Meet James Beard nominated Chef, bestselling author, cannabis culinary pioneer, podcast host, philanthropist, and mental health survivor– Jordan Wagman. 

Jordan’s unique culinary journey began over campfires in Northern Ontario and progressed to the kitchens of some of the top chefs in the culinary world.

At the age of 12, Jordan was diagnosed with Psoriasis, an often-debilitating autoimmune disease. He was hospitalized numerous times and took medication that would have lasting negative side effects 

Jordan realized at a young age that sunshine was a huge piece to his health puzzle – fast forward to 2014, and Jordan found the second piece;  a healthy diet. Following one meeting with a naturopath, Jordan removed gluten, dairy, and refined sugar from his diet and began consuming cannabis, and almost immediately, his life changed, and he began living a much healthier existence. 

Today, Jordan has a renewed focus on food, health, and wellness;  Jordan offers a unique chef’s table experience redefining cannabis-infused food, consults on the creation of CPG products, continues to write books, and speaks publicly while advocating for the normalcy of cannabis.
