, while others will put you right to bed. Similarly, you’ve probably heard a friend rave about a strain that just didn’t do much for you.
In order to understand these varied experiences, it’s important to remember that cannabis is a wonderfully complex plant.

It’s Not Just About THC
Budtenders at Smokey’s 420 are continuously trained with the most recent information available based on real studies and science regarding product’s THC content. It’s how many cannabis consumers decide which product to buy. Why wouldn’t you choose the strain with the highest amount of THC? Isn’t that more bang for your buck?
If this is the logic you’ve been using, keep in mind that THC content is only one indicator of how a strain or product will make you feel. Choosing your weed based solely on this factor is often compared to going to a liquor store with the mission of selecting the booze with the highest alcohol content.
There’s a reason no one does this; there’s far more to enjoy a good drink than how much alcohol it contains. Just as a sommelier will pick their wine based on a myriad of factors, true cannabis connoisseurs will pay attention to the entire makeup of the product, not just a single element.
A major influence on how strong and how unique a high will feel is based on the presence and concentration of certain terpenes.
