Medical and Recreational Marijuana
The Compassion Flower Inn, an 1860's Gothic Revival Victorian Home, was lovingly restored by the Tischlers and a large number of hempsters and friends from the community. An artist who beautifully transforms whatever she touches, Maria Mallek-Tischler's creativity is visible throughout the home. Each room is a visual fantasy of faux finishes, unique stencils and mosaic art of passion flowers and hemp leaves intertwined. Upstairs, there are four unique bedrooms, including the intimate "Lover's Suite" with its sunken tub and the cozy "Hemp Room" with its hemp leaf decor.
