• Wind Holds: Use with caution. When the wind is blowing, tuck into the woods and seek shelter from the storm. 
• Tourism Tolerator:  Is your resort or town overrun with over-zealous out-of-towners? Spark up and remember eventually each of us will be the Kook of the Day one day. Today, however, is not that day. 
• Lost Dog: She’s Not Lost. She’s a husky. She’s, erm, exploring. Light up and remember she can only run 18 mph and last got tired in 2009. Here girl! 
• Apres: Don’t call last run. Take two and skip one. Recall the day and, sure, why not? Make that cliff 5 feet Chairlift: For experts only. Beware of windy days (see 1). The chairlift safety meeting is a classic of ski town lore. If your neighbor partakes, you can share. If they ask where the snow is good tell them Rainbow Bowl. It’s always good in Rainbow Bowl, man. 

The Dad Stash is our revolutionary stashing system that lets you hide your grass in plain sight. Each Dad Stash decoy sleeve makes your pack of Dad Grass joints look like a different unassuming everyday items. Our first few Stashes were designed to blend in perfectly to the most joint-critical home zones: The garage, living room and kitchen. Now we’re heading to the great outdoors.

Heads Up: If you really want to keep your Dad Grass (or anything, for that matter) away from your kids, parents or other sets of sticky fingers, try the classic ‘lock and key’ approach. Dad Stashes are not child-proof nor are they guaranteed to dupe everytime. 

Maybe it was in an old coffee can in the garage. Maybe it was wrapped in an old faded bandana, wedged between his favorite records. Either way, you probably knew, or at least suspected, that your dad liked to get high once in a while. And like any good Dad, he was always prepared. Along with the original vinyls, favorite drink and out-of-reach memorabilia, your dad’s stash of grass was there to keep his soul light and his head right.

You’re all grown up now and you probably have a stash of your own. If you’re lucky, you might even have a few perfectly rolled J’s from your friends at Dad Grass in there.  It’s reserved for slow-dances after date nights, long summer evenings with the neighbors or those rare moments of solitude and self reflection. It’s not for the kids. And certainly not for their friends.  You’ve got to keep some things sacred, so you try to keep your stash hidden away just like your Dad did.

As students of the ancient art of stashing grass, a tradition that dates all the way back to 8000BC, we’ve seen and tried it all. So believe us when we tell you that your secret spot probably isn’t a secret.  It may even be the first place they look! But there’s no need to stress. We’ve got you covered with our series of Dad Stashes, a revolutionary stashing system that lets you hide your grass in plain sight.
