Tucson Doobie’s Extrava-Ganja: Cannabis, Food, Laughs & More

May 16, 20242 min read

Friday, May 31 is the inauguration of Tucson Doobie’s monthly events! Aptly dubbed the “Extrava-Ganja”, these events feature unique themes and experiences. Designed with the cannabis connoisseur in mind, Tucson Doobie brings together select cannabis brands, DJs, classes, shows, and more. 

From 6 – 8 p.m. on Friday, May 31 at Moroso Wellness Studio, 2231 S. Fourth Ave., attendees will be treated to free cannabis from sponsors D2 Dispensary and Sol Flower Dispensary.

Vape, dab, or smoke your way into the night and cure your munchies with delicious Neopolitan-style pizza from Bailey’s Artisan Pizza. Expect other treats as well, like homemade ice cream by Dr. Heather Moroso (enjoy medicated or non-medicated) and housemade aguas frescas. 

In addition, expect a sneak peek of Dr. Moroso’s new apothecary product line.

Over a decade in the making, Dr. Moroso has been utilizing local plants and CBD to craft nourishing and medicated salves, tinctures, sprays, lotions, shampoos, and more. Although the launch of her BoticArizona product line is a couple of months away, attendees will get to try her products and learn more about our region’s native plants and their medicinal benefits.

Get there by 6:30 p.m. for a live and interactive CBD salve demo class and learn Dr. Moroso’s process. You even get to take samples home! 

Woman-ing the mic is Priscilla Fernandez of Lady HaHa Comedy. They were voted Tucson Weekly’s “Best Comedian of 2024” so expect side-splitting laughter to enhance your high.  

Tucson Doobie is also proud to feature Music with a Purpose, led by veteran DJ of deep house beats DJ  Doc Zion. Music with a Purpose’s mission is to support Healing Frontline Heroes, a non-profit that provides access to indigenous plant medicine for vets and first responders through partnerships with the Seri Comcaac Nation in Sonora, Mexico.

With their help, veterans are able to access Bufo, psilocybin, and other important therapies. 

There will also be vendors like The Desert Alchemist, Simply Professional Formula, Eco Gro, Healing Frontline Heroes, and more. 

Tickets are $15 in advance, $20 at the door, and can be purchased here. If you’re a Tucson Doobie Insider, you get in free and enjoy additional perks from Tucson Doobie!

Tucson Doobie is a new community for cannabis lovers. In addition to exclusive freebies and discounts found in their Mobile App, members can access these monthly events for free. Download the app here! To keep up with the latest, follow Tucson Doobie on Instagram.

Tucson Doobie’s Extrava-Ganja will be hosted at Moroso Wellness Studio, 2231 S. Fourth Ave.

IOU Sushi III has closed.

The post continued, “we have met some great friends who have become family to us.” Tucson Foodie first visited the restaurant in 2017, when it operated as IOU Sushi IV.

Anne Rysdale built @sheltercocktaillounge in 1961 with concrete walls, lava rock, and Cold War nerves. Today, owners Pam Santangelo and Kevin Breutzmann keep the Tucson bar exactly as regulars remember it. Inside, martinis share space with JFK memorabilia, a vintage atomic chandelier, and a suit of armor named Charlie. “Tucson is changing so much, but this has stayed the same. It’s a time capsule,” Santangelo said.

Scratch-made Japanese ramen goes far beyond instant noodles, with rich broths like tonkotsu, miso, and shoyu. Tucson has more specialty ramen shops than you might expect. Here’s where to find them around town.🍜
