We ask a few questions about your goals, preferences, and what you're looking for. You tell us as much or as little as you're comfortable sharing. We give you honest, expert recommendations and you decide what to do with them.

Who Leads Your Consultation
Your consultation is led by Cintia Lovo Arias — co-founder of Juana's Garden and one of the few hundred professionals worldwide to hold the Certified Ganjier™ designation from The Ganjier. The credential is modelled after master sommelier training in the wine world, covering cannabis cultivation, cannabinoid and terpene chemistry, sensory evaluation, and responsible consumption guidance — passing requires rigorous written examination and practical demonstration. For you, this means your consultation isn't a sales pitch. It's a genuine expert conversation from someone who has studied cannabis at a serious, scientific level and has no incentive to sell you something that isn't right for you.

Booking
Because our Certified Ganjier™ keeps a full and unpredictable schedule, consultations aren't offered through a calendar or on a walk-in basis. Email us and we'll find a time that works for both of you.
General shop hours are Everyday, 10am–7pm at 188 River St, Montpelier — but please note that consultation times are arranged individually in advance and are not available on a drop-in basis.
No. The consultation is genuinely no-pressure. You’ll leave with honest recommendations — what you do with them is entirely up to you. Some people book a consultation, get their questions answered, and come back another day. That’s completely fine with us.
