Your guide to keeping your edibles safe in the AZ heat

Melt happens.

Your edibles don’t have to suffer. Learn how to outsmart the AZ heat. 

Living in Arizona means knowing how to treat 120º temps like just another Tuesday. We time our errands to avoid the sun, have “car oven” horror stories, and can practically feel our skin sizzle when we walk outside. While we’ve all learned to adapt—our edibles? Not so much. 

Sticky situations? Not on our watch. At Giving Tree, we’ve got tips to keep your stash safe and your vibes high. 

We’ve all been there. 

Picture it: You’re out for the day—maybe hiking, maybe running errands, maybe just trying to survive in the grocery store parking lot. You reach into your bag to grab your favorite infused treat… only to find a sticky, shapeless, sweet-scented puddle. 

Your vibe? Crushed. Your dose? A mystery. Your bag? Ruined. 

It’s the ultimate Arizona summer betrayal—and we want to make sure it never happens again. 

Why edible meltdowns are more than just messy. 

It’s not just about the mess (though that alone is tragic). When your edibles overheat, a few things can happen that are not it: 

• THC is heat-sensitive: High temps and sun exposure can cause THC to degrade, meaning your edible might not hit like it’s supposed to. 

• Melting = dosage guesswork: If your goodies fuse into one edible blob, it’s impossible to know how much THC is in each bite. You lose control of your experience—and that’s not what we’re about. 

Keep your edibles cool: Pro tips from your Giving Tree crew. 

We got you. Here’s how to outsmart the heat and keep your treats in perfect shape: 

• Use airtight, childproof, opaque containers – These keep light and air out, which helps your edibles stay potent and fresh. 

• Store in a cool, dry place – Humidity and heat are not edible-friendly, so avoid steamy bathrooms, warm backpacks, or the side pocket of your gym bag. 

• Never leave edibles in the car – Even in spring or fall, car temps spike fast. It’s like leaving them in an oven. 

• Travel smart – If you’re on the go, stash your stash in an insulated bag or small cooler with an ice pack. It’s the chill upgrade your edibles deserve.
