What Are You Smoking?

Episode 46: CO2 Extraction with Heylo’s Lo Friesen



In this episode: 

This week on What Are You Smoking, Bailey and Emily are joined in the studio by Lo Friesen, CEO and lead extractor at Heylo, one of our favorite cannabis extraction companies in Washington.

Lo got her start in the cannabis industry designing CO2 extraction machines for Eden Labs before moving to the other side of the extractor to craft Heylo’s awesome cannabis oils. In today’s episode, we talk about how her company is highlighting the role terpenes play in the effects of cannabis, why Heylo only works with outdoor growers, and the work her team is doing to make Green Crack less polarizing.

You can also see what Heylo’s team is up to in our recent photo essay on their operation!
